WOW was this convention a crazy one! Turns out that Friday was a WASH, but Saturday and Sunday were so busy I couldn't stop! I was blessed by many things at this event though, met some new deviants, had some good people help me out, and had some great experiences selling prints and doing sketches for fans! Kim, you helped make Saturday go as great as it should have, don't know if it would have if not for you, and Mai, you did your thing too! Shoutouts to Ralphie, Gabe, Ma'at and Darrell too. Thanks for the laughs and all!
I did a few 5 dollar sketches, real quick headshots and stuff that I wish I had pictures of, but I did a good load of commissions, from regular pencil drawings to watercolor paintings, and was so busy throughout that I am still doing some at home! I've always heard about that happening to artists, and it finally happened to me! lol
I was really lucky to be in the very front of Artists Alley and I was in the second row, and I was seated in a three table section with

Adam Hughes! I think that helped a lot, which kinda scared me when I first got there. When I walked around on Friday and told people where i was at, they all said it was either sink or swim being around that much talent, but thankfully i was able to do well=] And speaking of nervous, the Harley I did was in a sketchbook, right after a beautiful Magdelena piece by none other than

I definitely didn't live up to his stuff, i was so damn nervous the whole time!
So being at the end of the row (damn that's a great place to get traffic and see the convention while still seated!) I got some great pictures, so I thought I'd share those too=] I have those posted in my gallery.
Maybe one day I can meet ya at a con=] I ended up meeting

who was sitting right across from me, with

both who are cool cats! Every time i looked up they were busy drawing, it was so cool to see! And I got to watch Adam finish a black cat sketch where she's got a bag of spray cans, and the wall behind her, in graffiti says Catwoman has herpes, the bad kind! lol
Ended up meeting Mike McKone, who is a cool cat man.... didn't know he was British too=] Ended up meeting

and seeing Jaime Fay, aka

and he ended up helping me when I needed a pencil on Sunday ( I was so tired i brought everything i needed to.... but a damn pencil), which was really cool.

was there too, big shouts to him too!
All in all a pretty good convention, hopefully the next one I am at is even better! If you want the Big Apple Con to thrive, PLEASE write to Wizard and tell them to stop acting crazy and don't schedule next years event in the same month as NYCC, they will just loose......
Thank about it.
Since it looks like no one else is.
