Lucifer convention art

[amberdreams]

I'm off to Brighton at the weekend for a Lucifer con with nearly all of the main cast, which is rather cool. Originally I'd thought I wouldn't bother getting the autographs that are included in my pass, but then I had a rethink, last minute as usual. Because I know what I'm like, when I get there I'll be wanting all those signatures, even though I don't know what to do with them afterwards. Just like I couldn't resist getting some photo ops. *sigh*

So anyway, that left me scrabbling round for an idea for something for them to sign. I'd ordered this concertina sketchbook a while ago with no idea what to do with it, then I had an idea...

Here's where I've got to so far. I'm aiming to add a bit more gold ink - maybe. I'll have to see what it looks like in the morning.

It's A5 size, so not too big, and the sketchbook came with a box, which is nice. Now I'll have to see if I can think of something else I could do in it for this year's JIB, maybe.

What a smashing design, AMB! I had to google concertina sketchbook and it is indeed what I thought it was, I love that you used the length of the paper, but how the letters also work in their individual space, very cool:) Wishing you loads of fun in Brighton!

I could see you having a lot of fun with one of these sketchbooks - you could make pop-ups!

This book is actually longer than the part I've used, so now I'm thinking about what I can do with the rest of the length and of course, the other side!

Wow, I love what you did here, and what a perfect design for this type of sketch book too. I love the intricacy of the feathers and the splashes and flicks of colours. Simply gorgeous!!!

Thanks very much! I'm wondering whether I can use the rest of this book for something to get signed at JIB too, though I'm not entirely sure what, yet.

That's fabulous! Your creativity and ability to actually Do The Thing never cease to amaze me.

Thanks so much! I doubt I'd be so busy creatively if it wasn't for all the encouragement I get from you chaps. It's very motivating!

That's great, what a brilliant idea. It looks really effective, I'm sure the guests will love it!
Is this the LUX convention?

[amberdreams.livejournal.com]

Thank you! Yes, It's Starfury's Lux con (or as the Brighton Hotel calls it, Starfurry!).

Ooh, that looks so cool! (And I hope you had a fab time at the convention -- I am very jealous!)
