COMICCON BATTLE PLAN
I've suddenly decided to do a bunch of drawings by next week and publish them with some of my favorites from this past year as a sketchbook for Comic-con. I'm really happy with the ones I did last night! I'll be posting some of the outtakes and previews here later, but there should a big chunk of not-seen-before drawings in it! So please come by my booth! <3

I'll probably have some free temp tattoos to hand out, too... and as always I'll have copies of Japan Ai and my previous sketchbooks for sale. If you buy something, I'll do a sketch for you!
FIGHTO! FIGHTO!

IMPT. INFO
MY SDCC BOOTH IS G-9 (row 800...go towards the back of the convention center, right across the aisle from Missmonster) I'll be at the convention for the entire time (including preview night), but due to the Doctor Who shenanigans on Sunday, you're unlikely to find me much at the booth on Sunday except a couple hours before dealers' room close. Other than Sunday, if you come by and I'm away from the booth, my fellow booth mates can try to txt me to bring me back. I'll do my best. <3

I'll also have some artwork of Felicia in the Udon Darkstalkers Tribute Book which will be sold at SDCC booth 5112 and online.

In the course of doing potential drawings for my sketchbook, I drew this one, but I won't be including it in this year's comiccon sketchbook. It's of Ichi. (Ichi is a japanese film where the protagonist is basically a female version of Zatoichi the blind swordsman.)
you can see an english subbed teaser of Ichi here

See you @ Comicon!

Whoa!!! That iPhone app is rad! Imma get me that on my iPod touch! Neat!

[katie-can-draw.livejournal.com]

awesome! i'll definitely mosey away from my table for a bit to pick up one of your sketchbooks!

Yay! And we are tall enough to be able to high five each other across the aisle without getting up ;P SEE YOU THERE!

Oooh, I'll def. have to come by and pick up your sketchbook!!! Yay for free tattoos! Kitties? =^.^=

I'm so excited for Comic-Con... having a hard time choosing panels to attend already. :p

Hearing you and Danielle rave about Doctor Who, I know I really need to check it out. I bet I'd like it! I think I'll be bringing the laptop for evening viewing/relaxing... any place to watch the series online? Where should I even start??? I'll def. be bugging Danielle for help too lol.

yeah I might do Youta kitty tattoos. :)

do you have netflix? that's an easy way to watch it! I would start with a few really well reviewed episodes, and then go back to series 1 (with the ninth doctor) and work your way through.

so start with one of these or something (or ask Danielle for a starter ep recommendation, too...) :
Series 2: The Girl In the Fireplace (pretty Madame de Pompadour!)
Series 3: Blink (angel statues that come to life)

the great thing about those two, is that they'll give you a Doctor Who feeling, but you can watch them out of context and they wont really spoil the story for you.

Youta tattoos sound too cute! ^_^

Thanks so much for the recs, and I do have netflix! Just have to finish up what we have and I'll load these up in the queue. Hopefully I'll get them in time to bring them to con. :)

You'll be a few rows over from another Artist Alley personage I know (cupcake_goth over in A6), so I'll try to drop over when we come by her :D

And the iPhone of Japan Ai is soooo tempting (sorry, I just got my first iPhone evar and I am <3-ing it sooo much!)

sketchbooks

[(Anonymous)]

due to the fact that I'm in NY and have already used up all my vacation time for the year going to England I can not get to San Diego. T_T. I was wondering if there was a chance I could order your sketchbooks on line, perhaps after the SDCC if there are any left? I got your Dr. Who skecthbook a few moths ago and LOVED it!! How many others do you have?

thanks,
amy

and this older anthology:

and then I'll have my new one for 09. Yes, you can order them online, but please check with me after SDCC. Things are a bit hectic right now preparing for the con. :)

much thanks!

I have the Japan Ai app on my iPhone! It's really cool. I can read the book wherever I go which is really nice because if I ever get bored somewhere I have something that puts a smile on my face. ^_^

BTW, I adore your book and I love the kitty you drew when you autographed my book.

[aimeekitty.livejournal.com]

aw man, thanks for giving me a bit smile tonight. I really appreciate it! I'm so glad you like it that much. <3 <3

Also, I dont know if I told you before, but your cosplay is so lovely! You have a really beautiful smile. Please have a great week. XD
