After a month long of no sleep and non-stop drawing painting and sketching for APE, it's over! It went by too fast it seems. It feels like a blurr!
But it was a total blast. Even if I was dead tired :P I met a TON of awesome ppl and for the first time my art was fully exposed to the public. So I was a little nervous at first but after I got over it, I had fun. I saw many familiar faces and met a bunch of artists, it's actually crazy how small the industry is, I met people that knew people I've worked with or gone to school with. There are so many talented people its both intimidating and motivating.
I even got interviewed by Geek Speak Radio Show and you can check out the interview here on YouTube! (Don't make fun! I was a lil nervous..)
They interviewed a lot of first timers at APE so be sure to check the rest of their interviews!
Overall it was a rewarding experience and an awesome place to make a ton of new artist friends and connections. Will i be doing it again? HELL YES. I'm considering doing Wondercon 2012 in Anaheim this year as well. So be sure to keep an eye out for that if i get a booth :P
I'll post up more pictures as soon as i get them....... since i didnt take my own :(
UPDATE!!! Pictures taken by my cousin!
