Back from Eurofurence
9 years ago
General
Came back yesterday from EF22. It was really fun once again, a bit ups and downs, mainly had issues finding people because both the wifi and my phone were bad. I got to get a new phone for next EF.
So this EF I met
and
. Both amazing hyper artists I look up to and recently started to chat with online. First time I meet them in person was really nice, we're kinda decent friends now I think. Was drawing at the same table and did a few trades with them. There aren't really any other hyper artists at Eurofurence aside from
that I know of so it's nice not being the only one this time. Oh and of course also met Redsilver's friend who draws macro things I think.
I couldn't really choose which panels I would follow and which I would skip. One nice one was Fast Furry Friends which was kinda like speed dating but more like you try to make friends in 5 min than switch to another person. A few of the people there I became friends with.
Than there was a furry anatomy panel which was really bad. The person is a pro furry artist for 23 years and what I saw was not anatomy at all. It was a method of mass producing generic furry art. It made me really annoyed, I should've just left halfway but I don't like to interrupt panels on the other hand.
On the other hand it makes me more confident in my own style because I know I can develop pretty much any kind of figure with the way I draw gestures and everything, I can draw more detailed things. It's taking me a while to figure out how to draw but at least I know I will become a lot better than that if I keep practicing.
Actually some people notice that I draw hips well, I still have trouble with hips but I'm happy that it's recognizable that I put a lot of work into it.
Actually later that day after the furry anatomy panel I randomly noticed another amazing artist at the artist lounge just as I was about to go back to my hotel. It's
he does a lot of very detailed anatomy practice
Saw
again but just like last year he's drowning himself into even more work, didn't had time outside Dealers Den to meet.
Drew a Lucario with massive hips for the guy with a awesome Lucario hat that was also drawing Lucarios: http://danwolf15.deviantart.com/

Went out eating a bit with one of my new friends and his friends which was one of the most enjoyable parts for me.
Tried to sit down in artist alley to do commissions but no luck there.
And I guess I walked around for the most part checking out all these nice fursuits. I thought I found
, was to anxious to ask but after a few times I finally dared, I got confused when a male voice came out of that suit, apparently he bought that suit from her. I didn't even knew she had it before.
I also saw this suiter: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u.....0is%20cute.jpg Only a few times but I mean I have a fetish for big hips and this suit has exactly that. Female suiter but the character is supposed to be male so that gets extra points.
More videos I made of the suit: https://twitter.com/Raikuen/status/.....80963594547200

The suiter is http://swarthylacine.deviantart.com/ and the suit's name is Nigiri.
Big hipped sushi dog! Wanted to give them a drawing during the convention but had no luck finding them again.
Expect that a bit later.
And that's roughly EF22 for me.
Going after my study now as I still don't know if I'm actually even following any minor now.
Otherwise resting a bit, didn't get much sleep.

FA+

Yea still sleep issues but feel pretty fulfilled, I got to get back to drawing again.
This EF had around 2600 visitors I think so like 600 more than last year, it's big and it's growing.
