Hey all!

TFcon is over and it was the best year yet! Thanks to everyone who came by the table, and especially everyone who bought prints and sketches!

Some highlights:

- My GF Amy helped out selling prints on day 1 so, I had a lot more time to sketch. I did 27 total this year, and also sold a bunch of pre-made sketches. Strangely I didn’t get any requests for Megatron or Prime besides a Super-Optimus and a Nemesis Prime. Though I did do two Gnaws (don’t think I ever drew him before!), some Devastators, Bruticus, Sixshot, Robotech, The Fallen, Dinobot, Unicron and many others. Most popular was Bumblebee!

-Colin who runs the show brought G1 Bumblebee voice actor Dan Gilvezan by the booth, very nice guy!

-At least 4 different little kids who came by started laughing out loud at my Movie Megs strip. No, not because of the design joke, or even at the Stunticon with a bat… for some reason kids just think Megatron on a cell phone is hilarious. Kids are awesome.

-Spoke a bunch with Cygnie from Fansproject(makes of the City Commander kit & such). Very cool guy who let me know there are apparently many Lil Formers fans in Hong Kong!

-I sold out of the Best Primes/Best Megatrons strips almost instantly both days. Guess I should be more prepared for Botcon! Also popular was the Powered Convoy strip, and of course the 11×17 Lil Formers G1 print.

-I guess this is a low-light but, one of the fans who bought a sketch from be lost it int he dealer room at the end of day 2. He hadn’t found it when i was packing up so no idea if he did find it. If anyone who was there found a sketch of Nemesis Prime & Arcee holding hands with a big heart, let me know and I will try to help get it to it’s rightful owner!

Anyways, looking forward to next year and also to Botcon!
