I'm the exhausted guy at the top.
Another Winnipeg comic con has come and gone, and I'm happy to report that I managed to double my print sales compared to last years show
between that, all the great people I met, and the copious amount of other shenanigans I got up to this weekend, I'm placing this Halloween firmly into the the legendary category. boo-ya
C4 comic con has been growing in leaps and bounds the last couple years, we saw a huge amount of attendandance, and it does not seem to be slowing down in the slightest
Friday:
Set up my table at the con, the volunteers, of course, sent several artists to the wrong tables, so there was a bit of shuffling, but I've come to expect things like that at c4...
I had to duck out of the convention early in order to take off to Brandon for my eldest sis's wedding social. My friends and I managed to take home the group costume prize at the end of the night... as the group of sexy nurses.
Saturday:
The very good looking and talented James Gillespie (friend of mine) was kind enough to work my table Saturday morning, giving me a chance to recover from the social and make my way back into Winnipeg.
After the frenzy that is Saturday at a con, there was a quick visit at Boston Pizza for a beer and perogi pizza (oh my god delicious) and then it was off to the Six Pines Haunted house, just outside of Winnipeg- much scarier when your with people who scream at the slightest noise. definitely worth checking out
Sunday:
Sunday at c4 was the very first time I've ever seen the biggest attendance on the last day of a show, thank you Will Shatner
Sales were steady throughout the day, I had amazing people as neighbors, and as always, the end of the show, there was a rushed race to catch various artists before they packed up- for art trades. got some good stuff.
Still mentally and physically exhausted from the show, but already getting excited about the prospect of the next big con, and have made a big long list of new pieces to get ready in time for it
ps- i take no credit for any of these photos just grabbed a couple off facebook to promote the show.
