Style Challenge

August 24, 2024

IbisPaintX + Movavi

Wanted to do the thing where I see how much my style is influenced by what brush I use. Was fun! There were a few others that I halfway finished, but I like this lineup of four that I got done. Cool to see how different they are. Airbrush supremacy tho 💪💪💪

Used a ref from pinterest for this one (now I'm a certified real artist 😎)

Used movavi to create the gif so that it wouldn't have the huge ibispaint logo on it

Anifest Stamp Rally Poster

October 23 - November 3, 2024 Time: 6:03 IbisPaintX

Poster design I made for Anifest at my uni.

Me and a few of the other vendors joined up to organize a stamp rally, and this was one of the things we prepped for the artist alley beforehand. One of us had suggested different colour palettes, and this orange/teal one won the vote.

This was just a really cute little thing to draw. Was a good break from the other more complicated illustrations I had been working on.

The Miku design and stickers were created by by @/ciel on instagram :3

Insaniquarium | Presto, Meryl

"She flung her arms so fast you couldn't see [them move the tits] because of the time dilation - that it makes [the tits] move like that"

I am not the first to draw insaniquarium r34, but I at least contributed to the cause 😔✌️

Kept on imagining an aggressive little murder family when I listened to this song so I drew it.

Wanted to make it very shapely and give each person a distinct body type. Did it p well

Anifest Artist's Alley

November 5, 2024

The fated day finally came!! Definitely was a stressful time. I made stands for the sticker promo board and the board I hung the posters on at the makerspace earlier in the day. Me and my friend also made cute little fandom labels for the stickers.

I invited quite a few of my friends to come hang out during this debacle. It was a blessing and a curse. One of my friends in particular kept on pissing me off by constantly nagging me abt how "increase profits." Actually got pissed off to such a high degree but I digress.

Anyways, the event was really cute. There were a LOT of vendors. Hot damn, was the room crowded. A lot of them were also seasoned vendors which was pretty crazy. I wish I had gone around and been more friendly to them, but I see why I didn't this event had me exhausted before it even began.

I ended up setting the pricing as: 3$ for one large sticker, 5$ for two large stickers, $1 for one small sticker, and $15 for one poster.

Things I learned:

Less clutter! The table was really overwhelming and I'd like space to put my laptop for excel tracking xP

Actually have people follow my art account for receiving my stamp for the stamp rally

Just chillll, have a good timee. It'll be a lot easier when I do it again because 90% of the work will already be done, but I still need to remember that this is for the fun sillies and that I don't need to focus on numbers at all.

-

According to my Excel sheet (which definitely is not 100% accurate because I forsure missed a few things), the data is as follows:

58 Stickers Sold

0 Posters Sold

Cost: 141.35

Revenue: 118

Profit: -23.35

Note: the cost includes sticker paper/some supplies that I didn't actually use, but because it was related I included it. Also, the vinyl was apparently 50$ which I swear it wasn't- never in my right mind would I buy that. Still put it in as 50$ because whtvr.

The most popular sticker designs were: The Knight (13), Coraline (7), and Grimm (6).

**Some of them were traded for other stickers / not exactly sold**

0 posters sold?? Yepppp. I think it's less of a pricing problem, but more of a people just weren't interested in the fandoms. I would've sold them for any amount of money tbh, but noone seemed interested. Plus, I tried to do a poster trade with someone and they declined because they weren't familiar with any of the fandoms. I mean I didn't know the fandoms their posters were about either, but ig a lot of people aren't interested in posters purely for the illustration 🥲🥲

So I have a lot of posters... Teehee. I'll definitely try to sell them next year again (as I will with the leftover stickers), but I don't know if it'll make much of a difference. Hopefully, though 🙏🙏🙏

Idk man it's strange because I genuinely look at those four pieces and am so proud that I made it. Like the craftsmanship yo. I can't tell if I'm genuinely just being delusional, but it's not like anyone close to me has given me the impression that they're actually terrible drawings either.

Ofc my own opinion is what matters most, and despite the doubt that the lack of sales for these posters has given me, it hasn't changed how much I absolutely love those pieces. Especially because the technique I used changes for each one. All of them give me a different thought of "I can't believe I made that" and takes me out of the whole 'I can immediately tell how I made that' mindset that I fall into when subconsciously trying to devalue my art/skills. I really have to think to recall the techniques I used to make each piece (O.K. maybe not the hellboy one but still), because they're all so damned complicated. Idk I love them a lot, but I will be forever a little bit bummed that other people don't love them as much as I.

I remember this drawing, but I don't remember the thought process behind it at all. Rlly like it though. Think this was recently after I'd unlocked the ability to do side profiles.
