[Life Update] July 2014 by Snackish

Hi everyone! I haven't posted a journal in a while, so I thought I would give you all an update on whats been happening in the life of Snack.


First of all - conventions! Last month I had a table at Supanova Sydney, and I had a blast. My first convention I had a table at was MiDFur in 2012, but Supnanova Sydney in 2013 was the first convention where I really put a lot of effort into making things to sell. Looking back and comparing to how I went this year, I feel like I've really learnt a lot!

However, I've decided to take a break from doing most conventions for a while. What I really want to do is have more of my own IP on my table, rather than just fan art.
Fan art is fun, but its not really something that you can grow upon. And drawing all these other people's IP makes me feel like ... I want to draw my own! And I want to share them with every one!

I am working on a project with some friends that hopefully I will be able to show you guys before the end of the year, and I also have ideas of my own that I want to work on.
When I start having tables at conventions again, I'm going to be having more of that!

(Ah, sorry to the people who want Pokemon/MLP/other fan things. I hope you will take a look at my new stuff anyway! ; w ; )


Also, while I'm not going to be having a table at cons, I'm still going to be attending some! I'm really looking forward to SMASH! next month! * w * I want to make a
costume for it, but we shall see if time and money allows for it. Other cons that I want to attend are Oz Comic Con in Sydney and Supanova in Brisbane. I might be
helping my friends at their tables, such as at Sydneigh in Sydney (I don't know if they got an extra pass though, so thats a 'maybe.')

I'm also thinking about having a table at ConFurgence in Melbourne. That one is mostly taking commissions, and maybe I could make some cute animal themed buttons
and goodies.


I'm also starting to look for a different job. I really like my job at the bowling alley, but they just can't offer me enough shifts for me to comfortably support myself
anymore. I'm really nervous about learning a new system at whatever it might be, but I guess that can't be helped!

It would have been nice if I could live off my art, but that can't be a reality right now. One day!


Commissions are back open for anyone who is interested! I have some new items, so check it out! I've even got sketches on offer for as low as $5, so there is something for everyone's budget :>


Hmm, I think thats it for now! Thanks for reading!

Cheers,
Snackish
