State of the MFF preparations
14 years ago
Okay so
I have MOST of the things I wanted ready done. Unfortunately, because of an issue with the printer I selected, I have to drop three of my intended prints, including the Kyogre picture. There's still 13 different pictures, though I am not sure I'll find opportunity to trim them all before the con.
I don't have a vinyl banner like most of the cool kids so I will probably look really silly; however I would much rather prepare a good one for next time than slap one together for this one.
As far as I am aware, the Housepets books will be arriving at the hotel today; there is no way I could take that weight on the airplane. I have some other goodies ready or nearly ready; the bookmarks and acrylic tags. Should also have a big box of old sketches for sale.
In all, I have spent around $1000 in prep for this con, most of that going toward the books. They'll cost $15 at the con, but that comes with a free bookmark and signature.
Seriously I am super nervous because I haven't done this before. I don't know what to expect, nor even how much of a return on my investment I can anticipate.

Also, I'm gonna be completely random here and say that you should get a fursuit of King. That way Carwyn and King can be all cool together. :P
Probably also worth making a few foldable stands to sit on your table so that people passing by your table can see your artwork (and prices) from a distance (as you won't have a banner), after that the art will sell itself!
I hope to get at least one lap in dealers, though I do hope to make it into AA every day if I can.
I'm looking forward to complimenting your work face to face, as are a lot of fans. You'll be okay.
And most of all, I hope you have a great time and enjoy yourself.
I hope that you have an absolutely awesome time at MFF. It will be good to see you again =)
((and omfgh. YES. con-prep is expeeeeeeensive! \|'S ))
