Anime North

[luco]

So..it looks like I sent in my table application for Anime North a few seconds too early ^^; and thus, won't be getting a table in Artist Alley ((unless they haven't done the second lottery and are way too swamped with emails to tell people, which I can completely understand.))

My only hope now, is the mascot contest. I entered it, but I'm nervous about my chances there since my drawing mood was not what I would have liked. If you're curious as to what I drew




If I don't get a table it'll mean a very rocky start to the summer money-wise AND you won't see me at Otakon. I did not get a table there and so I can't justify buying plane tickets and travelling for a weekend even though I REALLY wanna see everyone again ;; ((and actually hang out))

So I'm a little bummed.

But I am going to look on the bright side! There is always a chance a table may become available on the Saturday morning and if I hear nothing by the end of the week, I'll pay the little extra and get a ticket to the Moonlight Ball and just let myself enjoy the chance to dress up fancy, put a mask on my face and dream for an evening.

And today....I may attempt some FF XIII art ^^; Since I really love Sazh and his kid, Snow/Serah and Lightning/Odin >>; ((yes, feel free to think me odd))

Also, whenever I get a model of the Shivacycle to use as reference, you will be seeing a LOT of art with it! I mean seriously, two beautiful ladies that transform into a gorgeous motorcycle? What is not to love!!

Snow is a very lucky man....

Here, found the toy model Still haven't found a good Youtube video, but any Transformer fans might want to go hunting. It's very pretty to watch but Shiva and Odin. The rest aren't too bad...but their designs are a little too busy to really enjoy...

You guys also gave me some interesting ideas for the picture I posted yesterday and so I think I know what direction I wanna take it! Thanks!

Only by a few seconds? Geeze, are you supposed to time these things with a nuclear clock or something?!? Madness, makes me glad I don't try to get into the AA, but I think your mascot has a pretty good shot in the competition. She's cute and colorful, what more does an anime convention need?

I approve of Sazh art. *thumbs up* Makes me wish I could play the game, man. (OMG HE KEEPS A BEBE CHOCOBO IN HIS HAIR EEEEEEEE)

And I'm glad you know where you're going with the fishy pic!

Aww, the mascot's really cute. :3

...WUT. Does this mean you coming to Otakon is dependent on you getting a table at Anime North. No. Dammit. No. -whimpers-

Ok, I'm gonna try and look on the bright side too. >__<

I'm glad you're enjoying FF XIII. =) But um, -plea for UriJirou fluff-. Also, are you going to mail my order...? I know you were planning on bringing it to Katsucon (;__;), and maybe to Otakon, but if you're not coming to the latter...

Also, I may think about going up to Canada for a bit.

Great job on the mascot! And I'd really like to see you do Fang from FFXIII, she's my favorite of the group. :)

I hope you win since it'd make your life so much easier, that and she's really cute ^_^

NUUUU OTAKON IS A MUSTTTT I want to see your faceeeee ;_;

Oh no! They're that strict? I am so very sorry, love; but I will keep my fingers crossed for the second cut! I wish I could afford to bring you down myself.

And your mascot drawing is wonderful. I love the fact that there is a Canadian map in her bag and her shirt has maple leaves!!!

They'd be stupid not to give you a table.

Urgh. I had that happen with Katsucon. (I've tried to get tables at four difference conventions and haven't been to one yet!)

Still, I hope this all works out for you, we'll really miss you at Otakon if you can't come - though it will also be completely understandable if you can't.
I say good luck to you!

Hmm that really sucks about AN. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you about getting a table still though *A*)b

I'm glad you're still going anyway though. And I guess if you don't get a table I can drag you around all weekend? :D? Which I guess is not really an upside for you but it is for me :D

That Shivacycle looks pretty damned cool to me. I don't know if I'll ever get around to playing XIII though. It kind of feels like they just remade VII and tweaked it a bit. And the design doesn't do anything for me. But I guess the only FF game I fell in love with was XII SO WHO CARES ANYWAY RIGHT??!

All hail Sazh and the FROCOBO!! Eeeeeeee X3.

Also I really love Vanille and Fang. Hurray for Aussie like accents! :3

Also goddamn I want the Shivacycle... *whimpers*
