Autumn is typically very busy for both myself and my husband with a string of conventions we attend.
OddConUK (11th – 13th Oct) is a friendly roleplay gaming convention for which my husband runs the website and is generally co-organiser. I did the website art when the site was given an overhaul and I’ve been attending for a few years now, showing my art and selling t-shirts. Although generally I don’t expect to do much trade there, I’m always pleasantly surprised at how much attention my stand gets and my new art went down a real treat. This year was really busy and I was very pleased with the responses.
IndieCon (7th – 10th Nov) is another roleplay convention primarily focussed at independently published games (often referred to as “indie games”). I’m usually quite busy at IndieCon, though this year attendance was down. Nonetheless, it was a fun convention and I got to catch up with a lot of people I don’t see at OddConUK.
Dragonmeet (7th Dec) is a very big and very different convention to the others. There’s a lot more focus on traders and the industry, with panels and seminars also taking place. Of course, as well as buy stuff, attendees can play games just as with other conventions. In its time, Dragonmeet has attracted quite an array of impressive guests, including industry professionals and prominent artists. I’ve been a guest at Dragonmeet four times previously, but after a break I’m returning as a guest artist alongside the talents of Ralph Horsely, Matt Dixon and Andy Hepworth to name just a few. Very excited to be a guest at Dragonmeet showing off my new stuff. If you’re in London (or can easily or willing travel to it), come by and say ‘hi’ and maybe pick up a print or t-shirt. I’ll also be taking orders for some of my other licensed products.
