I always get that anxious feeling that IF I made an art booth no-one would end up buying and the whole thing would be a flop💀aaaah

[@zombiekiddo8548]

Same here! That’s why I’ve been debating on this for 2 years now aaaah! I’m sure you’d do great tho so good luck!

[@hannastaudinger3795]

It looked really good! Your art is just so darn cute! ♥

[@emilymeredith9636]

I can’t believe you came to Louisville and I didn’t get to see you!! 😭💕

[@erikathegoober]

Emily Meredith I’ll have to make a bigger announcement in advance next time!

[@kirishima6317]

@@erikathegoober i literally walked past your table so many times and didn't realize it was you

[@mjpete27]

I am so glad you had a good time! Sometimes it can be quite daunting and not a great time is had at every convention or Art show! I hope it was profitable too! Super video and I look forward to watching more vlogs from you soon!

[@Aquabun]

As someone new to selling my art at vendor events I love seeing what other artists do, thank you for sharing!

[@EricaJoyArts]

Thank you for sharing! I I always wondered about the workings involved in this stuff😁 I enjoyed the video! 😊✌❤⭐

[@ivytruongg]

Ooohh!! Thank you for sharing your experience! I love watching con vlogs, one day I hope to have my own table at a con :D

[@Dan-2025]

[@kawaiiartcafe7148]

Also I love your hairstyle, it’s so unique and cute 😋💕

[@abbygale2811]

Amazing tips! I especially loved how you used QR codes so people can find your other stuff (like commissions)! Your art is also super cute! My eye especially caught the BOTW art, haha 😊

[@macs2015]

I just stumbled on your channel. My friend is also an artist and I’ve helped him at cons before, including the huge NYCC, I’ve seen tons and tons of artists that never catch my eye but your artwork is lovely. Super cute. I would get your prints for my daughter.

[@Diamonddusted68]

You do cute so well! Inspired!

[@kawaiiartcafe7148]

[@lydiacasto]

How can i buy your stuff if I can't come to meet you

[@erikathegoober]

Lydia Casto I have an Etsy shop! ☺️🧡 Etsy.com/shop/erikathegoober

[@jycaa6991]

It will be maybe weird to ask that question cause a lot of people have that on their table on convention BUT please what is the name of the kind of grids where your prints are put on ? x) I'm looking for that grids but I don't really know the name of this and It's nowhere in internet x)

[@erikathegoober]

Jycaa these were actually Taylor’s grids! I still need to get some of my own. If you search ‘storage grids’ on amazon they’ll pop up!

[@jycaa6991]

@@erikathegoober Thank you x) I was so frustrated to not find that

[@Jackie_Staar]

I have a question about selling fanart... Apparently a lot of artists at conventions do it even though they dont technically own the property. Would you consider this okay? What are your thoughts about selling characters and ideas that you dont own?

[@erikathegoober]

JR Sketcher I think it depends on the company. Like some companies are really against it but others don’t mind because it’s good advertisement for their games. I sell some fan art at conventions but I also sell originals.

[@Jackie_Staar]

@@erikathegoober that's a good point! It would probably be best to check with the specific company your looking to sell fanart from and see what their policies are on that before you do anything. Thanks for sharing what you think! It helps a lot :) I've been really only seeing two sides to this topic on the internet and it's been baffling me on what I should do 😅 Theres not a lot of youtube videos that discuss this

[@paigesteiner6086]

Will u be coming this year at Columbus galaxy con?

[@erikathegoober]

Possibly! My next convention is Lexington Comic Con at the end of March!

[@paigesteiner6086]

@@erikathegoober kk I was just asking just hoping that I’ll get to go & hopefully i will meet u

[@Rima__]

Hey :3 I have a question, I’m a little confused bc a lot of artists are selling fanarts is it ok? I mean are they allowed to ? Or did they have permission for this? or is just everyone allowed to sell fanarts no matter from what they’re o: ? This topic is sometimes so confusing >.

[@sabrinaghostblade3948]

This may be late but it depends on the company/original creator. Typically you’d have to do research or find out whether or not you are allowed to do fan arts. Also I think it depends on the convention on the % of how much of it is similar to the original.

[@xolove3435]

Has selling your art at a convention been worth it?

[@erikathegoober]

Yes!! I've only done 2 so far with another one coming up. But in both I made a good amount of money plus my favorite thing is getting to meet people who follow my work online irl!

GOOD JOB MY NIGGA
