Adventures in Fandom and other things
Sep. 28th, 2018 03:01 pmI've been fairly busy lately, in between snoozing for England. Yesterday's highlight was getting to meet the totally charming ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
kazluvsbooks, over from the Land Down Under - with the only downside being I had to pre-book my trains so only got to spend a couple of hours with her and her lovely friend Julie, milly_gal, dizzojay and Sue (a fellow JIBcon-goer).
Spot the hobbit.
What else?
Art stuff
I've been working on a poster for my friend Wendy, who's off to Paris next weekend for a Spartacus convention. I'll do a post about that when the convention is over. Inktober is coming up so I'm hoping to manage an ink drawing a day for that, starting (unsurprisingly!) on Monday 1st. Though I may not be able to post them every day due to being away in Venice for a few days, followed by Manchester.
Wild in Art news - I've now sent off two designs for Plymouth's Elmer the Elephant trail next year, and one out of a possible three designs for Ipswich's Elmer trail. The latest announcements have been that there will be a trail of wallabies in the Isle of Man and gorillas in Jersey!! So I will be designing for those critters soon. Keep everything crossed for some of my designs getting picked to paint in a few months time when they do their shortlisting and selections!
Oh! And JIBland in Rome next May just got a tad more interesting, as it seems highly likely the next guest to be announced is Sebastian Stan!!! Got to say, I'm going to be rather chuffed if this is true. For those of you that don't know, JIBland is a two day multifandom event that's been tagged onto JIBcon for the last few years. Attendance for JIBland is usually much lower than for JIB, but with someone like Seb headlining, who knows!
