Description The comicon today was great, met lots of nice people, made friends with awesome table neighbours.... BROKE EVEN~ *happy dance~

I thought I was just gonna sit on my chair, sell some Neozoic issues and just draw up some fanart stuff all day, I ended up doing a whole list of free commission sketches the entire time I was there.

To my horror I realized how much I have performance anxiety when I'm drawing in front of people. It took me a very long time [HOURS] to get warmed up on sketches before I finally found a bit of a shaky groove and ran with it. [And I'm still making mistakes as I go along LOL]


Fun fact for the day - I never drew a dinosaur before, you could imagine how nervous I got trying to get it to look "right" with a Neozoic issue ref in my hand.

Sketching on demand is good for you!
(and good for fans,too!)

Very nice, especially considering you had to basically draw them on demand.

I have col-erase pencils, blue and red.

When I'm cleaning up I use either a .5 mm or a .9mm.
