*****THE BELOW STUFF IS OUT OF DATE:
First off, SORRY I haven't updated dA in a while. oops.
***(please scroll way down for stuff about commissions if you wanna skip this first part)
I don't upload sketches to dA so if you happen to be interested in any arts being made by me recently (which isn't much and just messy doodles) then you can see them here at my tumblr: www.mangokappu.tumblr.com/tagg…
(warning: automatic music on my tumblr, hohoho)
About the AX thing,
okaaaay. Kind of spur of the moment, but was talking with and she convinced me to make a journal about this.I kinda want to do AX's artist alley..... I've been told that I'm ready, though I don't feel it, but ahhh, this feeling of wanting to go won't leave me *A* Tables are totally sold out of course, and even the waitlist is too. So I'm looking for anyone who would share with me? Again, I was convinced to ask because normally I wouldn't go out and do this, BUT I'm kinda interested in doing a share and meeting other people at this new con, maybe. I know I don't have too many watchers, or even any who may find this relevant, but ahhh oh well xD
My latest inventory that gives a look on what I sell is here (extremely blurry oops): mangokappu.tumblr.com/post/685…
A look at how much table space I use is here: mangokappu.tumblr.com/post/686…
I can totally try to make a smaller set up to take up less space too! Not sure how I will go about that yet >w>;;
Anyways, the side of me that still feels that I'm not ready to AA there is also contemplating just attending the con as a patron... So if AA-ing doesn't work out this year, I HOPE TO MAKE THAT HAPPEN INSTEAD.. MAYBE.
And to possibly make that happen.... I need to earn some money! Which brings me to:
COMMISSIONS. AND I'M TAKING ONE FREE REQUEST
Oh gosh how I've been mentioning this forever and never getting around to making an example list, price post, etc. SO here's what I'm thinking...I'm taking informal commissions right now.
*What this means is:- No commish samples (edit: will update whenever I finish a sample and will post)
- No guarantee on how long it will take to finish
- More restrictions in what I'm willing to do (no specific poses)
- Simpler colouring/technique
- A more scatterbrained artist, so not much professionalism.
- Fluctuating prices (will probably be cheap at first because of above points)
AHHH so sorry these make my commissions even more unappealing but I'd rather be honest about this now than later.
So more on the above posts:
- I don't have examples for what exactly I'd be selling (my dA gallery might work as one but my style is ever fluctuating so there's no definite thing to use for when you make expectations. my tumblr art tag that I linked to at the start of this journal might be better, tho i don't have much digital stuff from recent).
- Also, the prices I'm going to determine in a minute are not going to be set in stone and will probably be changed often until I figure it out for a formal announcement. What I'm thinking is that I'll do maybe the first batch cheap (if I can even get some commissioners) because of these no guarantees on anything. And then will probably significantly up the prices when I am able to get more comfortable.
- It'll take a while to finish things because I am currently a student who's also dorming and this fact has ALREADY prevented me from other non-school related art things like more AA stuff and getting to be part of a anthology (so disappointed in myself sob sob)
OKAY SO YEAH HERE'S THE STUFF:

FINAL TIDBIT:
Please understand why I say informal commissions. This is me experimenting for something more solid in the future, and that's why I can't make any guarantees and it's priced as it is now. There's no definite example of what they look like, so you're gonna have to be adventurous if you sign up. When I up the prices, it will be because I need to, to help me have some sort of income while I'm in school and because I'd love to attend more conventions.
If you don't like my set-up right now, then that's okay.
Well... hello! Some Con Updates!
Sorry, I haven't really updated on dA ; v ; Again, as I've mentioned, tumblr is where I post more (still not often OTL) but I try to put complete pieces here on dA still. And I even have a twitter too (ahahah i still dunno what to do with it tho cept for complain and squee on it xD)
Anyways! I'm gonna be at more cons this summer maybe, so here's a brief overview!
Confirmed cons I’m artist alley-ing at (visit meee):
OTAFEST (Calgary): May 15-17
ANIME EVOLUTION (Vancouver): July 17-19
ANIME REVOLUTION (Vancouver): August 14-16
Things I’ve signed up for:
ANIME NORTH (Toronto): May 22-24
A-KON (Dallas): June 5-7
Still awaiting
Animethon recap!! And Anime Revolution next weeeek
ANIMETHONWent pretty okay this year! I hear that for some people, business wasn't as good, and it was probably the new location. I mean, it was a nice place with good lighting, but I think that there was less traffic for longer periods of time because it is pretty out of the way from the rest of the con, and if not for registration being above our floor, probably would've been worse xP And also, maybe people didn't know it was there too?
Here's my table: https://38.media.tumblr.com/e17dcb278c16ef97a9c8f2531de1729b/tumblr_na7v69Y4sA1qcnvb2o1_500.jpg
I cosplayed as Ryuuko~~
My Love Stage!! poster did reeeeally well for some reason xD Maybe i
OTAFEST 2014 ARTIST ALLEY// STORENVY?
OTAFESTIT WAS FUN! I went with !Eibbie (https://www.deviantart.com/eibbie), her assistant, and my assistant/brother. We were staying in one of the campus residences that was being put up as a 'hotel' (and i was jealous how much nicer the bedrooms than my dorm's). Wondering if I'd wanna do that place again or find some place cheaper >w>;;
I did well I think, when it came to sales, I just think I need to make more things people like OTL SO YEA now i'm on a quest to figure out what else will sell that I've watched/read or will come to like if I give it a try xP It seems that Otafest's crowd likes... old stuff? Old as in 2006-10ish stuff that has their own English dubs/
tiny UPDATE: Otafest, space in our hotel room!
(obviously making use of free premium lol)
Oops so my last commission post didn't work out, but I'll make another post about it after the semester is over. Or maybe after Otafest is over because I'll be busy until then too :/
Me and my close friend who's also participating in Otafest's artist alley (plus her assistant) have booked a hotel room and are looking for maybe a few artists in the alley still in need of a place to stay during the con to share the cost, and most of the other artists I personally know have places to stay already.
We're only looking for other artists and not regular con-goers because we'd be a bit more trusting of pe
