To anyone who knows anything about this: I'm looking to set up a donation/art request/buying thing online to raise money for Fan Expo and I need your help. I want to make it as easy as possible for people to make transactions with me, and eliminate as many barriers to getting it done fast and efficiently. If anyone has had experience selling through etsy/society6/their own sites/ whatever else I would love to hear from you.

Related to this: I've decided to try and raise funds to enter as an exhibitor at this year's FanExpo. It's a convention at the Metro Convention Centre for comics/games/anime/movie fans. One aspect of this convention is an artist's alley. The cost of the bare minimum booth is $375+taxes, which means if I want to be a part I need to raise that money. I thought, what better way to both prepare and fundraise than to offer my services!

http://www.fanexpocanada.com/ Here's a link to the convention's site. It's the only thing in Southern Ontario that I have found that caters to artists like myself, and it would mean so much if you guys could help me out.

The more you are willing to donate, the more effort I will put in to the drawing. Wanna pay $1 to make me draw a bowl of cereal? Cool. Wanna pay $5 to get a Boba Fett portrait? Awesome. Whatever you can think of I will do, and the more you give me, the more I give back. If you spend enough I will get it printed and shipped to you too! Name your price, name your subject and I will do it. All of the money raised will go towards getting myself in this Expo.

If I reach my goal I will try and think of something extra uber special to give to all contributors as a token of my appreciation.

Please help me out, it would mean a hell of a lot. Let your friends know, let anyone you know, know.

Get a job you fucking hippie!

I'm joking. If I had money to give I'd totally be all over this though.

EDIT: You're a pixel artist too, have you tried PJ? My friend has been getting a constant flow of jobs since about the start of the month. Might wanna try there.

Hey, not a bad idea. I will look into there. Thanks for the heads up.

Still in the process of getting Paypal/ some dedicated location set up to track all of this. Considering Kickstarter/IndieGoGo and stuff require you be in the states, or that you pay a processing fee, I want to just set up something more direct.

Okay! I've revamped my website to track the progress of this project, along with a donation button to keep track of everything.

Just click on this thing:

So to Eigenbom, I will get to your picture asap, to everyone else, check out the new site, and if you feel so inclined, contribute and I will make you something!

The response for this has been really great! So far I'm up to about $280 out of the $400 I hope to raise. So please, check it out, keep the love coming! You will not regret it!

Oh cool. I love your cool artstuffs, mang.
I'd love to donate, but first I have to think of something to force you to draw...
... Can I pay you money to teach me how to draw? Beg
Seriously though, if I paid you for pixel art, could I use it in a flash game that might get sponsored, therefore getting me money? Would you sue me? I don't want to be sued but I love your pixel art and I'm very lazy.

Oh, okay then. Sorry for asking.
I'd still like to commission some drawing to put on my wall, I just can't think of anything.

Sorry! I'm not saying it's bad to ask. of course not, I ask crazier things of people all the time. But maybe in a PM or something. That's all I meant.
