Ohboy, here she is, the show I (Winter) have been doing for exactly 10 years now. I remember aaaalll the way back in 2013 the way I used to look up to other artists who had been doing cons for 10 years and now uh… I Get It. We got a little thank-you card from the show (standard every year, they’re kind of sweet that way) that said they had been running the show for, like, 13 years. So, wow. I’ve basically been doing the show as long as it has been around. Honestly the show itself has evolved a lot since I started. The last two years, something has…

I loooove to acronym this one FBDMCAF because it looks a little bit insane, and well this year it absolutely was insane for the two of us! I’ve been doing this show for about…. five years now? (Since 2016) and Tas has been joining me for about the last 4 iterations! They used to have this bad boy in the park which was (ngl) a little bit awful, so we’re really happy that the new venue is along a good chunk of St Denis street. This whole part gets sectioned off to a pedestrian-friendly zone which makes for a fantastic weekend outdoors for vendors and patrons alike! This year we…

Or as everyone now calls it: VanCAF! This was our third time doing this show and, like our first time doing this one, the energy of it all was fantastic! (Our second time we were placed in the gym and… it was rough… less of a fun time admittedly… not sure its exactly fair that some exhibitors get placed in that part of the Roundhouse). We were admittedly a little bit nervous we got placed in the corner over here and were hoping this wouldn’t impact sales on our end too much (it didn’t, in the end, we were pretty thankful to have the extra space to move freely throughout…

Or a show we lovingly dub, Calgary Expo! This is a show I’ve done… four times?? And Tas about five times now. It was a show we started doing as an excuse to pay off a trip to see each other when we were Long-distance and now has become a show we do so that they can visit back home! Its honestly usually our first show of the year so we were stuck a bit scrambling to get a couple new things done in time for this one this year. What did our table look like? This time… ohhh baby. We took the leap and got our very first Endcap!!…

This post is coming in a bit late since I wasn’t sure if I wanted to do these but I figure its taking up a big part of our life this year so we might as well! Been thinking a lot about doing quick little posts on our impressions of some of the conventions we’ve been doing! Admittedly I’m not going to go heavily into things like statistics or profits made in these types of posts* I’m going to be talking a little bit more about the vibe of the space, the comfort level of the convention etc. Keep reading and you’ll figure it out~! ECCC is a convention I’ve…

Hey folks! You can look forward to maybe a few more posts from us this year outside our usual newsletters! Ending things off for 2022 with a round-up featuring a post with all our convention tables we’ve had this year! Starting with…. Calgary Comics & Entertainment Expo (CALEX) There’s only a couple shows we have 2 tables at and its at our flagship home-turf cons. Tas is from Calgary so we splurge a little with this guy while we visit! These types of tables usually get all of our available stock on our shop so we really try to make use of the table space! — Festival BD de Montreal…
