Title: Prints to sell at a local convention...
Post by: Fishalicious on December 16, 2007, 03:14:11 PM
Alright, I make a lot of new topics... ;__; but I need your suggestions.

My friends Sarah and Stephanie are setting up a table at The Artist's Alley in RealmsCon (http://realmscon.com/"). In most cases, people sell fanart. However, I'm not sure WHAT type of fanart we'd sell.

My list is composed of:
-Loveless
-Nintendo (esp. Zelda and Mario)
-Pyramid Head/Bubblehead Nurse (Silent Hill of course)
-Animals (Kilala, Haku, Kyuubi, etc.)
-Okami

My friends need some help figuring out fanart categories, too. We all have different artistic strengths and weaknesses, as well, so please take those into consideration.

Haley (aka Fisk (http://negativezerro.deviantart.com/gallery/)):
+Animals
+Macabre
+Pencil/Pencil Crayons
-Bodies/proportion
-Perspective
-Geometric shapes

Sarah (aka Sage (http://twilightcage.deviantart.com/gallery/)):
+People
+She's better at perspective than I am x_x
+Inking
-Animals
-Clothing wrinkling

Stephanie (aka Sheeta (http://luniform.deviantart.com/gallery/)):
+Women/Curves
+Kissing
-Noses
-Manly men

Don't be so humble, Dr., I'd pay to plaster you all over my wall....

Honestly, though, if you're looking for money, Sarah could make some erotica. Those go fast.

Except at the South Pole.  I swear those penguins are art Nazis.

I'd suggest something, but I fear that it would be too obvious. ;)

You want a picture of Magmar.

I'd like a picture of a sniper squirrel.  The original sniper squirrel, back in the day when they used bows and arrows.

Actually, that's true, Stephen has a huge fan base. Maybe you could combine that WITH erotica...

ERRRRRRR!!!!! Good try, though. (And that IS a good idea... ;) )

Eh, I'll just say it, I guess. Well, Zelda fan art's definitely a given. I hope you guys aren't limiting the topics; KH fan art and maybe Avatar fan art!  ;)

You could probably try R&C stuff as well! ;D

Avatar is a great choice, actually. And yes, we are going to be doing Zelda art, at least Steph and I are.

Oh, and if you're looking for the art, I'm not displaying it on DevART until after Realmscon08. I'll be submitting them on the Synthesis of Imagery section of the site, so be on a lookout.

Yeah, they should be done soon, with any luck. Of course, I need new coloured pencils soon, my current ones are quite dead.

I'd also like to start using markers for some prints, just because they're so smooth and easy to use... no messy sharpening...
