I know it's a lot of words, but I just had to get some things off my chest. It's very unlikely the algorithm will show anyone this regardless.
For reference, this really only applies to juried shows. But I apply for as many as 70 shows a year; last year I did 22. And many of those were lottery or fcfs.
Anyway, like I said, this is largely me venting. Take it as you will.

Look, #zhongli is a simple archon with simple tastes. Even #navia follows with blonde hair and burgundy eyeshadow. I'm definitely not implying the @genshinimpact #characterredesign team is lazy.

My complex is greedily raising my rent by almost $100/month, so I'm selling some originals while I try to get more work to pay for the difference (because working 14 hour days, 7 days a week isnt enough). You can get 20% off with the code "thanks"

Finally scanned #baizhu - did this piece at @momocon - I waited three years for this man and he's worth it. Though I do wish they had kept his original looser pants.
Also dammit tumblr use hashtags like every other platform

I was lucky enough to do the #eevee piece for the @pokedogszine #pokedogs #pokedog #pokemon #zine - but I can tell you that all the pieces turned out amazing, plus there is a ton of cool #merch ! #preorders are open until August 16 and support the 15/10foundation which helps dogs with behavioral and/or medical issues get adopted! (I'm not crying you're crying!)
#Preorder at pokedogszine.bigcartel.com

Phew! After having to get an emergency tire replacement (and being unable to switch to the spare because the lug nuts were on too tight) I'm all set up at @animemidwestofficial ! Drop by for my last #artbook or my new #genshinimpactkaveh #kaveh themed #resin #resinjewelry
Also be sure to stop by the amazing @starbeans_bags @glitter.and.moss and @kawaiilo.ren in our magic #genshinimpact corner!

Honestly I'm so happy I found your account, because you're local and your reviews of cons that are literally close to me are so helpful!! Also your art is rendered so beautifully, thanks a bunch! (◍•ᴗ•◍)❤
Okay, obviously I never check tumblr (until now, because I got frustrated with instagram and their ridiculous number of ads) but thank you for the comment! Its nice to know people actually read them!

Hi there! I'm an artist just now looking into getting into the con scene for the first time (I was prepping to in 2019, but the funniest thing happened 🙃 and while it still doesn't quite feel safe, I'm at least doing research now) and I just wanted to say that your con reviews have been incredibly helpful. I was looking into cons local to Ohio (I'm from Dayton, so it would seem we're pretty close). I don't have the means to donate rn, but I just wanted to say thanks. <3
Aaaaw thanks!
I'm way behind in my reviews, as I spend most of my time actually making art, but it's nice to know they help! If you ever see me at a show please say hi!

Hello! I saw that you were at Otakon AA last year. I just got my acceptance email for Otakon 2023, but I've never done AA at a con before and have no idea what kind of stock I should bring for a con of this size. What stock quantities do you recommend? I'm only planning on printing 5-10 designs at most, in varying sizes. I also won't likely be bringing anything fancier than stickers. Thank you so much for your time! I really appreciate it <3
Congratulations on getting in to Otakon!
I often get asked about starting out at conventions, and I recommend to people to start with small, local shows: generally, the cost of tables is significantly less, and it gives you some practice as well as a good idea of what sells. Otakon, however, is the exact opposite of a small, local con.
Even having done conventions for over 20 years I am still occasionally surprised by what might sell - sometimes it's an older series that no one else has, or a group of friends might all want something.
For myself, I have a huge portfolio of work, so dome images I may only bring two or three, but other images I may bring 10 or more. Generally, fanart sells better than original art. Also, smaller, less expensive items sell better than large items (a number of people also no longer buy prints, theyre out of wall space!) Popular series like genshin can be a good bet, BUT if everyone has genshin merchandise then your stuff needs to really stand out.
Also there is some math. What is the price of the table and your other costs versus what is the profit you make from your items? How many total items at each price would you need to sell to make up your cost? Take the price of your table and divide it by the profit, and that's how many items you need to sell, so bring at least that many.
Of course this gets more complicated as prices change depending on if you order in bulk, and when you have items with different profits, and unseen costs like credit card processing fees and bags and business cards or other freebies.
Also, do you have other conventions you'll be attending after otakon? If so, then leftovers can just be used at the next show.
Hope that helped at least a little, and good luck!
