East Coast Comic Expo 2013 Wrap-Up

I really liked how I did my wrap-up last year for Animaritimes so I figured I would follow the same style for East Coast Comic Expo as well! This past Saturday was the First Annual East Coast Comic Expo and it was a GREAT event! There were a ton of people there, from all ages and walks of life, and it seemed very well organized!

My Table! My layout is starting to look really professional!

My favourite part of ECCE was: seeing lots of people I know and getting a ton of great compliments! Also my little Iron Man found a new home with Advance Iron and hungout at their table for most of the day!!!

See! Right there in the bottom left hand corner!

There were also some amazing costumes! Sorry to everyone who put a ton of work into their costumes, but I think the best was a little 2-3 month old baby dressed up like Super Man... HE WAS ADORABLE!

My least favourite part of ECCE was: my table location... I was in the back corner, with my back to the rest of the room, once the kids activities taking place in my area ended around noon, it really died down back there... Also the cold! It was freezing in there and it took me hours after leaving to get my feet warm again.

What surprised me the most about ECCE was: the amount of people! I really didn't expect that many people to be coming out for this event as it was the first time ECCE was being held, but there were lines and crazy crowds! It was a very fun atmosphere!

What I learnt at ECCE was: I need more dolls! I was disappointed in myself for not having the time/capability to make more and as I nearly sold out within the first few hours (which was AWESOME) I felt like I was letting down the people who came by later, by not having more for them.

The next step for me is: Animaritimes! Instead of relaxing on Saturday night I finalized my list of dolls for Animaritimes, which is REALLY ambitious, but I already have 12 items started, so I'm hoping I can keep momentum up and finish up my planned list! Current to do list has 38 items... 6 new hairclips, and 32 dolls...

Wish me luck! Also anyone looking for commissions, I will be accepting those after July 3rd!
