One month you’re working down to the wire preparing for Kupo-con, and the next thing you know its all over! A huge thank you to all who stopped by my table! I had such a fantastic time just chilling and getting to meet a lot of XV fans, particularly the Ignis ones.
Around lunch time I had to step away from my table for a bit to retrieve my gift for Adam (pictured above) since it was still drying in my apartment. ;_; The night prior, stupid me thought that the resin coating would be thick enough not to leak through to the back of the frame and boy was I mistaken. What resulted the morning of, was my panicky self running back and forth at 4am alternating between wiping down leaky resin and pointing a hair dryer at this thing praying it would dry faster before leaving the rest to chance.
Unfortunately, even when I presented it to Adam, it hadn’t fully cured yet, but he was such a good sport about it, and gave me his word that he would let it dry properly. XD
Lesson learned for next time... **nervous laughter**
Among meeting friends in the fandom, I was also able to finally purchase and trade for these beautiful pieces of merch from some of my favorite artists! Ah the talent in this fandom is so good and it just keeps on giving! I really hope to attend more Kupo-cons in the future, not just for the tabling experience, but to hang out with fans more...maybe even cosplay if I’m feeling bold. XD
During the event I managed to sell out of prints entirely, but I still have plenty of charms to go around! From the time being I’ve thrown them into my etsy shop if any of you are interested. Indefinitely, for every 2 charms you purchase I’ll throw in a free final fantasy watercolor mascot sticker! You have the choice of a cactuar, moogle, tonberry, chocobo, or carbuncle sticker. Make sure you list the one you want in the comment box!
While making these charms, I’ve also started to really keep track of ideas for future Ignis merch that I’m hoping to work on now that Kupo is over, so feel free to follow the shop for updates...though I’ll likely post about it here first! =D
Last of all, I’m hoping to just make new art for the blog in general...between my previous con and Kupo, I feel like I have been neglecting this blog and you all. I know I sound like a broken record at this point, but as always, thank you, thank you, thank you all, for following, the comments, the reblogs and the likes. I really want to continue painting Ignis and the bros for as long as I can! T_T
