It was my first time attending a convention-like event at the National Space Centre as an artist. I probably wouldn’t have considered it had I not been invited but ‘twas a cool experience and was really nice to meet fellow manga inspired artists and fans alike.

I spent most of my time in the Artists Alley along with talented artists: Chie Kutsuwada, Laura Watton-Davies, Jodie Azhar, Emma Vieceli and Dock, selling postcard prints of some of the character pin-ups I’d worked on and chatting to fans about what I do and art-related things.

I’ll probably attend a few more similar events in the future to get a greater feel for the whole con-going experience and see how they compare :)
