so yesterday after quilt club i was up at Wild West to draw for the In-Store Convention. the turnout was less than amazing, leading me to think it was poorly promoted, but even so, i made about 30 bucks in tips. i'll definitely be there for FCBD, which is in another two months. i know from prior experience FCBD has more foot traffic and a high demand for art. last year i was still doing marker sketches and i made about a hundred dollars in tips, so i'm interested in seeing how watercolor sketches compare.
Kyu and i both figure money i make on these store sketch days can go toward buying doll hair for the MH/EAH customs and reroots i want to do for fun and profit. at this point i have several dolls and the materials (clear acetone for wipes, paint and brushes to redo) to do new faceups. i lack a sealant that's good on both vinyl and plastic, and hair that's not acrylic yarn. really though, once i have a few that sell, they'll fund buying more dolls and continued supplies and it'll be a self-sustaining hobby with a small profit margin.
today though is game day. since i know that the store is actually running a big tournament for another game (X-Wing) i'm not taking my DM stuff, just my Pokedex Challenge to get more done with it. last time i worked on it (two weeks ago?) i got 27 done, so i'm still making my way through it at a respectable pace, but the announcement of Gen 7 this winter with Sun and Moon means there'll be more to do soon, and i wonder when i'll actually manage to finish. someday, i say and sigh wistfully.
