A lot of people rolled through considering it was the first year of the show. I got to see some old friends, make some new ones and sell some art. One of those friends, and one of the people who helped the show on the behind-the-scenes tip, is <a href=\"http:\/\/obliviousally.deviantart.com\/\">Ally<\/a>. Thanks to her camera, you can see what my table looked like:<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.illmosis.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/allamericon2010_myprints_ally.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.illmosis.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/allamericon2010_myprints_ally-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"allamericon2010_myprints_ally\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-31\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.illmosis.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/allamericon2010_myprints_ally-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.illmosis.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/allamericon2010_myprints_ally.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nOther heralds of awesome include <a href=\"http:\/\/cmkasmar.deviantart.com\/\">Chris Kasmar (dA page here)<\/a>, Jay Fife (Not Safe For Work: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jayfife.com\/\">site here<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/jfife.deviantart.com\/\">dA page here<\/a>) and the crew from <a href=\"http:\/\/holygrailcomics.net\/\">Holy Grail Comics<\/a>. I&#8217;d like to thank Greg, Josh and the rest of the All-American Comics crew, Market On The Square for being a wonderful host, everybody that stopped by and checked out the table and extra thanks to those who bought something or did an art trade with me. Shout out to the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.johio.com\/\">JOhio<\/a> reps (especially Edgefind) who made it to the event. It was my first convention table ever but everything went smoothly.<\/p>\n<p>While I&#8217;m making this topic ridiculously long, I may as well post a link to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.scrollboss.illmosis.net\/blog\/2010\/05\/08\/vs-maker-0-85-added\/\">the ScrollBoss post about the big Vs. Maker update<\/a> that was made last week. I worked on bits of it during the week before the convention dove into it but went into overdrive on it last week to the point where I uploaded it a week early.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s enough for now. I&#8217;ll see you next week with updated Pac-ladies and Vs. Maker funk on ScrollBoss.
