Wow, Haven't Done THIS in a While...

Okay, so I've seriously been neglecting this portion of my DA. ...well, actually, I've been neglecting DA in general, but especially here. And I have my reasons. (...holy shit, the last thing was in AUGUST?!)

Aaaanyways, paragraph recap of my life: September was...September. Nothing memorable happened to my knowledge. October 1st was my birthday, but the rest of the month was eaten once I tried out for HighSchool Musical, and thus lost six weeks of my life to it. It was hell, moving on. November was part Highschool Musical, part recovery, part half-assing NaNo (I have the round-a-bouts of 21 pages, ha), and nothing that interesting happened. 'Cept now, where I'm spending Thanksgiving with mah Birth-Mommeh, Laural. That's made of win.

AND THEN SOMETHING HAPPENED.

Okay, see, there's a Anime-con, called Naka-Kon, that's in Kansas-City this year and was last year and rocks. And--and--I GOT A TABLE AT IT. TO SELL MY STUFF. LKSDAFL ITS AWESOME.

And yeah, I know, like everyone else has a table--BUT THIS IS MY FIRST ONE SO IT'S SO COOL.

But...here's my delima--I know what /I/ wanna sell, but I don't know what people'll buy. First time and all. I'm going cold turkey or...something.

SO. Friends, Romans, Country-men, lend me your opinions. If, theoretically, I could sell anything in my gallery--finish any sketch, color any lineart--as far back as stuff is still pretty--WHAT WOULD YOU BUY?! PLEASE TELL MEEEEE.

Mind you, I am making some new art that's more mainstream and stoofs. Like...I have a Chobits pic sketch...and stuff...to sell...So there's gonna be more at my table than what's gonna be up here. And I probably wont be uploading much past sketches in the future cuz I'm gonna be working my tail off getting ready.

...BUT YEAH. CAST YOUR VOTES. WHAT SHOULD BLU SELL?!

EDIT: STUFF I AM ALREADY PLANNING TO SELL~~

Fanart
-"Air Guitar" (Interstella 5555)
-"Bleach Blackmail" (Bleach)
-"Fancy Meeting You Here" (Redone: Teen Titans)
-"How About Your Father" (Jak)
-"What You See" (Jak)
-"Rugrats" (Jak)
-"Rebirth" (Kingdom Hearts kinda sorta)
-"Bedtime" (Jak/RaHerz)
-"Can I Help You" (tobecolored: Tsubasa)
-"Stupid Mage" (tobefixeded: Tsubasa)
-"Brown" (Trigun)
-"The Goddesses" (Zelda)
-"Real Men Wear" (Detective Conan)
-"From the Top Cast" (Jak)
-"Tilt Your Head..." (Jak)

Original (Exiles)
-"New Cast"
-"Pirate Actr'd"
-"Boogie Wonderland" (Redone)
-"This Doesn't Happen"
-"A Walk Together"

These are what I intend to sell. If you would like me to add anything from my gallery to this list, please leave a comment with the picture title. It can be a sketch or just a lineart--something YOU would buy if given the chance and provided the moneys. If you think something should go? Also comment. I'm only going to be adding a few more pictures to the list--I'm pressed for time so I can't add much. Thank you, again ^^

I'd hate to say it, but fanart would probably be the best kind of art to post. I love OCs and your OCs are just darling, but most people still won't buy original artwork even if it's extremely well done, unless there's a clear underlying emotion to it they can relate to. With the con sounding like it's so close, I dunno if you have the time to work that hard on several pieces, depending on how much you wanna sell. :O

Maybe will you're doing a bunch of normal sized drawings, you could also slowly work on a big, omguber, painting of one of your stories? Even if no ones buy it, it'd probably attract attention and you'd be able to tell people about your story.

People LOVE that KingdomHearts stuff. Umm, Naruto, Bleach..errrm Death Note, Gravitation, Ouran Highschool Host Club, (maybe Final Fantasy *7,8,10, 12, etc.*) I can't think of some other mainstream stuff lol.

Are ya gunna make buttons, prints, cups XD, umm what else does Hobby Lobby sell?...hmmmm, lmao I dunno but...

THAT IS AWESOME YOU GOT A TABLE!!! OMG I WISH I COULD GO HOPEFULLY THEY DON'T HAVE MY GERMAN COMPETITION ON THE SAME WEEKEND THIS YEAR!!!...AGAIN! >_<
:iconshadow-otm:
Put out at least one piece of fanart at your table for sale to rope people into to look at everything at your table. It seems to be a tactic a lot of people use these days... which is sad because some of the coolest artists I've chatted with at cons don't have fanart out on their table... but there are a lot of congoers that seem unwilling to look at a table if there isn't at least one fanart piece to look at on it.

Snazzy buttons with interesting sayings work sometimes too.
:iconvarethane:
I'm curious about something, actually, that something being the legalities behind the non-Japanese fanart... I would totally buy Jak fanart if I were going to that con, but I know that American companies tend to... well, to care more about these sorts of things.

.....*really would totally buy prints of some of your Jak fanart if I were there* Boo on being far far away D:
:iconkaorithezxsfangirl:
Now, I wish I was going. I'd buy that Pirate Act'rd before people could LOOK at it. Damn...

^^ Thanks for likin' my OCs, first off. And yeah, fanart, like, sells like whoa. I'm gonna have to pull some more mainstream bullshit out of my ass by Con time or I dunno whut. Hopefully, though, people just stop at the "OMG PRETTY!!!!" and buy it from there XD

:iconluna-kitsune-blu:
Okay! I actually plan on selling mostly fanart, though it's not gonna be OMG mainstream. And the chance of me whipping OMG mainstream pics out of my ass in the next two months isn't likely.

...and I LOVE buttons, so that could be a very possible possibility. So don't have a machine, but that's why God gave us Hobby Lobbies, yessh? Thanks for your advice!
