Animethon Report and more Raven Wolf news
13 years ago
Well animethon is finally done and over with, thank you everyone that came down to my table in artist alley =) I really appreciate the support.
Even though I was dead tired and didn’t get all my notebooks done in time (I was still coiling notebooks all through the convention) I had a lot of fun there, unfortunately I was limited to only artist alley so I missed out on the dealers room and panels, but I met and exchanged info with a couple of really cool artists ^^ sold lots of my notebooks keychains and books marks this year too =) I even had Cathy Weseluck (Spike’s VA from MLP) who was a guest at the convention, come by my table and say some really positive things about my MLP art and notebooks ^^ so I was really flattered, though she seemed a little disappointed that there was no Spike (I felt so bad for not drawing one at that point too)
Though it was a decent enough year for sales I still have a lot of notebooks, keychains, bookmarks and buttons left over from the convention, so I’ll soon be putting those up online to sell for those that were not able to make it to the convention or had a lack of funds by the time they got to my table. (For those of you that may or may not have noticed, my online shop for my website is under construction at the moment, but will hopefully be up soon, I’ll be posting updates in my journals as things are added to it)
There are a few notebooks that I sold out of (most notably MLP’s small Pinkie Pie, small Fluttershy and all sizes of Derpy) , if I do decide to reprint them I will unfortunately not be able to get to them until I re-supply on all the materials I need to make them =x
With conventions done though I will be able to get back to working on Raven Wolf chapters and comic pages as well as commissions (which I keep TRYING to do but can never fit in with all the prep work I’ve been doing to prepare my stuff to sell at conventions)
For those of you that read the novel of Raven Wolf the next chapter of the Origin side chapters as well as the first chapter for Book 5 will be up soon after this journal is posted, just gonna do one more read through over them to make sure everything is right before I post them =)
For those waiting on the next page of the comic I’m hoping to have that done and up by tomorrow, very sorry about the delays for that.
For those who follow my other two projects, “The Newlyweds Next-Door” and “The Zimiko Knights” I’ m hoping to soon resume work on the comics for those as well, and maybe get the next novel chapter for NN-D up as well, we’ll see how that goes as I’ll probably be spending a lot of time setting up an online shop to sell my convention leftovers.
Also, one last thing before I go for all you Raven Wolf fans. This year I made a few Raven Wolf prints, including shaped character bookmarks of the cast for book 1 of Raven Wolf, and I was thinking of holding a contest for those who would like to win the complete set =) be sure to drop a few ideas on what you think the contest should be, I was thinking of a fanart or fiction contest but then not everyone would be able to take part, so any suggestions would be great =)
For those wondering what those bookmarks look like here is a photo
