Well, I got back from it on Sunday. A bit late, but I thought I'd do a little storytime.
I went as Shana from Shakugan no Shana both days just so you know. Expect some pictures!
DAY 1
God was Saturday hectic. The building didn't seem to support any wireless device this year, and I had hell trying to call my friends to meet up. Then there was the Ubisoft booth and their Just Dance 4 preview that drew a freakishly large crowd. I got stuck in it at least three times. Other than that, it was great. Bought a lot of sweet animu/X-Men swag. Being the sad, pathetic fangirl I am, I spent $25 dollars on a tiny Izaya figure. Bite me.
I didn't have too many people recognizing me, but the people that did were really nice. One guy said I was dressed up as his waifu apparently. I also caught the Tiger & Bunny panel, so that was a lot of fun.
And let's not forget the Homestuck meet-up. was dressed up as a Homestuck character, so I decided to hang out with him until the panel started. That cosplay meet-up blocked off a whole entranceway and it took an hour before anyone decided to kick them out. O_O
DAY 2
I actually managed to stay undder budget and bought only one thing that day. Hung out with my buddies, and . We did people watching for most of the day. Found the best 10th Doctor cosplayer ever! He was so in character, if his accent were correct, I literally would've thought we were actually meeting the Doctor.
Main highlight of Sunday was the FUNiMATION Entertainment panel. It was my first ever industry panel, and I was super excited. It was awesome getting to hear the new licenses before anyone else, but the best part was probably when I got to ask a question about their former FUNico program. They got pretty quiet and awkward before answering. I personally don't believe their answer, but whatever.

Other News
Sorry for not abding to my Worldwide Overture every two weeks thing. With Comic-Con and the upcoming PSATs, I haven't had time to do anything hobby related. (In fact, I shouldn't even be writing this journal right now.) I'll be back on schedule soon with double the posts!
And remember that whole review every animated movie thing? With good viewings of Hotel Transylvania and Frankenweenie, big expectations for Wreck-It Ralph and Rise of the Guardians, and moderate expectations for The Croods, Monsters University, and Epic, I honestly thought this would be a swell idea.
Then I discovered this monstrosity:www.youtube.com/watch?v=x8pDKi…
And I realized I had to watch it.
So if you hear any news stories this December about a girl committing suicide in a movie theatre after shouting obscenities at a kids' flick, now you'll know why.
Long post is long. (I needed an excuse to procrastinate on studying. )
EDIT: One more con story! I literally thought I was the only Shana. Then right when I started walking out of the con on Sunday, I saw another. WHAT THE FLYING FUCK WERE THE ODDS?!

The State of This Account and DeviantArt
Hey hey. It's been a long while since I've written a journal. You've all probably seen what's going on with dA with the whole AI fiasco. The situation is awful and I'm understandably expecting a lot of users and deviations to disappear from my following/er lists and favs. I don't blame anyone for leaving and taking their shit with them. With that being said, I'll be staying. I do art full time, and I just don't have the income or notoriety to drop any major platform where I have an even halfway decent presense. It'll be risky, but I'm going to try my best to navigate through this site amidst all the AI stuff as best as I can. Personally, I'm pretty confident in thinking that my art style probably isn't in high demand for AI nor do I think it's easy to replicate through it. Hopefully I'm right on both accounts. The past few weeks in general have been a huge wake up call to really start taking social media more seriously. I used to be content with sticking to the same few places and
Commission Info! Help me During This Quarantine!!!
Hey all! As you all probably know, we in America are officially boned. As such, I'm going to need as much as I can get at this time because I am a full time freelance artist who is getting 0 benefits during the mass social distancing and am struggling to find anyone openly looking for artists and animators during this crisis. I have actually had commissions up for quite some time, but this is my first time making it known on DeviantArt.
I WILL ONLY BE ACCEPTING CASH PAYMENTS. NO POINTS. I do not use DeviantArt points and as far as I know, there is no way to convert them over to actual money I can use outside this site, so please only contact
My Shop is Officially Open!!
Hey all! I've officially opened up a Storenvy shop where I'll be selling the merch stock I bring with me to conventions. Please come check it out!
https://jennliart.storenvy.com/
If you're a fan of the Daily Disney Princess drawings I do, the laminated art card prints I make of those are not currently up yet because I am in the process of making that into a print-on-demand service and need to figure out the best way to present them all in the store. Please keep an eye out for those in the future!
Currently only shipping to the US. At least until I figure out how international shipping rates work.
