I don’t usually make these post-con reports but I just wanted to say THANK YOU to everyone who made my first visit to @sakura-con an amazing one!!!
I had my initial concerns going in since this was my first time tabling alone and at an unfamiliar location, but after the weekend concluded, Sakura-Con 2017 secured itself as one of my favourite cons thus far! The amazing artist and guest interactions was at an all time high, and the absolutely stellar AA staff went above and beyond to support us. Not to mention the venue was probably the nicest I’ve experienced (the chairs weren’t made of shattered plastic and had mother. fucking. armrests!!!)
As you can see^ I also brought home quite the haul thanks to some amazing artists. I’ll tag their tumblrs if anyone sees anything they’d like to own as well!
The amazing Haikyuu!! cast art is from @diamagnet
The Lucina print + small Lucina, Robin and Chrom charms are from @finnichang
The Fight Club Mako (<3) and Ryuko charms are from @whispwill
The larger Lucina + Ephraim charms are from @littlereddo
Special shout-out goes to @tenfiends for having impeccable taste in gaming and carrying probably the only Golden Sun print I’ve ever seen at a con?? The masked Lucina and SotC prints are also his! I don’t frame all my prints anymore but that Isaac is definitely getting one of his own.
As always, I’m also honoured to the all artists who wanted to art trade with me!
Thanks again Sakura-Con. Here’s to hoping I get to return in 2018! It’s back to real life for now. /Conrad
