Allright, got some sleep, feeling pretty good now. I think I got
maybe 5 hours of sleep between friday and sunday. But I was full
of energy and having an illegal ammount of fun.
But yeah. Staple. Austin. Good times. The best convention I've ever
done (which doesn't give them justice since I've only done a handful
so far) but really, it was a great con. I went with Matt Houk again,
like with WizardWorld. Always good to hang out with that guy.
I did pretty good, sold a couple of the prints I made, did a good
ammount of sketches. Gave away all of my New Balance ashcan minis.
People really seemed to dig them.
While I didn't get a picture (which of course I wish I did) I got
to meet Josh Lesnick, one of
my favorite webcomic artists. That guy is so chill, man, and I wish
I could have talked to him more, but I didn't get the chance to,
since he was in a different room then me (I actually walk around
alot at the cons I go to, even having a table, heh)
My New Balance mini got some publicity. I was on a podcast that
should be up friday I believe. I'll post the link here once it goes
up so you can hear me say some really dumb things, heh.
Also, Ninja Mike and Tron over at Cyber
Monkey Death Squad both have my mini in their posts about Staple.
You can check them out here
and here.
The afterparty live art show was great too. It was at this real
chill bar called the Red 7, with live music from Terp2it. Stan Sakai
was there drawing some Yojimbo, which made me want to draw some
Yojimbo, so I did, and Stan was watching me do it the whole time!
That's easily the highlight of Staple for me. Stan Sakai liking
my drawing of his character.
Thanks James for the picture! ZOMBIELESS!!!
Now
I'm home, getting back into my normal schedule. I put up the New
Balance pages now that the con is over, and I plan on adding to
it weekly, so check back. The art section's always getting updated
semi-randomly too, so yeah. Enjoy.

Today I heard from the guys at Staple!
in Austin, I officially have a table for their 2009 show! If you
live near the Ausin, TX area, you should check their site for info
on the show and where it's gonna be. This will be my first time
in Austin (technically) so I'll probably make a mini-vacation out
of it.

So Wizard World was pretty fun.
Sold a few comics, talked with a few artists, played some Street
Fighter Alpha. Good times, good times. All-time best thing ever
was that I got to participate in the Heroes
4 Heroes art auction. My peice went for like 70 bucks, I was
pretty surprised.
