Want Avenger Buttons? Check them out on Etsy!

Buttons are 1.25" with a pinback and are ready to fasten themselves to you, your bag, tote or whatever. Keep an eye on Loki though; they've all got an eye on him now but he will try to escape.

Trying not to spam y'all with product, so just picking a few that I really, really like that I'll be debuting at Youmacon IN LESS THAN TWO WEEKS! Anyone going?

I take pre-orders (in case I sell out), so feel free to note me with what you want and I can put it on hold for you at the table

My Avengers buttons, of which I am only slightly obsessed.

She has recently become obsessed with duct tape. She makes wallets, pens and now rings out of it. I told her if she keeps growing she'll either need to pay me for part of the table or get her own You can see some of her stuff on her DA here; [link] Her pokemon pens actually made it to the front page (premium, most popular in 24 hours) but I'm still ticked at her because my goal has been to get on the front page and still no luck. Sigh. Someday, maybe.
But I'm happy for her She just had her first sale (outside of a convention) yesterday so she's pretty psyched!

She seems really cool! I'll have to watch her! (dA makes everything sound creepy) And you haven't gotten on the first page? I'm surprised, really. But you probably should make her pay at least for a little part of the table if she's planning to make a lot of sales..
But congratulations to her!

It does, doesn't it? Between the sometimes creepy llamas and "watching" people yeah...
Nope, no front page for me It's frustrating because some of the stuff that gets up there isn't even all that good; it's just naked women (excuse me, artistic nudes) or sketches by artists that have a ton of watchers. I mean, some stuff is amazing, but it's pretty much a popularity contest.
My parents actually expect me to pay her for helping me with the table. =o I gave her some money for the last con, but since she's got quite a collection of merch now, that's not going to happen. Nor am I helping pay for her hotel room, as I might have originally. Her sub job she's doing long-term is paying her almost $250 a day! (my fulltime, official job gets me like $550 a week) so she is on her own! I'm the broke one here

Yeah, I'm watching you

It's nice art (except maybe the artist nudes, but draw them if you want) but it's not great, especially the simple sketches. They should really do more for artists like you who have a fair amount of watchers but are still not with a top amount of watchers

And what! Well if she was selling next to nothing it makes sense, but now, as I see her gallery, she should help pay for the table and her own hotel room, especially if the money you make is so drastically different...

I wish there was some way for DA to help promote those of us who have a decent following (400 watchers! I consider that pretty awesome ) but aren't in the thousands. I keep hoping I'll get lots of new watchers from conventions, but so far it's been pretty slow. Got Youma in a week (a week!) so maybe?

Try telling her that She still nickels and dimes me on everything. I get being frugal, but gah! We'll have to see. If she makes like over $400 or something she's going to pitch in something for the table, that's all I'm going to say She made like... $130 at her first and only con thus far, and all she had was wallets. So if she triples that... eryup

That is pretty awesome! But yeah they should do something for people with a decent amount of watchers who are posting a lot and have high quality work... Good luck at Youma- isn't Steam Powered Giraffe going to be performing there?

Ugh... But hopefully both you and your sister will sell a lot at the con!

Steam Powered Giraffes.... I must say I have never heard of them. With a name like that though I'm wondering how I haven't Are they a J-pop group? I'm hoping I have some nice table neighbors who can watch the table for a little bit so I can do some exploring!
Since I'll be staying up there (Detroit is a bit of a commuting distance for a suburb of Chicago!) I'm hoping to make it at least to an evening event or two. If I have to pay for a full badge (which I still think artists should get discounts because we never leave our tables!!!) I am going to attempt to use the darn thing!

Steam Powered Giraffe is this weird steampunk band with robots and people, and they have amazing harmonies.

You have to pay full badge! That isn't fair at all! You're already paying them to sell things there and it's not like you'll be going anywhere at the con. I do hope you get to look around though.

IcyPanther1 In reply to chibinushiechan [2012-10-29 13:33:52 +0000 UTC]

That is so neat! Do they have robot giraffes? That would be amazing! They just realeased the program schedule (although they don't list any of the photo shoot times so gah!, but I'll have to see if I can find them. They're probably part of the night concert, is my guess.

I know! It's a common complaint made by artists (who feel we should gete a discounted badge, or the badge and table should be bundled to make it a little cheaper) but con staff argue that technically we don't have to stay at our table, and because of the set hours for the alley now we can enjoy the evening festivities. But then they say you shouldn't leave your table except for short breaks because it reflects badly on the alley. I'm hoping I get set up next to some nice people (I've been very lucky in both of the cons I've been to thus far) and they can watch my table (not sell, just watch) if I want to go to a photoshoot or something. I mean, normally I'd leave my twin, but we're cosplaying a set of twins so we both need to go.

Eitherway, can't wait! I have so much still to do. I think I'm skipping my last pilates class this morning; my stomach is kind of upset and there's more productive things I could be doing here. I have to get a ton of newsppaer stuff together too since I'll be gone Thursday and Friday! Stress!!!!

Yeah, and no not really... but yeah, that makes sense

Really! Who are you guys cosplaying? But yeah, hopefully there will be some nice people to watch your table! After all, even if you are selling, you deserve to enjoy the convention! 4

Don't kill yourself over this.. Relax (when you get a chance) or something. You deserve it!

I put all of the ones I bought from you earlier on my favorite bag which I take everywhere now. And now my other friends are watching Hetalia, so I might just have to buy more pins!
But those Avengers pins...I want them all right now...I just wanna hug 'em. They're literally the most beautiful things ever. If I wasn't broke as heck right now I'd buy them all. The only problem is that I won't have any money until December, when my birthday is. >< BWAH.

IcyPanther1 In reply to animatedastronaut [2012-10-21 20:49:48 +0000 UTC]

Hehe, get them hooked on Hetalia! I was actually just talking about it to my sis yesterday. We're having a "debate" over who is the best. I'm firmly in the America camp, she loves Italy.
Aww, you are too sweet! I think they're probably one of my favorite buttons I've made, for sures. I also love my Ling Yao button though from FMA
You should nudge people for birthday presents! (and make them early presents ). I've also got a bday in December; it sucks for gifts because most people can spread out birthday and Christmas; we're all jam-packed together.
Also, Etsy now has giftcards! Talk about a super awesome gift!

Haha, I'm a Germany girl all the way! Germany, England and Russia are my lovely babies.
Yeah I know, it's really annoying because you don't have anything to hold you off until Christmas and your birthday. Just...days. That's why I proposed that we celebrate half-birthdays, but my parents said "No."

Daww, Germany Russia scares the hell out of me. His innocent smile coupled with the fact he's so... creepy. Gah! It's why I haven't drawn him. He'd probably curse my computer or something
I know! I have been a firm advocate of summer celebrations as well. June is so much nicer to have a party! We should start a petition for people with birthdays around Christmas to celebrate on our halves instead!

You kidding? It's why he's so creepy that makes him so damn CUTE.

It could also be the fact that I'm just strangely drawn to crazy characters. I have a think for insane characters. I love them.

If you say so I'll stick to America and hamburgers

I tend to be drawn to the sort of asshole type characters. Which is hilarious because in real life I'd never even talk to them. But I guess it's that idea of being able to see their backstory and why they're like that is why I like them.

I see what you mean. (Omygosh my Germany headcannon lawl) I can't say I do the same, but I've a soft spot for (a) older dudes (19 to mid 30s.) (b) dudes with weird noses (lolrussia) (c) the really stern and protective gentleman-y type (Germany <3) and (d) the crazy insane characters.

Stupid male population. Just give me the guy I want.
Although Im impossible to please. I want someone decent looking (I don't consider myself ugly so I don't want to settle for someone who doesn't give two cents about theire apperance), is successful, intelligent, loves sports, likes HP and animes and understands my art/obsession (but not to the point where he's obsessed and it's a little freaky) and someone who can give good back massages. Back massages are a requirement. I was a cat or something in another life, I swear.
