Artist Alley Vlog ♡ Otakufest

A very different con experience for me, but I still had a great time!! Also the amount of amazing artists I've met at this con was incredible and they're all TOO TALENTED 😭❤️

My 9 yr old begged me to take her. Honestly it was overwhelming. The amount of people there , I felt rushed. I also went on a budget so, wasn't much spending for us. I didn't know what to expect. Next time I'll be more mentally prepared for the amount of people. . And the purpose, pay artists for their work lol.

[@Lalaineartgeek]

I definitely wasn't mentally prepared for the amount of people either, like I knew it was a popular con in Miami but I still felt like I wasn't prepared haha! Thank you so much for supporting artists too!

I’m so sorry your art got stolen that sucks! ☹️ People are so rude especially stealing art of all things like what’s to be gained from that they could have taken a photo of it, but oh well. Also this is just a tip but maybe in case you run out of Artist cards again you could get a laminated QR code for people to scan that would take them to your links, alongside Artist cards. That might even be more convient for some as a whole.

OMG HIIII THATS MEEE AT 12:57 THE ONE THAT WENT TO SAY HI TO YOU!!! I hope you had a great time! It was so nice meeting you in person, hope to see you again soon!!💕💕💕

[@emiknight_vt]

Also I’m so sorry your original artwork got stolen idk how people can be so disrespectful like that 😡 tbh I was worried too that my stuff at my table were gonna get stolen whenever I went to the bathroom, I was A4 at the artist alley but thankfully nothing did.

[@Lalaineartgeek]

@@emiknight_vt It was very nice meeting you in person also!!!

[@simplykamy]

I love the transparency and your energy! New sub ^..^ I'm hoping to get more into artist alley myself as well as switching my vlogs to more artist alley content and your vlog has def inspired me :D thank you so much

[@disasterDee]

Not me seeing my empty booth in Artist alley😂 this makes me want to start vlogging this year for cons🤔

[@Brittanysdesigns]

OMG I can't believe I found another Florida Convention Artist! I've been doing conventions since 2005 and I went to Miami once and I will never go again that place is horrible! I'm glad you at least had some fun with your friends though! I went with friends but none of us had a good time. Hope I can find you at a con here soon!

[@msp4r]

I only display my displays, everything I have is mounted or boarded down so if you were gonna steal, you would physically have to put your back into it. I spent 4 months engineering it to my liking. All products stay under the table in a lock tote my small cash register is also fitted with a wire securing it to my heavy ass lock box. I’m happy and my ethical customers are happy.

[@ChoasIncarnate_]

This is my first time watching and youre such a fun soul! i love your art its so beautiful! So sorry to hear a piece got stolen, iknow other artist tend to only leave one "floor model" out for display and then if someone wants it then they give them the product from behind table. Im also sorry your friends went through a tough time :c

[@Lalaineartgeek]

Thank you so much!!

[@ChoasIncarnate_]

@@Lalaineartgeek It sucks that people cant respect an artist's hard work and not steal something! Like this is most peoples lively hood and they ruining that experience like you said to be actually able to hold the art in their hands and look at it. Sorry again though girl :c

[@CRNekitou]

I’m glad you had a fun time there! I’m upset people stole from your table and it just makes me mad for you!

[@KawaiiStarz]

6:05 Jordan! Great guy!

[@138Xx]

Okay, just finished the video I'm so sorry your first Otaku was a roller-coaster, especially with the stolen print. I did it in 2021 and I had so many mixed feelings about it. Hope your next one goes smoothly! Great vid! Keep it up 😄

[@Lalaineartgeek]

@@138Xx I love Jordan!! Haha, and sadly it is what it is and I just need to be more careful. I'm still thinking if I wanna go back to Otaku but the money was wonderful so maybe! Thank you so much btw!!

[@138Xx]

@@Lalaineartgeek He's great! I feel that. I'm considering it for next year! Anytime! :D

[@pbg624]

I hope you don’t mind me asking but what shop did you buy your chainsaw man cardigan?

[@Lalaineartgeek]

The artist I got the cardigan from is @ plvntfvce (you can find them on instagram) who collaborated with the clothing brand Steady Hands to make it!! :D

[@LittleParade_]

Hello! I'm about to attend my first Artist Alley in June, and I just had a quick question! How many of each item would you say to bring as stock? Like how many of each charm, sticker, etc. Any tips would help, I love your work! Thank you!

[@Christina24life]

You’ll have to put security cameras up. Sorry about the theft

[@Mackerachi]

Looks like a fun weekend, sucks that your stuff got stolen.

[@Lalaineartgeek]

Thank you so much!! And I appreciate it, I'll just be more careful next time
