This story has a picture behind it! Unless you're hearing this for the first time, in which case, this picture has a story behind it!
So, I went to Anthrocon this year and spent a good portion of the weekend hanging out at
immelmann's table, which turned quickly into working because I wanted something to do. I'm good at getting people to do what I want, so I was being the salesman, attracting customers and generating business. In particular, whenever someone came up to the table, I told them that I would dance for them if they bought something. Surprisingly, this worked rather well.
It got to the point that there was a small (tiny) crowd of 3-4 people. One guy is commissioning Immy, but doesn't know what he wants sketched. I'm posed in a ready stance, as I didn't start dancing until money/product changed hands. The guy looks at me, looks at Immy, looks at the crowd, looks back at Immy, and says...
"I want a picture of my character throwing money at him."
And he points at me.
I'm amazed and pleased that someone else would pay money to have me drawn. :3
This picture is the result! Sorry it's a little blurry, but it wasn't scanned, but taken with a camera at AC. Hey, guy who commissioned this, if you've got a better version scanned in... or you find me at all ever... drop me a line!
