BS Prep for Balticon
Hey all, the sketches are going to look a little different for the rest of the week while I get myself ready for Balticon this weekend.
Every time I go to a convention (which is infrequent) I’m asked for business cards which I haven’t bothered with. Usually, I just write down my info and draw a little sketch but I thought this time around I’d actually come prepared. I’ve gotten some work this way.
Maybe it’s time I take myself a little bit more seriously.
Each card (standard size) has my name and contact info at the bottom with the rest of the card being white space left for me to draw on. I plan on having a bunch already done (which is what I’ll be posting the rest of the week) but will keep a few blank ones for when the opportunity lends itself to taking the request of the person I’m giving it to.
What do you think?

I think the cards are great, but I think you should have some colored cards that include Frances and the Gang.

I agree with Maureen - you need at least one card style with Frances!!

Hmmm… the box full of Bassetville cards sitting in my closet makes me have to disagree. That isn’t saying I don’t need to do some promo material for Frances & Friends. Just probably not cards.
Anyway, these cards are for getting me illustration work, not promoting the cartoon. I’m going for the one-thing-to-one-person approach instead of the look-at-EVERYTHING-I-can-do one.

As a recipient of one of the cards, I’d say it’s a brilliant idea. I’m trying to figure out how to best frame mine…
