so I realised I hadn’t made a post about my autographs at jibcon so...
the top one is the poster I designed for all the cast to sign, and they were all really nice about it with lots of ‘this is really cool’ comments (jason even wrote it on the poster lol) :)))
I also had extra autographs that I used to get some of my art signed, and I was so nervous tbh but again, they were all really kind and I just wanted to write their comments down before I forget them all...
rob: did you draw this? me: yes actually, do you like it? rob: yes, this is so awesome, but I want it! me: well I actually made an extra copy if you... rob: yes please! *grabby hands* me: *hands it over then blushes and runs away* (rob signed the poster the day after, and freaked me out by remembering my name o_O)

tahmoh: this is very cool... you drew it? me: yes, and I made an extra copy for you - happy birthday! (it was tahmoh’s birthday that day, and I made a birthday card with the art on the front) tahmoh: thank you so much, this is great!

jared: hey, where did you get this? me: I drew it, actually jared: no way, really? me: um... yes? jared: awesome, that’s really cool! (he also signed the poster at the same time, and was really pleased there was a space right above baby - ‘I signed on my side!’)

tim: you drew this? me: yes :) tim: oh wow, this is wonderful me: I’m glad you like it
~~~
misha: did you make this? me: yes, I drew it misha: excellent work! awesome job! *high five* me: thank you, misha, and thank you for you are not alone misha: thank y... wait, thank me for what? me: for ‘you are not alone’... it means a lot to a lot of people misha: oh *smiles sweetly* well thank you, and you’re very welcome me: *blushes and runs away again*

jensen: *goes to start signing then stops and takes a detailed look* jensen: niiiiiiiiiiiice me: thank you, and I wanted to say thank you for ‘you are not alone’ jensen: *looks right at me and smiles* you’re welcome, sweetheart me: *internal flailing followed by more blushing and running away*

lmao so much blushing and running away, but honestly? I’m actually really proud of myself for asking them to sign my art... I was SO anxious about it, and on the verge of chickening out SO many times, and last year I struggled to make myself say what I wanted, or even say anything at all, when I got my autographs so this was kind of a big thing for me. but they were all so sweet and generous with their comments and it really means a lot to me that this cast takes such trouble to reassure fans/put them at their ease and are so kind <333
