The title of this journal is the song that came to my mind once I saw the map of artist's alley at Fanime. Here is the map of Artist's Alley for Fanime 2013
[link].
Look for Luis Avalos in the 3rd from the last row. Your going to have to scroll down to near the bottom of the page. That is where BlueBaby Art will be. The first thing that came to my mind was "Holy Shit!!That's a lot of artists!".I count over 300 hundred tables And Fanime charges $85 for a table. As of now I'm like I would be happy if Luis and I made $85 a day at this con. I know that's waaay lower than my initial goal of $500.Its just I'm trying to keep things in perspective.Because we will be competing with a lot of other people. Here is a list of things that Luis and I are doing to increase sales.
* We have invested in mailing tubes to store our prints for whoever buys our prints. We will also be using this tubes to sale grab bags of our prints. Each tube will hold 5 8 1/2 x 11 prints and will sale for $15. That's 3 bucks per print. The regular price for a single 81/2 x 11 print is $7.
*Each of our grab bag mailing tubes will also have a note for a prize. Here is my ideas for prizes.
3 free mini prints
A free 8 1/2 x 11 print
A free 11 1/2 x 17 print
A free $5 sketch
Free original line art that was used to make prints.
Some prizes will be rarer than others lol. This will pretty much be our selling point for Fanime. My goal would be to sale out all of the mailing tubes. That would be an easy $350.Anything we sale after that will just be icing on the cake.
We are also printing just enough prints to the point we might sale out of the best ones. So if any of you guys would like one send me note. I'll give my watchers a discount ^_^
UPDATES::
*I know Sicksean and few others are waiting on their 5 dollar sketches. I will try to get those done before I leave for Fanime.
*I only have one more line art project I'm going to finish before Fanime and that is will be our table disclaimer. At a few cons we attended the past year we had to deal with quite a few rude and obnoxious people that took pride in trolling our artwork. So I'm just drawing Nezumi and Tiffy letting people know that if they find tits and ass offensive then they need to shut up and go somewhere else. If you don't like it, don't buy it .I don't want your opinion on how big I draw breasts or how anatomically flawed my figure work is.
* I emailed the Bayonetta line art to AJ. It will probably be done by next week before Fanime.
Well that's about it.I probably put up one last Journal before I head out to Fanime.
