 I am always complaining about the typical [[https://artistbooths.com/cdn/shop/files/IvoryWhite-FrontTopRight.png?v=1746337116&width=950|anime convention grid cube layouts]] that are covered in a bunch of shit and the artist is only visible through a peephole.  They make me sad.   I am always complaining about the typical [[https://artistbooths.com/cdn/shop/files/IvoryWhite-FrontTopRight.png?v=1746337116&width=950|anime convention grid cube layouts]] that are covered in a bunch of shit and the artist is only visible through a peephole.  They make me sad.

   * I would like to continue painting hand-made signs on reinforced cardboard or other stiff materials.  I cut little holes into them with an exacto knife, then use velcro strips to attach them to the canopy.  I can also attach them to my tablecloth, or my bamboo mat that I've been bringing.   * I would like to continue painting hand-made signs on reinforced cardboard or other stiff materials.  I cut little holes into them with an exacto knife, then use velcro strips to attach them to the canopy.  I can also attach them to my tablecloth, or my bamboo mat that I've been bringing.
   * I would like to continue using thrifted display shelves that are multipurpose, cuz I can use them at home to store our stock too.  Hell we even thrifted our canopy for $50.  It's amazing what you can find at a thrift store even in our backwoods country towns.   * I would like to continue using thrifted display shelves that are multipurpose, cuz I can use them at home to store our stock too.  Hell we even thrifted our canopy for $50.  It's amazing what you can find at a thrift store even in our backwoods country towns.
-  * I would MAYBE eventually like to have one large printed backdrop of my favorite piece or something (I could pin our dakimakura onto that lol [but then i could also get some metal fishnets and chains to pin our stuff as a backdrop too...]). +  * I would MAYBE eventually like to have one large printed backdrop of my favorite piece or something (I could pin our dakimakura onto that lol [but then i could also get some metal fishnets and chains to pin our stuff as a backdrop too...]). Ok two fishnet curtains, wide nets, so we can hang stuff from them
   * I would REALLY love to get on making that "online catalog" as a binder with sheet protectors that I can add to.  So people can see our full stock without us having to bring the whole thing.  I'll even put in a coupon code in there so people can order online if we don't have something in person.   * I would REALLY love to get on making that "online catalog" as a binder with sheet protectors that I can add to.  So people can see our full stock without us having to bring the whole thing.  I'll even put in a coupon code in there so people can order online if we don't have something in person.
   * I would love to have an 8.5x11 print binder, a 4x6 print binder, and a sticker binder full of stock.  We will display the most relevant stock to the theme (i.e more slut and metal stuff for Slutfest, more anime and cartoons for more pop culture stuff) for people to touch and pick up and feel.  And people can browse the binders if they really are interested.   * I would love to have an 8.5x11 print binder, a 4x6 print binder, and a sticker binder full of stock.  We will display the most relevant stock to the theme (i.e more slut and metal stuff for Slutfest, more anime and cartoons for more pop culture stuff) for people to touch and pick up and feel.  And people can browse the binders if they really are interested.

   * $5 tiny drawings, like I did for [[events:2025_gsozinefest]].  Very quick, I can do them with my brush pen better!  Budget-friendly, good for kids.  Can fit in smaller bags instead of big heavy bags.   * $5 tiny drawings, like I did for [[events:2025_gsozinefest]].  Very quick, I can do them with my brush pen better!  Budget-friendly, good for kids.  Can fit in smaller bags instead of big heavy bags.
   * increase Big Paper sizes to $15 for one person, $25 for two people, +$10 each person after that..  That's about the prices I charged at the wharf.   * increase Big Paper sizes to $15 for one person, $25 for two people, +$10 each person after that..  That's about the prices I charged at the wharf.
 +  * OR full body drawings for $15-20?  So i can capture the whole fit. I may need to take a picture for that one, then ask them to sit. 
   * SIGH figure out what kind of coloring I can do?  I don't need to do this.  It's not conductive to my ""brand"" where like half my prints are black and white detailed inks :P   * SIGH figure out what kind of coloring I can do?  I don't need to do this.  It's not conductive to my ""brand"" where like half my prints are black and white detailed inks :P
   * Use a big like.. crayon?  Graphite stick?  Covers large areas easier, can draw faster, cleaner and won't get ink all over my face.  But less permanent than ink, and I think my inking makes me more unique than the standard caricature crayon artist.   * Use a big like.. crayon?  Graphite stick?  Covers large areas easier, can draw faster, cleaner and won't get ink all over my face.  But less permanent than ink, and I think my inking makes me more unique than the standard caricature crayon artist.

 I have lots of ideas as usual, just need help editing them and pinning down a couple things to focus on.  I think the main like financial issue is I am limited by how fast I can draw.  I probably can't draw faster than I already can LOL.  But we can try to push the side booth to look cuter so people will want to browse it more and get a caricature WITH a thing from the booth.  I have lots of ideas as usual, just need help editing them and pinning down a couple things to focus on.  I think the main like financial issue is I am limited by how fast I can draw.  I probably can't draw faster than I already can LOL.  But we can try to push the side booth to look cuter so people will want to browse it more and get a caricature WITH a thing from the booth.
