BONER SQUAD: A Post AC report
12 years ago
So, this year was the first year I had a dealer's table, as well as the first year I worked all the way through it. And I am exhausted as fuck.
Thankfully, it was a pretty drama-free con for me. Had a lot of fun if sometimes labor-intensive commissions (sketches they may have been, but there's a lot of effort involved in drawing shitloads of power armor) and even had some homework to do, plus a pile of other busts and whatnot I had to take before the con to pay for stuff, PLUS I'm moving in a couple weeks, so needless to say I'm gonna be BUSY AS HELL for a little bit. I might even have to take on a little more work to make up for the fact that my shirt sales didnt go that great and I had to pay out of pocket for the shirts. On the plus side, I can sell them (go here http://www.cobaltpulsar.com/store/i.....amp;cPath=5_12 ) and I don't have to pay for them again. I just really wish I was able to come home with a bit more money for the move. So who knows, maybe I'll open up for a few busts in the coming days.
So, that's business. Now the pleasure. I had a lot of fun. Lots of new peeps, but seemingly less and less of the old faces. I was a little bummed about all the peeps that didn't make it out this year. On the upside, there were a few unexpected faces (I'm lookin at you [koh] ) that I was glad to see, and even better many magical room moments (cooper, caltroplay, fluffkevlar and acehusky ) and that unforgettable graffiti on the concrete barrier between the Omni and the Westin (if you were there, you probably know what I'm talkin about). I was actually really excited to contribute to roxicat's sketchbook and get some work done by gunmouth and my local friend sererena (whom NEEDS TO POST MORE SHIT IN HER GALLERY DAMMIT ESPECIALLY THOSE BADGES YOU WERE DOING YOU AWESOME ARTISTLADY! (seriously, beautiful work, skilled, and cute as hell)). I even ended up makin a few new friends as well, and I guess my fires of imagination have been stoked a bit. But that last part might need to wait a little bit while I get all this work done.
Overall, pretty good con. And now if you don't mind, I'mma go pass the fuck out cuz I'm tired as hell and have a lotta stuff to do in the coming days.
