I don't remember which one you said it, but a few months ago one of you said that if I draw something nice and make prints of it that when the anime club goes to conventions you guys will try to sell it for me in your booth. Well, to be frank I've never been to a convention or sold any art piece before, so I'm not sure of the quality I need. So here's a few samples of my more recent works, tell me whether this is printable material: thenewhorde.deviantart.com/#/d36jir9thenewhorde.deviantart.com/art/Misaka-Mikoto-190207537thenewhorde.deviantart.com/art/Utau-Iwane-Akiko-191574626urgh... god i'm burned out. just spent 16 hours straight drawing because I didn't realize my tablet was worn out on the right side so it kept going out of sync... ended up forcing my middle finger onto the pen for steadiness and now it's swelling... should've realized it was the tablet's problem and not my pencil holding... Anyway, I've drew tons of stuff this winter break (still got a week left), these are just a few of the things I drew this winter break. I'm not sure what American anime fans prefer, so I drew a wide range of stuff, help me pick out that you guys think is good enough to make prints of. Also, if I do make prints, how much are they charged? You guys never told me any details except to draw stuff that's good and show you guys.

Btw, although some are fanart mixed in there, all of them are original poses, so there shouldn't be any copyright involved. I am not sure to be perfectly honest, not sure how copyright works when it comes to fanarts. If fanarts aren't appropriate for conventions, I'll do more original works. I have several original paintings stored in my comp that I haven't uploaded.

those are really good and i don't know if JD mentioned it to you but i think Rin has so i'll let her know you posted these and i'm sure we could sell them. prices, i don't know but i'm sure once the semester starts we can talk about it.

LOL.
Actually, now that I think back on it, it was probaby Rin or Ginger that told me that. In fact, I'm pretty sure it was Ryan now that I am trying to remember.
I'm currently doing a full-size painting of Valkyria Chronicle 3 Imca, is there anything you guys would like to see me do?
Also, I know I have attended like only half a meeting in the past year. Well, next semester I don't have Monday night classes, so I'm welcomed amongst you guys, I'll swing by if it's alright with you.
Lastly, do you think if we're going to sell in conventions, we can make a small dedicated production team for projects to raise fund for the anime club? I mean I'm all for the whole "sell your own stuff and make money" but I think it would benefit the club more if I manage to gather a crew of artists to create something. I was told many people in your club draws and are quite good. (Not to mention I don't have all that much confidence in my own ability to sell anything as you already know. Still years until I become a professional level.)

Draw an epic cross between Legend of Zelda, Assassin's Creed, and One Piece.
... didn't know if you were offering this to anyone in the club or just Jim and J.D... Hi I'm Robbie, one of the only three to come on the forums other than you.

nice to meet you Rob.
I'm not an officer or anything of any importance (in fact, i only show up the clubroom like 4 times a semester...), so I have no say in any of this. I am just putting out ideas, the final say is on JD and Jim.

Generally, if going to a convention, you'd want to buy an "Artist Alley Table" section. Make fancy hi-gloss prints to sell. And put your original piece up for bid, so long as they have an auction section. (Most well sized cons do.)
Things that sell well, are "Poster Sized" prints of really good art, or popular characters in settings that can be considered interesting fanart. (Copy-right is rarely a problem unless a direct scene is lifted.) Signing prints with a sharpie is a nice thing to do, for people that buy them. If it's an original art work.
Also, by a rule of thumb, if the original is put into a plastic or glass frame, it will be sold for higher.
