Microcast #14: Megacon 2010

krishna — Mon, 15 Mar 2010 13:14:02 +0000

Update: Microcast now up!

Update 2: Now with photos!

…and here’s my table:

(Apologies for the grainy photos. Disposable cameras, it would seem, do not do justice to the technicolor wonder that was Megacon.)

I’m still recovering from the experience that Megacon was. I have a few errands and such to catch up with this morning, so I’ll keep things brief until I return. I took photos, but they were from a disposable camera (remember those?). I’ll have them developed later ~~this week~~ this evening.

From a financial standpoint, Megacon treated me really well. “Rebootus Maximus” made it into the hands of several new readers, and I had a few folks who had stopped by last year, who came back to buy this year.

The PC Weenies / UNcubed Sampler #2 made its debut at the show, despite a delivery slip-up by Ka-Blam (more on that later).

Gotta run, but that’s the abbreviated summary for now. A microcast, with more details, will follow later this afternoon.

Egg Faced

I can’t tell you how many times I changed the supervisor’s dialogue for panel 3. Okay, it was 11 times. The one I sent via the Toon Mailer has an earlier attempt. I wanted to come up with a funny water-based phrase to lead into the punchline. Hope it delivers, because I’m always second guessing myself on things like that.

Just a reminder…

I’ll be having a table at Megacon in Orlando, Florida this Saturday and Sunday. I’ll have copies of “Rebootus Maximus”, and both Sampler editions available for sale, along with free sketches!

This is my first “BIG” show – last August, Aarti and I attended Mini-Megacon, which was scaled down version of the main show (both in terms of vendors and audience). The main Megacon show brings a ton of people – so it should be a great time.

If you’re planning to attend, stop by my table (I’ll be in Artist Alley, with a huge PC Weenies vertical banner behind me) – you can’t miss it!

Don’t forget to check out today’s UNcubed while you’re at it!

Guest-Starring: Pleek!

krishna — Fri, 05 Mar 2010 10:46:06 +0000

A few weeks ago, I appeared on the PixelatedGeek podcast. It was a ton of fun to hang out with the crew there. Nelson, one of the members of the team, commissioned me to have the PixelatedGeek mascot (dubbed Pleek) appear within a PC Weenies strip.

What is significant about this guest-star is that it marks the first time another cartoon character has appeared in a PC Weenies strip as a guest-star. Including Pleek was a bit of a fun challenge for me, because the only point of reference I had for the character was the image shown in the PixelatedGeek header.

Guest-starring is super-easy, and a neat way to have you, your friends, or even your own character appear in a PC Weenies strip.

BONUS limited-time deal for this weekend ONLY:

Order a guest-star appearance at the $35 level or higher and get an autographed copy of “Rebootus Maximus” (the first PC Weenies book) with your favorite PC Weenies character sketched inside — included with your order! PLUS, US orders get FREE shipping!
