This makes my third year attending the Motor City Comic Con, and I have to say that it feels good having another one under my belt. Again, I had the pleasure of sharing a table with Jason W. for a second time, as well as Brandon C., a first-timer to the comic convention scene. Both are former college classmates of mine and all-around real good guys, too, so it made for a very comfortable visit of drawing and chatting during the show.

Sadly, while AdamWithers and ComfortLove (creators of the self-published series 'The Uniques') were unable to attend, we were able to see some other familiar faces from the Grand Rapids area, including Gina V., SCOTTeFRESH, and even an illustration professor of ours. It was very encouraging to visit with each of them for a bit. Also visiting Guy Davis' table was a special treat since he's a personal favorite of mine, contributing enormously to Dark Horse's 'B.P.R.D.' series as well as his self-made series, 'The Marquis'.

Didn't sell a lot of prints, though the Fast Food Mafia did alright. The caricatures, however, went over very well. So that was reassuring. As you may have noticed, there are also some recent additions to the gallery. During my downtime, I hammered out some monochromatic marker drawings to sell. Well, none of them actually sold, so if one should happen to catch your eye be sure to let me know!

:spotlight-left:ARTIST FEATURE:spotlight-right:
In the spirit of community, I decided to feature a different, fellow dA'er fairly regularly. To the artists: please don't feel obligated to do the same, this is just something that I wanted to do. I enjoy your work and I want others to as well.

This journal's featured artist is... (drum roll, please)... :fingerscrossed:

:winner: WhiteTigaw! :iconwhitetigaw:
As the winner of our Salad Days contest's Summer category, she gets a special feature in my journal for this month. She went above and beyond the call of duty by submitting not one but four entries into our little contest, one for each season. Thank you very much, WhiteTigaw! So take some time to look over my personal picks from WhiteTigaw's gallery, and of course I encourage you to browse through her gallery yourselves.

Here are some examples of her work:
