So yesterday was my hometowns first 'anime' ish convention which she called more of a komickon due to the just general diversity it had.  We had gaming system tournaments, which seemed the most successful, as well as some car tournaments, mainly Magic.  We had guest speakers and majority of my friends, myself included at least gave some sort of talk on something.  As we were, though mainly Everfire, was the one that started this whole thing.  There was even an artiest alley, which included, and few others that are also here on deviant art (I too lazy to worry about links) :D

The turn out wasn't exactly what we were all hoping for I think, but still people game, people watched and some in fact did buy stuff.  I for the first time sold my art, something both amazing and nerve-racking.  These were only prints and not originals, it was still awesome and sort of scary.  However, the price to print them all was gut wrenching really and I had hope to sell more, but as the turn out wasn't as great, I have many prints left over and a lot of ground to over.

So I have more prints to sell (hopefully) :shrug:  

I even thought about selling them here on deivantart, but seeing the amount of profit I would get for some of the prints...wasn't exactly helpful.  So now I'm still left with prints to sell, which eventually will either be given as gifts as they are on nice glossy photo paper, or gradually sold here and there.  The first experience of selling my work was awesome, and I'm grateful to those that bought some. :happybounce:  But there always other ways to get them out there.  Not to mention there's rumors of us doing a Halloween Kon in October, which would be kewl :eager:

So I bid you all good day, and thank you fore reading my ranty ish whining journal.

It'll get easier the more we do it and promote it, me thinks. ^^ Planning is already in the works, we may have a murder party. Oooo~
