Anime North 2012 RecapAnime North 2012 Recap
Alright so it's been like a week, here's my update on AN!! To be honest, it was not that great this year. Lots of problems with the con itself, plus I had some personal issues going on SIGH~ and, amongst the everything, I ended up not really getting any pictures........ OTL
So...... LOL;;;;;;; But I did manage to find a few taken by other people! (Put all the pics at the bottom of this entry) And I have plenty of shout outs.
Friday
This is what was the first downfall of the con. While I was at my table Friday, a friend of mine who was on staff came by and told me that there were "10 times" the amount of people outside waiting in line, that there were inside! I heard some people even had a three hour wait in line. Brutal. I was very lucky to have met a friend that was in line, so I was able to jump ahead, or I probably wouldn't have made it in on time on Friday. I really think dealers as well as artist alley folk should have prior

Moi Lolita Art book LAST BOOK AuctionMoi Lolita Last Copy
I don't know if anyone is going to care about this... BUT!! ;;; This is an art book I made in 2010ish, I only made so many copies, and I realized I have one left. I will never be printing this book ever again, so this is the last copy that's ever going to be available. So I'm going to ... put it up for auction? *U*;;;;
I remember last time I put up my art for auction, only one person bid. And that kinda sucked. So I hope this turns out differently!! ;;;
It has 38 pages, and it's in full colour. It's based on my OC, Arrow. It includes a profile, some pictures I never posted on DA, a mini comic, some sketches, and contest winners. It has a signature from 2010 on the back of the cover, but I can put a new signature if you want, lol~
I guess I'll start the bidding at ~~$25.00~~. Shipping is FREE worldwide.
Bids:
~~$27.00 ~ =Viverra-Artifex~~
~~$40.00 ~ *inabaka~~
~~$45.00~~

Anime North + forum!!Sorry for not writing here much! I have a personal blog and a tumblr which I use for rants and scraps, and for some reason I figure this journal thing doesn't have much of a blog vibe to it, so I tend to just use it as announcement space.
I will be going to Anime North in Toronto on the last weekend of May! I couldn't go as an artist last year but I will be in the Comic Market this year, with prints and my manga/art books (: I live in Toronto so I will have plenty of books with me; If you wanted a copy but didn't want to pay for shipping, or just scared of the credibility of online shopping and the post office, this would be a great opportunity to get one! There are also many new high quality prints I've made last year as well as this year

My table is at F10. It's the farthest aisle from registration (which is all the way at the top) but at least I get a nice corner to

Toracon 2012 Re-capTora-con 2012
Hellloooo~~ I'm still at :iconmagicalsakura:'s right now, but we had a lot of fun this weekend!! Thank you to every one who stopped by!!
It was only a two day con so not really super eventful. I'm not sure where to start since... not much even happened.... xD
I'm so scared of the US though. I always have difficulties traveling through the border because of what happened before (if you don't know, then you do not need to). The US just scares me a lot! Apparently you can buy guns at Wal-mart? Re...really? ;;;;;; (I saw them there.)
I like Canada a lot better. ;;;
The AA in Tora-con was crowded as FUQ. They always seem to mess it up some how. Last year it was in three seperate rooms completely, this year there was no walking space at all, and the dealers room was really spacious. What the hell. Oh well, they're still only a 2,000 people con I guess.
I didn't buy too much. I need all of my money for printing at AN/AX, and food, rent, etc... crai.
I DID get on

Florida Trip Pics! [Image heavy]Florida Pics!
So as you guys might know I was in Florida for a little while, 11 days to be exact I think! \o/ My parents just retired, so they're going to start going there every year. Maybe next year if there's a con during that time, maybe I can squeeze that in too, who knows.
Speaking of cons, I *WILL* be at Anime Expo this year in LA!! So exciting!! I've never been ;v; I'm tabling with =MagicalSakura. I look forward to seeing everyone!!
More about Florida~~ I took a TON of pics but honestly I just have too many to upload lol. So I'm just uploading a portion(below). Tbh for the most part we just chilled, it wasn't a 24/7 party. First week was mostly enjoying the weather and getting used to the place we were staying in. My parents lived about a 10 minute drive from the beach with oyster shacks and tons of places to eat and drink (one night we practically went beach bar hopping).
I have been to Punta Cana before, so I guess when I went to Florida I was expecting s

Birthday Gifts 2012Birthday 2012
So it was my birthday on the 24th, and I got some AMAZING gifts from you guys.. aaah thank you so much for your heartfelt messages, they mean a lot to me! I'm so happy that I can give everyone strength to continue working on their art.
Last year I remember I tried to thank everyone individually for the birthday wishes, but I only got through 1/3rd! ;; So I didn't even try this year since there were twice as many messages..;; I wish I could've. But thank you everyone so so much

If I forgot anyone, PLEASE let me know~!

Lolita/Cosplay SaleLoli/cosu Sales
My Lolita/cosplay sales are here \^^/ I'm surprised that people were looking forward to them. Like before I am willing to bargain or trade. The only sales I have left to do are my anime goods sales, which I have -A LOT- of so they probably wont be up for awhile (they include posters, shitajiki, pillow cases, magazines, artbooks, etc).
Thanks everyone for their support yesterday in my figure sales, I hope this one is popular too!
HOW TO PAY?: I take Paypal primarily, but if you don't have Paypal I'm also willing to accept cash/money order/check by mail. First come first serve, also, sorry!
Explaining "on hold": If you want me to hold something for you I can for a couple of days until you can pay. If first person cancels or can't pay in time then second in line gets the item.
Figure sales are HERE~~> http://oceanchan.deviantart.com/journal/45841307/
vvv And even if you're not interested in loli you'll get to laugh at me in dumb poses modeling the outfits LOL. v

Yay, I got my table spot~ (it's kinda crappy.. one year I want to get on one of the outer sides. oh well, someday!) I'll be next to

^v^ I will have all of my pony prints this year, all seperate and the group version, + Spike and Derpy, as well as my Touhou prints. And many more (.....hopefully /RUSH!!!;;; ). Hope to see lots of you this year! I'm very excited!! ;u;

EDIT 22/05/2012: Only 4 days left!!! *///m///* I don't think I'm going to make anymore new prints (though, everything that was there last year will still be available, this is all my new stuff only). The only thing that I haven't posted are the cheebs, the Mami pic, the FSxRD pic, and the Bubbleline pic. I think. ALL of these items will be available in my shop by the end of the month.
I will also be doing on-spot bust commissions, however please do bring a visual reference. Can't wait to see you all!! ;7;

More info coming soon.

Ommggggggg. Nooo! I didnt get to go this year, but my friend did. Omg. I havnt been on DA in awhile, and I came on to see if you posted any pictures or anything from AN and see this. This is so disappointing. If only I would've come on a few days ago, I could've asked my friend to get me something from your standdd. Dx
You better be there next year so that I can meet you! :c
