Sukesha-Ray's avatar
Hey Guys, the title is basically self explanatory.

I have a few questions before I tackle this con, and I was really hoping I could get some help here!

There are over 25,000 people who attend this.

1. How many different drawings should I sell? 5? 10? 15?

2. How many of each drawing would you produce?

3. Would you rather buy teen titan fan art or pokemon fan art? Thanks!!

Most likely Pokemon... But I wouldn't really know... I've only been to one con in my life... and Loved it! Your work, Amazing!

oh my gosh thank you!

You're Welcome!

Also, is this your first con? If so, why not try to cover both of them. You know, have 40% T.T. and 60% Pokemon. (Since more people, I believe, would be Pokemon lovers then Teen Titan lovers. But there are Teen Titan fans out there, including me! Don't have a fav though...) By doing this, you show people that you don't just like one thing.

If you choose 5, then have 2 T.T. and 3 Pokemon.
If 10, 4 T.T. and 6 Pokemon.
If 15, 6 T.T. and 9 Pokemon.
(Yes, I'm good with math)

As for quantity, try choosing a max number and go from there.

For example: 30 (For an example)

5 different drawings X 6 of each one (5X6)
10 different drawings X 3 of each one (10X3)
15 different drawings X 2 of each one (15X2)

I suggest 5X6 or 10X3 if your max was 30. But if your max was higher, I'd go with 10X?.

But in the end, it's your choice! I hope I didn't confuse you...

I've attended Acen for like 5 years now and i love spending most of my time in artist alley looking for new things and harassing vendors for commissions

1. Have a large verity. Lots of Acen artists have LOTS of drawings. There are a few booths with like a selection of 50+ images from different animes/mangas.

2. Produce A LOT. Pokemon is popular (lots of cosplay)

3. Go with what you feel like selling. Since pokemon is popular, maybe bring more pokemon then teen titans.

4. Bring whatever you feel like, seriously. If you make anymore interesting fanart, maybe bring enough to sell or such... *le shrug

Please update with your booth area when you know it! I wanna come visit you!
Sukesha-Ray's avatar
