Good point. I have the wall space for something like that (unless it's bigger than like 6 feet), but can understand most people not having that much room. Let alone disposable income.

Small (city face) £20 Medium (most of them) £35-£40 depending on canvas thickness Large (the two tall coyote ones) £50 Perspex squares £30 each I ended up with Cityface for me, two medium coyotes (the close up of the face and a special order I made, based on the "scattering stars" comic page) for my siblings and a sketch. Those treatise prints are mighty tempting too, and there are friends who still need Christmas pressies. Tomorrow, I may have more money...

Also to anyone thinking about going to thought bubble I would highly recommend it, if nothing else the people of leeds are very nice. I didn't know how to get to the event from the station but two random people I met on the train dressed as Harley Quinn and a heavy from TF2 let me tag along with them, which was kind of them.

Whoever was suggesting you could charge twice that was not kidding. I've seen random black and white photos of a water ripple in coffee shops that sell for like $150 CDN (around 92 pounds) and those things are maybe the size of the city face painting, and nobody goes to a coffee shop looking for artwork. Gouge those motherfuckers at the cons like the delicious sacks of money they are.

I've had a well respected artist tell me to never sell a painting for less then $300. Me, an art school drop out with no following. You have fans. You can EASILY get away with that price point. Take our challenge. Put one painting up on E-Bay and mention it on the site and see what ends up selling for.

On the one hand, I'm reluctant to urge Tom to price his work more highly, because it means I'd no longer be able to afford it. On the other hand, gently caress THAT DO IT CHARGE MORE MONEY! Got Vols. 1 and 3 in the post, they're amazing. I keep noticing stuff I never saw in the online edition, I guess because I'm closer to it and more involved in reading it. Well worth it, thanks Tom.

I can't believe one of the Coyote ones didn't sell. At least now I'll finally have a chance to buy one.

Ironic Twist posted:Cover your drat mouth when you sneeze, Parley. Geez. That said, bip and BARGE looks to be extremely effective, especially kitted out in longsword gear. However, she needs to figure out a way to take her longsword and gear and you know what some proper armor as well with her to combat Jeanne. She knows Zwee fighting, but what happens when Jeanne brings etheric steel to the fight? What I'm really saying is Parley should stop fighting Robot and fight Jones (who is a better Robot)

In the German school of fencing, which is what Parley uses, there are a set of moves that are referred to as "hauen", or "hews". "Unsichtbarhau" is "unseen-hew", named for obvious reasons. (  )

I do remember that one, but that one at least fit stylistically, the Parley one feels out of place almost. I don't think the effect quite works. Instead she just looks smaller than normal but with a really long sword.

I am pretty sure that Jones is, in fact, a black hole that walks like a woman and has complete casual control over her mass and density. How they've managed to construct a robot around that, I'll never guess.

George's "Biptenhauer fencing" plus SSJ2-Annie's powers alongside Parkourbot should be more than enough to handle Jeanne at the bottom of the ravine. I hope we do not get to that part yet though. I want to see if we'll get more on Eglamore and Jones' background.
