I was wonering if anyone would be interested in buying prints of my PianoSquall fanart?  Its one of the more popular pieces on my devart page.  I just wanted to know how many I should expect to sell so i know how many to print ^^;

They would sell for about 3.50-5.00 bucks depeding on the size I print them at.

Oh and if I sell enough to make up for the printing, I want to give some of the proceeds to Micheal also.

^^

I think it's a fantastic idea, Patches, seeing as how so many of us love your art! And $3.50 is very reasonable. ^_^;;

Oooh and welcome back. ^_^!!

Hmmm... personally, I'm more interested in buying original art... by that I mean art of characters the artists designed themselves.  But sometimes there are exceptions to that general rule - as when I see a non-original character in a unique scene (by the way, I chose "if I have money when i get out of the dealer's room!")

And yes, very glad to have you back.  I hope you checked "The (Not-So-Official) Birthday Thread".

It's Tekkoshocon. I think she meant "AT con" as in "at the con". ^_^ Hehe, it's very easy to get confused around here. I find myelf that way all the time. xD
