Blew through 60$ like it was nothing. There were some mdstaro prints i was hoping to find tomorrow so i didn't bring enough. The BA section chawkes full of lolicon.
Tomorrow will be interesting i have to plan a complete route of everything i saved.
Also i got a ton of buisness cards

Ethically I think it's a bit of a betrayal of the spirit of creation. I also think that the generations don't have a chance of standing next to real artists who are willing to get scrutinized in person by a person reading through their work and then putting it down in front of their face.

No.3658
>>3640There were some artists with huge lines... no idea who any of them were, and none of them really stood out as anything that interested me. Most of the rest had only a small line or none at all, and it's definitely possible to have at least a short browse. The bigger problem though is just how many damn people are moving through the aisles, and the need to constantly fight your way through the crowds.
Most of what I bought is from booths I'd already marked out, and I feel (especially when comparing to my experiences at other conventions) that I would have bought a lot more if I could more freely and pleasantly move around and look closely at everything.
Also, on my first browse through, I didn't even see some of those booths I had marked out, and so I had to go back and specifically hunt them down. In other words, it's definitely worth planning things out at least a little if you don't want to miss stuff.

How does it go with artist interactions? Do you get to interact with everyone you buy from or is it more of a if they look free enough or if there's no line you put in a word or two for their work? I suck at communicating or finding out when you're supposed to...

No.3672
>>3670More I think I want to talk a bit more with the artists on the same level and not just appear as a mindless consumer because of my basic level Japanese. I was able to talk a bit more with some of the artists and ask them about their work and future plans but really being able to form some basic conversations like that doesn’t really express the weight of what I want together across. I want to talk with people in the booths like I talk to people on here, and with only basic skills I can’t do that.
No.3674
>>3669I think the worst case is just they confiscate it all to review if it's allowed in. I have no idea how secondary customs works but I'll give them my price breakdown and if they ask to see my books then I don't have anything that stands out. If they roll out the tapestries maybe a problem.

No.3678
>>3672I can relate to this all too well. The last time I went and saw my favorite toddlercon artist, I wanted to give back and let him know what his work really means to me without being able to speak a single word of Japanese. I was doing these hump motions that you typically see black guys doing when they get in close proximity to a female and followed up by making explosion noises with my mouth and gesturing a boom with my hands. The guy looked at me like as if I was mentally challenged, but was nice enough to continue going "Sou sou" as I was explaining. At the end he just bowed and repeatedly said "Arigatou" before extremely quickly facing someone else and seemingly forcing a conversation.
In hindsight I can see how my inability to provide the intricate details made the interaction feel awkward for him and I hope to someday clear up this misunderstanding I must've caused by accident.
