I'm back from FWA!
9 years ago
General
I'm breaking my self-imposed vow not to post any more art on FA just this once. I still feel like this site just doesn't respond to its users' concerns well enough, and there's been enough questionable behavior with staff and mods that I really just want to keep activity here to a minimum.
That being said, this is still the site that almost everyone uses (uuuuugh), and I love these FWA pictures so much. I want as many people as possible to enjoy them too. So here they'll be, along with my regular haunts!

I had a TOTAL blast at FWA. My roomies were awesome, I got to make a few new friends, I got a lovely new badge, and ate at some really amazing restaurants! I looooved the Varsity, I had heard so much about it I basically convinced Ceralor and Jaeson to come along with me, and while it turned out they'd never been either they both agreed it was awesome too. <3 <3 <3
I only sold two commissions. There was a lot of competition at Artist's Alley, and sadly but not unexpectedly since I didn't have any coloring options I didn't really catch many peoples' eyes. But I got a lot of feedback saying my lineart was nice. :) I sold a commission to
Jason-Tripps, and he ended up liking it so much that he got a second one from me on Saturday. I was really flattered by how much he told me he liked them!
I had to go back early, driving to NC on Saturday night, cause my rockhounding club's gem show was that same weekend and I wanted to at least attend for just one day. It was dark and a bit lonely but the drive back didn't seem to take as long as the drive down (the anticipation didn't help, I guess, haha), and although the wind was blowing like crazy it wasn't unsafe or anything. I got a few hours of sleep before heading to the show later that morning.
I spent some more money on gems. :3c and although turnout was WAY down compared with last year, I still had a lot of fun and took a lot of pics. I'm gonna try and compile a field trip report to share on reddit.
Anyway, I'm getting around to posting my art now. Four wonderful pieces by
Gideon and Jinti. I don't know when I'll be able to meet Gideon next, and I've ALWAYS wanted stuff from him, so I couldn't help but get as many pics as I could afford. They all turned out to be GORGEOUS. <3

One of these days i'll join you in one of these cons... but for now, oi! too much work and not enough money!!
But, now i have a job, though that tends to make going to a Con difficult. XD Regardless, i still dont have the money, too many bills and things to catch up on, as well as get another move under way, first.
