Description My friend managed to get this great picture of me at my Otakon Artists Alley Table last weekend (which is impressive, as I usually look like a derp in most photos. XP)

I shared two tables with (Love you guys! X3) Who all had great products for sale and fabulous displays. A lot of them also take commissions, so please think about giving them some support, if you're interested.

I also want to mention and , who were awesome table neighbors.

You may recognize a few images from my gallery above my head. XD Also, the upper 25% of my Sebastian cosplay made an appearance in this picture. My Sebastian and Grell print was my top seller [link] but I got a ton of really nice feedback on my Gankutsuou print [link]
I honestly didn't sell nearly as well as I'd hoped, which disappointed me a bit, but it was still an incredible experience and I had a great time hanging out with everyone at the table. The other nice thing about the table was that I got to meet and talk with a ton of wonderful people, which is hard to do when you're just wandering around the con. So thank you so much to everyone who bought a print or stopped by to say hi. It meant the world to me. And, if you took my business card, feel free to talk to me on DA anytime.

We're all probably going to sell our leftover prints at Setsucon at Penn State in February, or sooner, if we find another con. And, as usual, I'm taking commissions, if anyone is looking. [link] Sorry for the rambling, and thanks as always for your support!

Thanks again, for snapping this picture!

I'll be there again too this year, just not as a dealer. I'm sure you have fun. It's a great time.

Lol, I keep noticing him. XD He's just so excited... I know, I can't wait to have everybody together at school again. XD

Hey, not a problem! It was a definitely pleasure meeting up with you and your fellow tablemates again for the summer.

See you again soon!

I know, I'm glad that I got to hang out with you at the con. I was worried I wouldn't be able to see anyone if was stuck at the table the whole time. DX Anyway, Manga Club will soon be back in session! XD

I can't believe it's all over already, wow. I kinda wish i had a picture of My part-even though I was hidden behind the column of art. I think the one at State College will be better, for all of us in terms of sales.

Also, I'd like to commission an incredibly girly man, dining on the entrails of a child who spurns the company of women.

Not to be a complete moron, and ignore the premise of this Dev, but look at the expression of the person in the background. Holy shit, they're excited.

Meiseki In reply to Ageaus [2010-08-07 18:45:08 +0000 UTC]

I didn't even think to get a picture either until Kevin offered to take one. I think we'll sell much better at Setsucon, too. Lol,but I'll probably hate all of my prints by then. XD

Lol! I can do that. XD As long as we're doing commissions, I'd like you to draw my 1/2 unicorn, 1/5 kitsune, 1/24 sparkle dog anthro. Also, I want it set during the 3rd Crusade, but I'd like him wearing a PSU sweatshirt and lederhosen. Oh, and I want him transforming into a dragon, so don't forget the erection.

Lol, isn't he? XD I keep noticing him in the background.

Meiseki In reply to DragoonWarrior [2010-08-07 18:47:38 +0000 UTC]

Thank you! I think this may, sadly, be the best picture I have of it...

Actually, they didn't really sell well at all... T-T The Kuroshitsuji and Gankutsuou sold the most, but overall I hardly sold anything. DX I'm hoping to do better at the PSU convention in the winter, because I have a ton of leftovers.

I know! I still can't believe you're in freaking Florida! DX You should let me know if you ever plan to go to Pittsburgh to visit again. Maybe I could try to meet you, if you did. Lol, it wouldn't kill me to see my Dad, either. I kind of want to go to Tekkoshokon, this year, too, if it's feasible.

when is tekko! I really want to see you again!! T_T I miss you so much! -heartbroken-

They didnt sell that well?? > Whats wrong with people. lol.. Well, did you at least make some sorta profit? If you can sell the leftovers I am sure it would be at least some help It did sound like you met a lot of people though!

You should come visit me in Florida!

I need my claire-sebas-chan X33333 <3<3

It doesn't look like the dates for Tekko are up yet. I'll keep checking, though. Last year it was early April.

I dunno... Otakon is more of a dealers room con, anyway, but maybe I just suck teh ass. >_<; Who knows. I think we'll all do better at Setsucon, though. It was definitely nice being able to hang out and talk to people for a change.

I know, it's been way too long... T-T We'll have to try and work out a visit at some point.

A few friends I know went to a con down here called AFO. I decided not to go cause I dont really have a group to hang out with and don't wanna burden them. Anyway, one of them had an art table just like you did. Is it really so bad to just talk with the artists? XD I was told never to spend more than 5 mins speaking with artists in artist alley cause they hate it and it drives away customers. :< Made me sad. lol

Meiseki In reply to DragoonWarrior [2010-08-10 05:12:33 +0000 UTC]

Really? Huh. I never heard that one, but I guess it makes since... I had a number of people just come up to chat with me for a good while, and I was glad to have it... I even made friends with one guy who came back to hang out every day for like half an hour. Lol, maybe I just didn't mind because I didn't have any customers anyway. XD
