วีดีโอ

Hey! Just saw your video and also saw myself in the background right at the start! I’m the one that talked with PopCon about coming down here in Louisville and said how they really need to do a con here. I feel the problem with Louisville is that while the city says they want a con, it seems that when one actually comes here they don’t tend to show up for it as much as you’d think. Hopefully you’re coming back to PopCon next weekend!

Thanks for this video review! I'm new to making stickers out of my art and I'm trying to find the best fit for me.

Awesome review! How would you describe the difference between the soft matte and frosted matte?

Thank you for this detailed video! I wanted to try stickerbunnies. Are you still using them today, thanks!

my goals also involve working on my mental and physical health so that I have the confidence to keep making art. I’m also really hoping to produce a lot of art because right now my catalog is really small 😅. Loved the vlog btw!

OMG that Solid Snake Maid charm is AMAZING, i love it!!!!!🤩🤩🤩

I love watching your vlogs so if you're planning to do weekly vlogs I'm here for it! Makes me feel like you're keeping me company while I'm drawing hehe! This year I'm actually trying to work on comics too so I'm also looking forward to reading yours whenever that drops! I've already released one chapter of a fan comic I'm working on, but man... what I've found out about making comics so far is that it's an absolute b*tch and a half to do just because you have to be consistently working on it everyday and drawing the same characters over and over again 😆

so happy i found you, your store and art are soooo prettyyy. i'm for sure getting my hands on some stuff!! cheering for you!! 💖💖💖💖💖💖 also your vamps oc keychain is sooo scrumptious and i would die for some oc or fandom tote bags

I really need to work on advertising my art more this year, social media has really been a pain the neck these past few years 😭 best of luck on your goals though!

I went to Louisville for a competition convention back in 2017 through SkillsUSA Nationals! I absolutely loved it there. We stayed at the Hilton, the one that was connected to Cellar Doors.

This video just got suggested to me but i just realised i have so much of your stuff on my wishlists! Love your art so much

Hay were do you get your keychains form?

If you are coming to LCTC24, I promise I will be there to buy something from you! I hate that this area can’t hold cons well! It is no fun to drive out of state for bigger cons! I want to attend this event, but it is close to the same time as HCTC and matsuricon for 2024!

I wish I didn't live so far away from you I would love to shop at your booth in person and you can meet Chocomoose and you can bet I would be buying some stuff ^.^

I was really hoping this one would *decent* especially y'all could use a good local show! But alas the Louisville curse persists

Are you signing up for next year? They just changed the dates to August 23rd-25th and they're at a bigger, better space, in the heart of Louisville according to them. I signed up for both PopCons because one is local to mine so I hope Louisville is better next year now that it's in a bigger and better area.

its so hard to find cons in this area ive noticed! Im a little further east of you, but every con we have ive noticed theyre always super empty if they do keep coming back after one year. A friend of mine and I went to conapalooza (Over towards johnson city area) and it was super empty/dragging and this was pre covid. it makes me so sad, because i want more opportunites in thsi area

I'm also heartbroken that Louisville has such a hard time keeping cons :( I'll cross my fingers for this one though!

I would love (if possible and you feel like sharing) your sales figures for the shows in your vlogs. I've been enjoying you con blogs after I found your channel a few weeks ago and super appreciate you going over points like general staff organization, attendance numbers and things like that -- but it would be super helpful to hear some numbers for your weekends. Even if they were generalized.

I love your water bottle! black with gold pattern. May I ask where you got it? Awesome display overall, I love the table runner idea. The pumpkin maid jumped out to me specifically, I really like that one. Thanks for making this video, it was fun to relive the artist alley from last year and see some stuff I missed :3 I got lanyards from mushabear and love them!

I am feeling very grateful that I found your channel ❤❤❤

love the rebecca <3

0:45 I literally spat out my drink when i saw frye, special interest jump scare

I'm so glad I came across your video because I've been checking to see every day to see if the tables have gone on sale. Your video reminded me to check today and the tables were on sale and I got one! (There weren't many left) I've never done the event before even though it's only about an hour or so away from me. I'm excited.

Omg you posted!! I LOVE watching your videos while i work! I just did my first artist alley over the weekend and have another market tomorrow. I'm so glad I have another of your vids to listen to while I sew 😭😭

I hear your room placement matters if you do decent or not at this show! I'm always on the fence because I'm 3 hours away for this one.

Babe, wake up, Glitchbat made a new video

Hey you all were our neighbors!!! I love your art. Sorry we weren’t so talkative I was so tired the entire time there. And yes, the disorganization was horrid as was the slow trickle of attendees they were letting in (the person checking the badges were studying each badge like it was an ancient tome and not checking for masks.)

I’m going to youmacon this year and it’s going to be my first ever anime con that I’m going! Can I ask what exactly do you do at cons? And is it best to go all 3 days or just Saturday? I’m planning to go with my friend but like I never went there before and I don’t know how things are worked out over there 😭 I heard the con takes place in two buildings? could be wrong but I’m planning to pre-order tickets soon!

I'm thinking of going in november this year since it's decently close to where I live. I heard some rumors that the artist valley and vendors is cancelled (?) though 😭 Are the rumors true and would you recommend going this year? This is also my first con and so I'm excited but also have mixed feelings because of what people have been saying about this con.

Im just now getting into a convention after 3 years of not doing any, i love seeing the little things that go into other artists' prep, even seeing your suitcase lol. I just got star buttons, but i had them made by vograce, im taking notes on that button press setup!

Back in the day youmacon used to be amazing, they made sure people got into their lines got to meet and greet the people they wanted to come up there to meet and it was about you know getting to know other people who have the same and Trust likes and values of anime that you've did and made the people who made a difference or impact in your life as a voice actor or voice actress. Fortune has been tainted with money-grubbing anyway they can if they cap the line and people aren't able to meet in the people they came all way up there to meet they get disappointed and then are told they have to pay extra more money out of their pockets and that money doesn't go to help the voice after you pay for the meet-and-greet with them because they kept the line. Instead that money goes directly to the pockets of those working the youmacon convention and that does a disservice to the voice actors and actresses whose run their time to come out there to meet their fan and as well as a fan who want to meet them because they's a literally half the line so that there's little chance from enough people to get there and meet their voice actor or actress people that inspired them or made a difference in their lives. It's to the point where even voice actors and actresses will actually have to pay workout money at the convention they were invited to, because they want to keep profiting off of the fans and the people coming to the dimension are only there to meet the voice actors and actresses so they'll do anything they can to sabotage that so that they can make money off of you in order for you to actually meet them and meanwhile those voice actors and actresses make no money off of that they don't get any Financial you know anything for doing that side gig of meet and greet after they convention is capped your lines and then the voice actors and actresses actually done going to set up a table or Booth to meet their fans because they never got a chance to meet all their fans and that's because youmacon has made it difficult for that to happen in the last few years. That is why they are losing a lot of people from coming to these conventions and a lot of voice actors and actresses are staying away from youmacon because they know it's not about their fans and meeting their fans anymore it's about profiting anyway youmacon group can do by charging fantaskey fees and making it difficult to meet and greet while they want to force you to see all these other activities they claim are offered their no one's really interested in them no one's interest in the gaming area or some other areas that they want to push up and they know that they can't bring in anything unique or new to their convention because they know that to do so would require money out of their pocket their money-grubbers who only look at profiting off of people trying to come up there to meet people that they they have never met before voice actors invoice actresses and so if they can't make money elsewhere they're going to increase that cost and they're going to drive away people from this convention and that's what they have been doing. They won't get veteran famous viice overs wanting to come to Younacon, because the more famous voice overs are aware by those they know and friends in the industry how Youmacon treats fans and how money-grubbing they are towards those trying to sell stuff and getting a table to do so, to capping lines early and giving very few times for the major voic overs meet and greets, and then tell fans after being capped pay $$+ juts to have a one on one photo and signing and that's price gouging towards sellers and fans. Not everyone can afford$$ to get a chance to meet veteran famous voice overs etc. It ruins it then for the fans, sellers and voice overs. Then when they try to 'hook in voice overs' to come to Youmacon they can't pay up for the most famous and those who have already showed up warn fellow voice overs they'd have to pay at the convention for a table that's not part of the deal just to meet all their fans, and as such they see Youmacon price gouging fans, sellers, and that they'd have to give their own money to get a table to meet fans is unacceptable so many voice overs stay clear for that major reason, as they don't like what Youmacon has become over the years and harmful to meet and greets by their money-making schemes and price gouging. So when people see people who aren't Anime Famous or not considered a Big Deal Voice Over, or someone who has appeared so many times they find its just not worth it anymore compared to back in the day.

love your pin design and the colors came out so cute!!🥹💜 I have a question, how do artists get reasonable profits from selling enamel pins? I see that they are generally priced at around $10-$12, just like you’re pricing yours too… the manufacturing price you would’ve paid for the ones in your video divided by 30 rounds up to $9,5 per piece 😭 mold fee aside, the unit price is $6.96 which is still very expensive 🥲 now I understand that you can get much better deals by purchasing larger quantities but even so it’s a bit strange to me that enamel pins are much much more expensive to manufacture than acrylic keychains for example, yet I often see acrylic keychains being priced higher than enamel pins 🤔 I’m just starting my own shop and I get that different product types can have different profit percentages but enamel pins seem to be the least profitable from what I’ve seen (unless you have a really big following and can order huge quantities I guess), yet so many artists make them lol!! I’m kinda confused about that, I just don’t really understand 😅

omg!! an artist alley vlog with dbd art :D your art is so beautiful

aaaah your art is so nice and your vlogging style too!! I really enjoyed watching K3

Ahhhh I remember your booth! I kept coming back multiple times to buy DbD grab bags 😆 absolutely my favorite table there! I spent SO MUCH money on your merch 🩵

素晴らしいですね👍️😊日本🇯🇵から

It says that the custom printed board page is not found? Is there anyway I can get some? I've been trying to look for a company to do my boards for aaaa

Hey so I have a question do you know when the vendors hall for 2023 is gonna open this year. Sorry if that question is inappropriate I'm just really curious. I went to youmacon last year and wanted to vendor but missed my chance so maybe this year? (Even though it seems like last year really sucked cheeks)

i love the button maker!! where did you get that one?❤❤

This was such a fun and relaxing video. I’ve been having some anxiety real bad before bed these past few nights and when journaling doesn’t help, I watch stuff like this 😅 so thank you for helping to ease my mind! If I can ask too, so you make the circles for your tape or does that come from your manufacturer? I want to sell washi tape myself, but I’m not sure what will sell best! Also thank you for sharing that printer, I love that they’re women owned and a small business. I will bookmark that in the future as I want to do cons one day.

Your table turned out so great!!! Love it~ Also seeing behind the scenes of someone who uses this methode to display is super interesting, because so far I see it come up more and more, but I never saw how someone prepared these signs. That's really helpful <3 In general I love watching other artists prep x3

Yay I found your art channel! :) hello~

Where did u get the boards?

man i love your aesthetic!

Nice hair! ❤ and those boards are so smart. But I’d be scared my dumbass would get them dented or creased cuz I can’t keep things nice 😭 how do u store then when you travel

Such a cute new table set-up!

i suddenly started screaming while watching this cuz u are the person with the cool af lost boy charm fbdhdjskjaskl

Omg a smaller con that I went to has the same issue they went from fb to discord and even to announce their artist alley open application they did the the day of last minute on a dead discord server… I get it’s volunteer run, but come on now and it opened in June not July like they said last year. Most cons it’s the beginning of the year too. I wanted to do it as the table seemed pretty affordable, but I want to have more online sales and product first. I’m sorry you had issues too.

I really like your table cloth and the banner you put over it that’s super smart and cost effective! I’m going to take note for when I want to do my own con!
