Back From FanExpo 2011
14 years ago
Hey everyone. Well I am back from the 4 days of FanExpo. Gotta say I am not used to a 4 day convention. Still recovering a little bit. Well Tru Vibes Track 2 sold pretty well and I'm happy the people enjoyed the book. I was seated next to Sara Richard at the con and she told me it was her first time attending to FanExpo. She is a really cool person and her art is super awesome amazing. I had fun chatting with her and she gave some pretty damn good advice. Also to my left was the awesome Marc Wolfe. At first I was a little intimidated but he is a real nice guy and he is pretty damn hilarious. Sitting across from was Kurt Lehner. He has worked on Ned's Newt, Cadillac's and Dinosaurs and Gargoyles. That dude was super funny and easy to talk to and also gave me some really good advise on my art. He also inspired me to start a portfolio. I never really did one like I did one during school but it didn't look as good as I want it to. I plan on starting a portfolio and get it done by the end of the year. I gotta say I have learned a lot at this convention and I do plan on doing a lot more art work for next year. I have also learned that people will come to your table more when you have your original art out on the table. I met Alvin Lee and we mostly talked about MVC3 lol. He told me he played some of his fans and they schooled him and I mean really schooled him. We had a good laugh about it and he signed my Special Edition MVC3 case. I also headed to the Udon table to chat with Omar Dogan. I haven't spoken to him in a long time. We caught up with some stuff and conversed about a few things. I bought 2 prints off him that look damn good. I think what was really cool was that Omar stopped by my table, I thought that was pretty damn cool. One of the highlight of the weekend was that I ran into a really good friend of mine who I went to high school with. Me and her would skip class to draw, was so awesome to know that she was still drawing and she has gotten so much better since the last time I saw her. Also found out that she was on DA so here's her page here http://lithium-tears.deviantart.com/. I also met up with my old convention friends at Geo and Lidia. Everytime we all chill it's always a riot. Geo and I are planning on making a God Of War Spoof one day. But gotta say my good friend Aaron Ong had a table for Phoenix Diaries and he the poster he did for it was friggin amazing! Me and him hang out as well to chatted a whole lot about everything :D
Well That was pretty much what happen at FanExpo2011 and I hope I can do better next year.
Well Peace out everyone :D
