RisuCon Artist Alley Vendors 2024
Small con with mostly local artists (and hella talent)! There were also a lot of other artists who were in the beginning of their convention journeys like me so that was really dope. I was upset with myself for forgetting to do this for Otakon before I started tearing through all my stickies so I wanted to make sure I knocked this one out. Businesses below the jump! ✨
Next Convention!
As for the rest of 2024, I will be participating in RisuCon in Montgomery County, MD! It is August 17th and 18th and tickets are fairly cheap! Come see me then if you all can!
I did apply to Otakon but we’ll see how that goes. They haven’t sent out confirmations to those who got in with standard tables just yet so I will keep you all updated!
THE COZY CORNER IS COMING TO RISUCON 2025!!! Hope to see you there~
no rest for the wicked lol
Neon Road to Artist Alley, p14
After all my manic making and shouting into the void about whether this elective suffering was even a good idea... I've finally made it through to the other side! My first artist alley was overwhelming and also incredibly gratifying. I go to Otakon year over year but being on this side of things, I missed out on some of my favorite aspects of it. However, the trade off of engaging with a bunch of fellow nerds in the way you get to from the other side of an artist alley table? Priceless. Like, yes, let's talk about our shared hyperfixation. Bestie, if I had time to cosplay, I was cosplanning that character too! Let me touch that prop, dude, did you make it yourself?
Needless to say, my nervous energy prior to the event is what also got me through it because I was running on zero sleep and fumes for the last several weeks but I still got to connect with so many cool people! It was awesome and I'll 100% do it again. Promise not to clog your feeds *so* much with it next time. I'm even splitting a table for another smaller, local con this weekend (and I mostly kept that to myself until now)!
Dropping pictures below and just wanted to thank you all for your support again. It meant a lot when I was spiraling. Promise to get back to my shitposting, meta posts and whatever this is after Risucon! So leave me something to ponder (if you want)!
PEOPLE CAME BACK WEARING MY ART!? Also not once was I early enough to put on makeup for any of my casual cosplays and people were nice to me anyway. 😅
Mirko stickies should arrive on Friday so I'll update the shop after Risucon for anyone interested! I also added some Baku Bottle Openers (which sparks joy for me) and shirts are available on Threadless.
Days left until Otakon: -10 🎉 Days left until Risucon: 3
