FrostCon Artist Alley - need opinions
11 years ago
Hello my darlingsIve signed up for an artist alley table for frostcon 2015 (on my birthday!) dont know if ive got a spot yet though.
its a small canadian anime con, in toronto i think, though i think its moved so im not exactly sure
so ill be working on things to sell as prints soon, and already am.
Im thinking (if i can) im going to be selling large and small prints, book marks with little dangly things on them, buttons and t-shirts. My uncle owns a printing company so prints and book marks are very doable, but im not sure if he has a button maker there (and i definitely cant afford one) and as for the shirts it would have to depend on how much it would cost me to make them.
for prices im thinking of charging average con prices for things:
large prints $15, 2 for $25
small prints $5
book marks $3-$5 (depending on the cost of materials)
shirts $20
buttons $1-$3
I was also thinking of selling cosplay prints from my shoots as i should have gotten at least 2 professional shoots with 2 different cosplays by then, at maybe $10 each
I had been planning on making a chibi for every character that ive cosplayed thus far, but now that im doing this I should probably do some other more popular characters too.
Characters that I plan to draw so far are : stocking (and maybe panty), shampoo, etna, hachikuji, kanbaru, kagami hiiragi, suzuko akb, taokaka, louise, chii, nagisa momoe, hibari, nyaruko, azunyan, sailor moon, simca (some of those i havent cosplayed yet but am planning to this year)
what other characters should i draw?
These are drawings that i have so far that i think might be okay to sell or redo/edit and sell, what do you think? which ones should be cut? which one(s) would you buy if you saw a print of it at a con? Which of these do you think should be printed onto shirts?
