TFF 19 After Con Report
6 years ago
What a whirlwind! That was our best con ever by a mile. Our gross was more than a paycheck for me, which is really a help as I have no idea how I am supposed to handle a car payment and running the renaissance festival clan with my budget lately xD;;;
I've updated my queue into a more orderly fashion and divided it up into simpler and more involved projects. With only two days a week to work on art, I am frequently forced into alleys where I get behind, which is where I am on my remaining pre-TFF queue. Fortunately it's never too bad... unless you're a friend, in which case, I love you?
I am listing color sketches and badges separately now as they can be finished in one-two sessions, which is a great boost to my ego when I'm feeling like a loser for not finishing something. Consider that warning they may not be finished in order.
The con was a huge thing for Mao/Shiarra and I. We both did quite well. She sold twice as many tails as she's been averaging, which is outstanding because yarn tails are really a luxury product. I think I sold more prints than I've ever sold at a con, as well. I'm looking forward to the two painting commissions I received! That's exciting.
We are finally confirmed for Denfur so that is a weight off our shoulders, as well, so that'll be our next con officially, which gives me plenty of time to finish up my queue as well as a certain terrible comic that I'm embarrassed to post every page of because, well, it's filthy.
No more filthy parties at TFF. Other cons will remain naughty for us but we were just torn in too many directions at this one. TFF is our home con and we are too busy as is to handle managing something like that and still have energy to see a dozen different friends.
