Artist Alley success
10 years ago
Hey everyone!
So as most of you know, I attending Q-con last weekend for the 5th year in a row, and this is the 3rd time I've done the Artist Alley! It was so fun meeting some of you guys IRL, and some of my artist friends <3
For the most part, it was a success! I learned a lot about what's popular amoung the general geek population and what people like to buy!
The Five Nights at Freddy's chibis sold very well. Heck, I sold out of the button set within the first hour or so. !!
Pokemon, as usual, was very popular with all sorts of people, younger, older, loyal players and old fans. And this year I had more variety so that was neat! Although I definately need to keep working on drawing ALL the Pokemon! I had some people ask for their favourites. Arcanine, Mew, Dragonite, sylveon, vulpix, mewtwo, jigglypuff.... they were all popular and I dont have chibs of them yet :'c I'll fix that asap!!
Stickers were probably my most popular item. Probably down to the amount of variety I had this year (60+ characters/designs) Also because I offered the buy 2 get 1 free deal!
Mystery bags were hella popular too! It was my first time offering something like that, so I was skeptical if they would do well at all. But people liked the surprise!
Basically, I offered a bag that held £10 worth of art goodies, but you only paid £5. I would ask what fandoms the buyer loved, and what items they defiantely DID NOT WANT, so that way they would like everything they got ;v;
And, as always I will offer what remains to my international buyers!
Stay tuned for discounts and goodies!
