So, I’m pretty sure I know the answer to this, but is Tom streaming today?
[13:25:52]
Dadrobit
No he is not. The Sunday sketches are either postponed, or he will choose them himself and do it offscreen.
[13:26:24]
Dadrobit
"There will not be a sketch stream on Sunday July 8, as I am away at a convention. The stream will either be postponed or fulfilled offline, depending on circumstances. "
[13:27:00]
Dadrobit
If he does them himself, I hope he hasn't already chosen from what was submitted before today, only just got mine in.
[13:42:05]
Xexanoth
i think he will only look at them when he actually gets around to doing them, so you should be fine
[14:21:12]
JamesBSquirrel3
Ooo boy, what a hot day.:ptv-sleepy: It amaze F1 British GP has so much modevations can happening. But enough some involves I just talk to myself. So I got prepare a Poll Sketch ready so in around more than 45 mins.:ptv-condescending:
[14:23:56]
JamesBSquirrel3
I wonder Tom's thinking about? I'm always thinking about TwoKinds Concert, can something brings, whatever it will work?:ptv-wondering:
[14:46:45]
WereKeidran
strolls into the chatroom
[14:46:57]
JamesBSquirrel3
Well no matter who can a TwoKinds Concert Plan? I don't mind and either you'll don't want to, <15 mins to go!
[14:48:32]
Bgrmystr2
how would there be a concert if there's no music?
[14:48:36]
Bgrmystr2
it's just a webcomic
[14:49:43]
JamesBSquirrel3
Well not really, a TwoKinds Concert Sketch, not live music, I meant drawn
[14:53:48]

The Keidran Dominion = TwoKinds in Space! Well I never thought anyone would do that actually and since we're all TK fans I thought I share it with y'all.
[15:01:24]
Bgrmystr2
meh. and you should prolly think outside the box if you thought noone would ever do that
[15:02:16]
TheGamePlayer
Lol cool mod
[15:03:35]
PalmettoPathfinder1
Well I wasn't sure if there were a lot of furries playing Stellaris. I mean I have a friend of mine who told me that the furry races in WoW are actually the least played races.
[15:04:13]
TheGamePlayer
I'll have to check it out
[15:04:18]
PalmettoPathfinder1
And I have heard talk that furries aren't well liked in the gaming community.
[15:04:47]
PalmettoPathfinder1
It seems to be an interesting mod GamePlayer.
[15:06:18]

I'm getting black screens there are visible options but no background art, constant server disconnect before even joining, and sometimes freezes up.

Bgrmystr2
James, we've already said this before. Tom is at a convention, there is no stream today.
[15:11:00]
Bgrmystr2
He's been at the con since thursday, and will continue to be there through today.
[15:11:38]
JamesBSquirrel3
Oh really Bgr?! Why wouldn't tell me, and others?
[15:11:48]
Bgrmystr2
he'll probably be driving home either tonight or monday
[15:11:49]
Bgrmystr2
and he DID
[15:11:51]
Bgrmystr2
several times
[15:12:03]
Bgrmystr2
and lots of people have been repeating it
[15:12:09]
Bgrmystr2
you're just not bothering to pay attention
[15:13:38]
JamesBSquirrel3
I was busy in other things watching like motorsports, now I didn't know why now he change?
[15:13:52]
Bgrmystr2
https://twitter.com/Katbox_Comics/status/1004462922574131201 This was posted June 6th, over a month ago, which tom retweeted.
[15:14:24]
Bgrmystr2
https://twitter.com/TwoKinds/status/1007437369535057926 tom posted this on the 14th of June, also last month
[15:14:39]
Bgrmystr2
and he's noted the convention probably dozens of times during the streams
[15:14:56]
Bgrmystr2
nevermind all the ppl repeating it
[15:15:29]
Bgrmystr2
we knew he was going to it before either of those were even posted.
[15:15:35]
Bgrmystr2
so it's entirely on you, bro.
[15:15:36]
MallardDuckAvia
When will there be a stream?
[15:15:40]
Bgrmystr2
not today.
[15:15:46]
MallardDuckAvia
I know.
[15:15:47]
JamesBSquirrel3
Oh Damnit to myself! I knew this was my Tweet meant, now I shouldn't know better
[15:15:54]
Bgrmystr2
then we don't know Mallard.
[15:15:58]
MallardDuckAvia
Ok
[15:15:59]
Bgrmystr2
noone does.
[15:16:31]
MallardDuckAvia
Frick. This is one of the last streams before I miss 2 weeks at Oshkosh
[15:16:42]
JamesBSquirrel3
So No this weeked I afraid, right?
[15:17:02]
Bgrmystr2
maybe monday night or tues night, he may just do the sketches offline.
[15:17:15]
Bgrmystr2
we'll find out when tom comes back
[15:17:53]
MallardDuckAvia
Of course he’s gone for the week before Oshkosh too. Dang
[15:26:03]
JamesBSquirrel3
Okay. I can however there possible - some of you know of YouTube. But not now, but later depends can be happening updates inform after the events of 5th + 8th July. So I learn once again as it is stands.
[15:28:02]
JamesBSquirrel3
It is Katbot events after all, no harm feelings (at least).:ptv-scratch:
[15:29:00]
JamesBSquirrel3
Well, I'm off to bed now, until my works tomorrow. See'ya!:ptv-ice:
[15:40:09]
ProsePro7
Tom said anything yet?
[15:42:12]
Mippy
About what?
[15:43:22]
ProsePro7
If the stream is today
[15:45:32]
HeresyArtStream
I think Tom is at Anthrocon, although it's curious that he had backer suggestions open this week.
[15:45:44]
HeresyArtStream
Just remember that it might have been an oversight!
[15:46:43]
ProsePro7
Well, Ill hang out for a while. If he's gotta work he's gotta work. Hope he has fun
[15:47:01]
Mippy
He is at Anthrocon. Most of us knew in advance. On Patreon he said that the stream may be postponed or he might do some sketches on his own.
[15:47:19]
Mippy
We might get a “Tom Pick Week”
[15:51:26]
ProsePro7
Yeah I was tracking that he might be there but the open suggetion thing made me think he was gonna do it. Oh well have fun Tom hope you pick mine if you do some,
[16:15:25]
Bgrmystr2
he's not gonna be back till late tonight or sometime tomorrow
[16:15:53]
Bgrmystr2
and he's already said he's gonna get suggestions anyway, it was not an oversight
[16:16:22]
Bgrmystr2
we'll either get a late stream or not get a stream and all the sketches will be done offline
[16:21:08]
SpazztasticKiwi
Be honest: how appealing is a hotdog from Walmart for lunch to you
[16:35:30]
Dadrobit
If it's a Hebrew National. I'm all for it.
[16:53:00]
Bgrmystr2
meh, I like ball park
[16:55:47]
SpazztasticKiwi
I don’t know the brand but I know they’re cooking them in a bag in boiling water
[17:25:50]
SpazztasticKiwi
They’re also giving us breakfast stuff to start selling
[17:47:26]
Char89TheCharizard
Hey. I assume, there's no sketch stream today?
[17:49:34]
Char89TheCharizard
Why do I feel like I just killed the chat... *leaves*
[17:50:13]
Bgrmystr2
yeh no stream today cuz tom's at a convention
[18:02:36]
Dadrobit
Sous Vide Hotdogs huh?
[18:04:12]
NightMeaty22
Hello

[19:53:38]
TorqueEmUp
Anyone else here besides manage to go to AnthroCon?
[19:53:50]
TorqueEmUp
besides me*
[19:54:08]
Bgrmystr2
nope, I don't have the money for that shit :u
[19:54:27]
TorqueEmUp
Neither did I. lol
[19:54:42]
Bgrmystr2
you went, didn't you?
[19:54:49]
Bgrmystr2
that's the difference.
[19:54:49]
TorqueEmUp
Yup
[19:54:53]
Bgrmystr2
so you had the money
[19:54:58]
TorqueEmUp
barely
[19:55:09]
Bgrmystr2
ppl like me do not :v
[19:55:18]
Bgrmystr2
and have no expectation of being able of doing so
[19:55:29]
TorqueEmUp
Also depends on distance
[19:55:49]
TorqueEmUp
I lived only like 4 hours away from pitsburgh
[19:56:05]
TorqueEmUp
live*
[19:56:52]
TorqueEmUp
Understandably living too far away would make going to these things too pricey.
[19:56:56]
Bgrmystr2
16 hr drive away for me
[19:57:11]
Bgrmystr2
though not having a car makes it.. a little bit longer
[19:57:20]
Bgrmystr2
$200 for a one-way flight :u
[19:57:37]
Bgrmystr2
and that's on the super cheap end
[19:57:47]
Bgrmystr2
probably going as luggage :v
[19:58:11]
TorqueEmUp
I just got lucky and it was close. A round trip cost like a little over $30 in gas.
[19:58:26]
Bgrmystr2
see, that's why
[19:58:28]
Bgrmystr2
:P
[19:58:44]
TorqueEmUp
and it's best to have friends to split the costs
[19:58:54]
TorqueEmUp
hotel, gas, parking, etc
[19:59:18]
Bgrmystr2
I'd have to shell probably $400+ just on travel expenses nevermind having to pay for the hotel or have money for the con itself.
[19:59:31]
TorqueEmUp
and I am cheap, I get a hotel about 20min from the Con.
[19:59:33]
Bgrmystr2
I don't really have anyone capable of going that far for a con
[20:00:08]
TorqueEmUp
Hotels right next to the cons are like $150-$250+ a night
[20:00:27]
TorqueEmUp
20min out of town, it's like $65 a night.
[20:00:36]
CrRAR
How was the general turnout?
[20:00:56]
TorqueEmUp
Like overall attendance for the whole thing?
[20:01:01]
TorqueEmUp
Or for Tom?
[20:01:06]
Bgrmystr2
not being able to drive kinda forces having a hotel next to it.
[20:01:15]
Bgrmystr2
:/
[20:01:16]
TorqueEmUp
Right
[20:01:41]
TorqueEmUp
Also I am sure if you fursuit/cosplay, a hotel connected to the convention center would be best. lol
[20:01:41]
Bgrmystr2
me going to anthrocon, including tickets, would probably end up being $1000 just for one person
[20:01:50]
TorqueEmUp
Yeouch
[20:02:01]
TorqueEmUp
As for attendance, they astimated 8k+ people
[20:02:05]
TorqueEmUp
estimated*
[20:02:07]
Bgrmystr2
but that's for any convention I have to go to outside of my state.. so
[20:02:13]
Bgrmystr2
that's actually fairly normal, Torque
[20:02:22]
Bgrmystr2
if you're not traveling by car and don't live close to it
[20:02:40]
Bgrmystr2
and that's cheap compared to going to cons where the flight alone can be upwards of $900+
[20:02:54]
TorqueEmUp
like over 1k+ people in the fursuit parade.
[20:03:33]
TorqueEmUp
Tom sold out of his Raine, Natani, and Kat prints, and I guess he had a few Flora ones at the start, but guess he didn't have many of those and sold them out fast.
[20:03:56]
TorqueEmUp
also sold out on his artbook, and another book or two.
[20:04:15]
Bgrmystr2
I wonder if there was a line for his table
[20:04:21]
Bgrmystr2
at the beginning of the first day
[20:04:59]
TorqueEmUp
From the people I knew there visiting from the discord, yeah he did/
[20:05:46]
Bgrmystr2
pity. I'd like to end up getting some of the stuff he sells at cnos, but I suck at mornings
[20:05:49]
Bgrmystr2
so I'm always late
[20:05:57]
Bgrmystr2
ons* even
[20:06:03]
Bgrmystr2
asjkfga cons** >.>
[20:06:06]
TorqueEmUp
Reese from the discord was on staff there, and went straight there, and asked Tom about sketch commisions, and ran back up to his room to get his notebook, came back down and aparently Tom was already completely booked up for sketches.
[20:06:25]
Bgrmystr2
ew reese :v
[20:06:50]
Bgrmystr2
interesting, he works on staff huh?
[20:06:50]
TorqueEmUp
*shrug*
[20:06:51]
Bgrmystr2
cool
[20:07:09]
TorqueEmUp
Yep, and he got a picture with Tom while he was in his fursuit.
[20:07:28]
Bgrmystr2
lol he has fursuit too? :o
[20:07:42]
CrRAR
Good con then for him, got to drive home muuuuch lighter.
[20:07:53]
CrRAR
:ok_hand:
[20:07:55]
TorqueEmUp
yup, but he didn't wear it much considering he was staff.
[20:08:01]
CrRAR
haha
[20:08:12]
CrRAR
The best way to hide in plain sight xD
[20:08:30]
Dadrobit
Completely sold out of his stuff? Tom's made some dosh off of this lol.
[20:08:46]
CrRAR
haha
[20:08:55]
CrRAR
:ctwokinds-adiracoin:
[20:09:12]
TorqueEmUp
Well didn't completely sell out of everything. But he sold a good chunk of stuff.
[20:09:23]
TorqueEmUp
All the prints like I had said, and Artbooks
[20:09:23]
Bgrmystr2
honestly, that's the story I hear every time Tom goes to a con
[20:09:28]
Bgrmystr2
so I dunno why this one's special lol
[20:09:30]
Dadrobit
First day?
[20:09:49]
Bgrmystr2
from what I was told, he sells most of his stuff every con he goes to
[20:09:58]
Bgrmystr2
:thinking:
[20:10:08]
TorqueEmUp
Nah, not first day. But he stopped taking sketch commisions within the first hour of the first day.
[20:10:26]
Bgrmystr2
yeah that's gonna be a given
[20:10:32]
Bgrmystr2
cuz everyone wants their own sketch lol
[20:10:32]
TorqueEmUp
Yeah, well I rarely hear about his trips to other cons.
[20:10:41]
TorqueEmUp
since he goes to so few
[20:10:45]
Bgrmystr2
you should ask more questions then
[20:10:48]
Bgrmystr2
:)
[20:11:42]
TorqueEmUp
I know during the first day, the guy like almost never sat down, his table always had somebody there.
[20:13:20]
TorqueEmUp
He did recognize me right off the bat since I had my name from here on my badge.
[20:13:44]
Bgrmystr2
oh did you? lolo
[20:13:50]
TorqueEmUp
Whether that's a good or bad thing, who knows. lol
[20:14:07]
TorqueEmUp
Well nobody there had their real name on their con badges
[20:14:11]
Bgrmystr2
is the badge text big enough to read from far away? :o
[20:14:29]
Bgrmystr2
lol everyone's afraid of being themselves
[20:14:33]
Bgrmystr2
sounds about right
[20:14:39]
TorqueEmUp
No, as soon as I walked up to buy some stuff, he noticed it right then.
[20:14:49]
TorqueEmUp
so
[20:14:51]
TorqueEmUp
*shrug
[20:14:52]
Bgrmystr2
Ah I see
[20:15:56]
TorqueEmUp
Bought all 4 of the paperbacks, a print copy of Pixie Panic, and one of each of the prints he still had left. (Kat, Natani, and Raine)
[20:16:18]
Bgrmystr2
was he selling any hardbacks?
[20:16:38]
TorqueEmUp
Yup, but I was scraping by at this con, so paperback it was. lol
[20:17:02]
CrRAR
haha
[20:17:15]
Bgrmystr2
I see
[20:17:25]
TorqueEmUp
also free poster, and Flora bookmark
[20:17:39]
Dadrobit
Hopefully he's pricing aggressively.
[20:17:40]
Bgrmystr2
how much was like... everything? :thinking:
[20:18:04]
TorqueEmUp
Paperbacks were $15 each, prints were $5 each
[20:18:14]
TorqueEmUp
I think Pixie Panic was $10
[20:18:26]
TorqueEmUp
Artbook was $30
[20:18:33]
Bgrmystr2
guessing the hardbacks would be like $20 or so?
[20:18:48]
Dadrobit
Dude could easily double his prices tb
[20:18:50]
Dadrobit
tbh
[20:19:01]
Bgrmystr2
that'd be kind of a lot, dadro
[20:19:01]
CrRAR
Ooo, he still does the Flora bookmarks? Are they the ones where she's, like, laminated?
[20:19:03]
TorqueEmUp
Probably more, probably whatever they are on his store page.
[20:19:19]
Dadrobit
Not really, prints often go for $15 each alone
[20:19:27]
TorqueEmUp
Everything was priced exactly what it was on his store page.
[20:19:54]
Dadrobit
Poor guy is shorting himself.
[20:19:57]
TorqueEmUp
Yeah, he could have easily asked for double on those prints
[20:19:57]
Bgrmystr2
$40 for a book is a lot, dude
[20:20:02]
CrRAR
lol
[20:20:08]
Dadrobit
It's a con, everything is meant to be expensive
[20:20:20]
TorqueEmUp
Not really
[20:20:21]
Dadrobit
And furrys are (pardon the pun) cash cows
[20:20:33]
Bgrmystr2
way to support price gouging, dadro xD
[20:20:46]
CrRAR
Mayyybe not double, but like an extra 5 bucks wouldn't hurt.
[20:20:50]
Dadrobit
Gotta keep the lights on
[20:20:55]
TorqueEmUp
I saw the Sabrina Online Hardbacks at a book vendor, and I wish I had the money for them, but I was flat broke by then, those were $25 each.
[20:21:07]
CrRAR
mmm
[20:21:38]
CrRAR
High volume vs high margin
[20:21:41]
CrRAR
FIGHT
[20:22:01]
TorqueEmUp
But yeah, like practically ALL the other vendors were charging $10 for their prints, and were lower quality than Tom's
[20:22:01]
Dadrobit
brb
[20:22:04]
CrRAR
kk
[20:22:17]
SpazztasticKiwi
I wish he had pins
[20:22:30]
CrRAR
:ptv-excited:
[20:22:35]
SpazztasticKiwi
I’d buy a Nibbly pin in a heartbeat
[20:22:37]
TorqueEmUp
Not lower quality art wise, just print, and medium.
[20:23:04]
TorqueEmUp
Yeah I probably would too.
[20:23:12]
TorqueEmUp
But I want plushies more
[20:23:14]
CrRAR
mmm, I wonder if he orders in enough quantity to keep margin low at the quality he attains.
[20:23:32]
CrRAR
Plushies! :ctwokinds-sleepoverA:
[20:23:33]
SpazztasticKiwi
Ah yes a Nibbly plush
[20:23:43]
TorqueEmUp
He did have to round the corners on the Natani prints by hand, because the printer send them to him unrounded.
[20:23:49]
SpazztasticKiwi
Because there’s not enough merch stuff on my bed already
[20:23:54]
Bgrmystr2
if he's selling out at cons, he's not getting enough of quantity of items for a convention.
[20:24:06]
Bgrmystr2
that's basic
[20:24:20]
TorqueEmUp
just had one of those tools that rounds edges of paper.
[20:24:27]
CrRAR
Well, only as much as he can pack in his car.
[20:24:46]
SpazztasticKiwi
I did see that picture of him and a few others from that Katbox tweet
[20:24:50]
Bgrmystr2
well, he's not alone in his book production, Cr
[20:24:50]
CrRAR
...or van... or 2K-mobile
[20:24:54]
TorqueEmUp
Indeed, as he drove out to this one. I don't know what he does for San Diego Comic Con
[20:25:02]
SpazztasticKiwi
Want to know who that chick was with all the pink
[20:25:09]
Bgrmystr2
he's using the keenspot shop to sell books
[20:25:13]
CrRAR
ooo
[20:25:18]
CrRAR
yeah
[20:25:18]
TorqueEmUp
That sounds like he has to pay some good money to get his product all the way out to Cali
[20:25:33]
CrRAR
Where is Keenspot located?
[20:25:48]
SpazztasticKiwi
Google it
[20:25:51]
CrRAR
Maybe they can drop ship things to comic-con?
[20:25:54]
TorqueEmUp
Hmm, you know I didn't even bother to think about that
[20:25:55]
SpazztasticKiwi
May have more than one hub
[20:26:18]

"Apple Valley, CA"
[20:26:20]
TorqueEmUp
Yeah, I am sure he just has Keenspot ship them to the conventions.
[20:26:44]
SpazztasticKiwi
And then they have fun taking them out of alllll the boxes and organizing it
[20:27:08]
TorqueEmUp
because he did say he had to hold back shipments of books from people that ordered them online so he could have stuff to sell at cons.
[20:27:31]
TorqueEmUp
Wish he had his T-Shirts there, i'd have bought one.
[20:27:47]
TorqueEmUp
But probably too limited of booth space for that
[20:27:59]
CrRAR
Yeh, Apple Valley is a little over 2hrs from SDCC.
[20:28:01]
TorqueEmUp
He was pretty filled up with just the books and such.
[20:28:20]
CrRAR
mmm
[20:28:52]
CrRAR
Shirts are probably 3rd party printed-on-demand maybe?
[20:29:08]
CrRAR
Soft goods supply is always weird in low quantities.
[20:29:29]
CrRAR
That's why plushies are tough to get off the ground.
[20:29:54]
CrRAR
Need a huge order to make it worthwhile for the designer.
[20:30:05]
TorqueEmUp
Yeah, like he said he has interest in selling plushies. Though from what someone asked him at this con, if he does plushies, Flora would probably get one before nibbly.
[20:30:16]
TorqueEmUp
But likes the idea of a Nibbly plush
[20:30:34]
SpazztasticKiwi
Less stuffing involved with a Flora plush than a Nib plush
[20:30:52]
SpazztasticKiwi
Nibbly keychains
[20:31:29]
CrRAR
Yeah like those metal enamel-filled ones from the 80's!
[20:32:10]
TorqueEmUp
enamel-pins seem to be pretty big thing at con
[20:32:13]
TorqueEmUp
cons*
[20:32:21]
SpazztasticKiwi
I have a Septiceye Sam keychain. Love the thing to death. A Nibs one - just a little sitting position Nibs - too cute
[20:32:38]
SpazztasticKiwi
Maybe with an acorn
[20:32:48]
TorqueEmUp
Keychains I saw very little of, unless it was at a weeb stall. :P
[20:33:02]
TorqueEmUp
weeb vendor*
[20:33:03]
CrRAR
yeah, literally just the one used for the "Squirrely Support" on patreon would do.
[20:33:08]
Bgrmystr2
Kiwi, you said chick with all the pink. I don't see anything like that. What are you looking at?
[20:33:15]
CrRAR
Just replace the heart with an acorn xD
[20:34:03]
TorqueEmUp
enamel-pins are quite pricey for what they are though
[20:34:28]
TorqueEmUp
like $10 everywhere at the con
[20:34:32]
SpazztasticKiwi
The pic with like half of Tom in it. The pink behind him
[20:34:37]
TorqueEmUp
there was a con exclusive one for AC this year.
[20:35:32]
Bgrmystr2
oh, lesse
[20:36:53]
TorqueEmUp
Also here is Resse in his fursuit with Tom. This was taken yesterday. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/165725395348357120/465240087555211294/IMG_20180707_145233.jpg

Kiwi, on the top right of that image is a poster for Las Lindas http://laslindas.katbox.net/
[20:37:12]
Bgrmystr2
The one below was a poster for Rascals http://rascals.katbox.net/
[20:37:56]
Bgrmystr2
ohshit, I recognise the artist at the very end of that image, Torque
[20:39:24]
TorqueEmUp
Yeah other Katbox comic artists were there.
[20:40:21]
TorqueEmUp
Uberquest's Skidd and Phuufy were there to the left of Tom.
[20:40:42]
Bgrmystr2
I'm not talking about that
[20:40:47]
Bgrmystr2
I'm talking about the one wayyy at the end
[20:40:50]
Bgrmystr2
with the two dakis
[20:41:08]
Bgrmystr2
that's one of the artists here on picarto that has a super 80's anime artstyle
[20:41:16]
Bgrmystr2
it's really cool
[20:41:37]
TorqueEmUp
Yeah, I think they were all generally on the same area on purpose. :P

[20:43:27]
CrRAR
I'm sure if they book early enough they kind of get to coordinate the table arrangements.
[20:43:49]
CrRAR
esp if they fall under an umbrella like Katbox or Keenspot.
[20:44:18]
Bgrmystr2
it's katbox, they're gonna get all their tables together cuz they're all basically one entity
[20:44:51]
TorqueEmUp
Indeed
[20:45:04]
CrRAR
mmm
[20:45:56]
TorqueEmUp
Also you can barely make out in that picture with Tom and Reese, you can kinda see Tom's phone background.
[20:46:06]
TorqueEmUp
:P
[20:46:26]
Bgrmystr2
Found them
[20:46:42]
Bgrmystr2
https://picarto.tv/NaiChanTV this was the artist at the end of the image you posted from discord, w/ the two dakis
[20:46:46]
Bgrmystr2
they're super good
[20:47:03]
TorqueEmUp
Also the sketch he was working on is right there on the table.
[20:47:16]
Bgrmystr2
Nai was actually super excite to be going to a con w/ tom and being able to meet him
[20:48:13]
TorqueEmUp
Oh wait that isn't his background, I believe he had that up as a reference for that sketch, as that isn't the picture I saw, when I bought stuff from him. lol
[20:49:00]
Dadrobit
Back with Ramen and Fish
[20:50:47]
SpazztasticKiwi
And with that, I’m reminded of the fact I was getting up to make food before I got distracted
[20:50:52]
TorqueEmUp
Oh nice, where is she from? since her offline picture clearly says "Going to America!"
[20:52:35]
TorqueEmUp
But anway, I hope Tom does choose all the suggestions this week and does them offline.
[20:53:46]
Bgrmystr2
Not quite sure, actually
[20:54:41]
Bgrmystr2
Huh, DA says New Zealand

[20:58:45]
SpazztasticKiwi

[20:59:13]
qwe304

TorqueEmUp
Nice
[20:59:23]
TorqueEmUp
Also Fluff was there
[20:59:39]
TorqueEmUp

[20:59:39]
Bgrmystr2
well yeah
[20:59:41]
Bgrmystr2
he was with Rei
[20:59:47]
CrRAR
Rose bein' positive FTW
[20:59:55]
CrRAR
still bittersweet tho
[20:59:58]
Bgrmystr2
don't see any images of him and rei on the twitter feeds lol
[21:00:07]
Bgrmystr2
would be nice
[21:00:26]
TorqueEmUp
Well they weren't with Katbox, they were a few rows away in their own little spot
[21:00:37]
Bgrmystr2
yeah
[21:00:46]
Bgrmystr2
they too good :U
[21:00:55]
SpazztasticKiwi
I like my elbow room too but yeesh
[21:01:18]
qwe304
wonder when(if) hes gona post the con sketches
[21:01:19]
TorqueEmUp
I should have bought his Flora print, but I will wait till he does a picture of Natani.
[21:01:33]
Bgrmystr2
lol how do you mean, kiwi?
[21:01:51]
SpazztasticKiwi
They were separated. It’s just a kid
[21:01:57]
qwe304
was the flora pring unique>
[21:02:04]
Bgrmystr2
ah
[21:02:04]
qwe304
*print
[21:02:10]
TorqueEmUp
Which he said he has interest in doing. So If Fluff does a Natani pic, I will probably buy that immediatly the next time I see him at a con.
[21:03:26]
TorqueEmUp
This was the Flora print he had. https://d.facdn.net/art/fluff-kevlar/1468010326/1468010011.fluff-kevlar_florapinupweb.jpg
[21:03:41]
qwe304
ah i remember that one
[21:03:48]
qwe304
its a nice peice
[21:03:53]
Bgrmystr2
ah that one yeah
[21:03:53]
TorqueEmUp
Aparently he gave Tom a big version of that print.
[21:04:03]
TorqueEmUp
Not sure when
[21:04:11]
CrRAR
xD
[21:04:14]
Bgrmystr2
well yeah fluff gets super big prints of his work
[21:04:24]
CrRAR
That's great.
[21:04:27]
Bgrmystr2
you can get like huge 2x3 foot posters
[21:04:31]
qwe304
fluff is the only one that ife seen that is able to draw toms characters without them looking totally weird (IMO)
[21:04:35]
SpazztasticKiwi
He does good eyes
[21:04:46]
Bgrmystr2
I dunno, they still seem slightly weird imo, qwe
[21:04:51]
Bgrmystr2
but it's a different artstyle
[21:04:53]
Dadrobit
0.o I'm getting a 403 error on that link
[21:04:56]
Bgrmystr2
so that's natural
[21:05:04]
TorqueEmUp
I want to see him do Natani. lol
[21:05:13]
CrRAR
he took some liberties with those stripes tho lol
[21:05:22]
qwe304
yeah, nobodys perfect, but fluf is the best ive seen in that aspect
[21:05:34]
Dadrobit
Anyone mind throwing me an imgur of that link?
[21:05:51]
Bgrmystr2
imgur doesn't play well with me, so prolly someone else
[21:05:56]
Bgrmystr2
it should be on his furaffinity though

[21:06:57]
Bgrmystr2
dunno why you're getting 403 errors dadro
[21:07:01]
Dadrobit
That's an older piece from FK no?
[21:07:05]
qwe304
yes
[21:07:09]
qwe304
not new
[21:07:17]
qwe304
unsure how old exactally tho
[21:07:17]
Bgrmystr2
it's not new but I wouldn't called it 'old'
[21:07:19]
Dadrobit
Me neither, tried opening it 3 times.
[21:07:47]
qwe304
dang, google can recognise flora
[21:08:05]
qwe304
i did a reverse search to find the original piece and google knew what it was

[21:08:41]
Bgrmystr2
he posted it a year ago
[21:08:41]
CrRAR
that is pretty wild though
[21:08:46]
Bgrmystr2
so it's not quite old
[21:08:49]
qwe304
tom needs more merch
[21:09:02]
Bgrmystr2
since he usually posts those pretty quickly after he does them
[21:11:50]
Dadrobit
Found his FA, posted 2 years ago.
[21:13:38]
Dadrobit
Is there a way to view adult content on Tumblr without an account
[21:13:39]
Dadrobit
?
[21:13:45]
Bgrmystr2
dunno, prolly not
[21:13:54]
Bgrmystr2
tumblr's pretty prude about non-account ppl
[21:14:00]
Dadrobit
Then it shall forever be a mystery
[21:14:17]
Bgrmystr2
why, what are you trying to find out..?
[21:14:31]
Dadrobit
Fluff's Tumblr
[21:15:05]
Bgrmystr2
yeah I mean, what about it? If he has adult works on it?
[21:15:18]
Bgrmystr2
cuz he does, and I can see them
[21:15:29]
Dadrobit
Just saying, whatever is there, is beyond my reach
[21:15:42]
Bgrmystr2
well, it's not like making an acct is hard :u
[21:16:13]

It's more of a moral issue.

it's not like I use it for anything besides getting artwork beind their prudewall.
[21:16:51]
Bgrmystr2
I don't pay anything so it's not a big deal
[21:17:09]
CrRAR
lol @ prudewall
[21:17:19]
Bgrmystr2
that's literally what it is
[21:17:27]
Bgrmystr2
xD
[21:17:35]
CrRAR
I wonder how long before we'll hear that's been added to a dictionary as an official word.
[21:17:52]
CrRAR
tru tru
[21:18:02]
Bgrmystr2
It's both an easy and acceptable way to hide adult content from the front face of the site.
[21:18:20]
Bgrmystr2
not that other websites know this is possible..
[21:18:21]
TorqueEmUp
Indeed, Tom does need more merch
[21:18:30]
Bgrmystr2
yeh agree w/ that one Torque
[21:18:36]
CrRAR
When they talked about building a wall... who knew it'd ever be of the prude variety. xD
[21:18:42]
Bgrmystr2
xD
[21:18:48]
TorqueEmUp
When stand near his booth looking at others I did hear quite a few "Ooo TwoKinds!"
[21:18:57]
CrRAR
lol
[21:19:08]
TorqueEmUp
looking at other booths I mean
[21:19:33]
CrRAR
yeah he was kinda sandwich'd in there.
[21:20:17]
SpazztasticKiwi
My con method: if you’re lost, just walk around. You’re bound to run into em eventually
[21:21:10]
CrRAR
mmm, the random perusal method.
[21:21:26]
TorqueEmUp
Tom was in a very easily found spot.
[21:21:30]
TorqueEmUp
against a wall
[21:21:41]
CrRAR
haha
[21:21:48]
SpazztasticKiwi
Just look for the guy with a TK shirt
[21:21:54]
CrRAR
clever
[21:22:01]
TorqueEmUp
it could have only been easier if he wasn't sandwiched in.
[21:22:06]
SpazztasticKiwi
Not hard, but you better believe I’m the one that’s miss him
[21:22:16]
SpazztasticKiwi
*that’ll
[21:22:36]
Bgrmystr2
you aren't the only one, kiwi. I know a few others like that too
[21:22:51]
TorqueEmUp
Yeah I missed Fluff until like my second walkthrough of the Dealer Den
[21:23:14]
TorqueEmUp
Then I was like, hey I recognize the art style, then noticed the name. :P
[21:23:20]
SpazztasticKiwi
I wear the shirt of the person I’m there to see if I can
[21:23:46]
SpazztasticKiwi
That way, they may help me find them by saying “hey nice shirt”
[21:23:54]

wb
[22:18:23]
TorqueEmUp
and yeah, I forgot to answer about the bookmark. Yeah it was the one where it looks Flora got laminated.
[22:26:04]
CrRAR
Oh cool, those are special printed on transparent plastic right?
[22:26:59]
TorqueEmUp
nah
[22:27:05]
TorqueEmUp
well
[22:27:27]
TorqueEmUp
the bookmark itself isn't plastic
[22:27:58]
TorqueEmUp
but the part with flora is almost plastic like.
[22:28:09]
CrRAR
Isee.
[22:28:18]
TorqueEmUp
like extremely thin
[22:28:33]
CrRAR
Traditional cardboard more like?
[22:28:42]
TorqueEmUp
yeah
[22:28:50]
CrRAR
I just remember Tom doing the art and focusing specifically on making sure the outlines 100% matched up.
[22:28:51]
TorqueEmUp
with Flora looking glossy
[22:29:13]
CrRAR
Oh yeah, like the Art Book?
[22:29:25]
TorqueEmUp
but everything around flora is matte, and is a different texture.
[22:29:34]
TorqueEmUp
His prints are the same way
[22:30:33]
CrRAR
Mmm, that effect is georgeous. Works so well to up the feel of his printed stuff.
[22:30:36]
TorqueEmUp
I am piss poor at describing stuff. lol
[22:30:51]
CrRAR
lol
[22:32:06]
TorqueEmUp
but yeah, it's actually more like Flora was printed on a thin vinyl and placed on the cardboard.
[22:32:31]
TorqueEmUp
same with the prints of each character
[22:32:58]
TorqueEmUp
It looks really good in person
[22:33:30]
CrRAR
Yeah, like a raised glossy layer?
[22:33:41]
TorqueEmUp
yup
[22:33:51]
TorqueEmUp
very slightly
[22:37:36]
CrRAR
niiiice
[22:38:27]
TorqueEmUp
Sometime going to get frames for the prints.
[22:39:24]
CrRAR
Yeah I gotta do that at some point for the one's I've collected over the years.
[22:40:16]
TorqueEmUp
at least get some cheapo walmart frames just so I can start decorting my plain white walls of this apartment. lol
[22:40:24]
TorqueEmUp
decorating*
[22:41:30]
CrRAR
I would just make sure to get something uv protective to shield from fading.
[22:41:44]
CrRAR
One piece of future merch that would be awesome to see is, when most/all books are released is like a slip-box for them to fit in. lol
[22:41:50]
TorqueEmUp
Also, unless Tom is going to re-print the books, or use price stickers, he can't exactly jack up the prices at cones. the book prices are print right on the back in big text.
[22:42:06]
TorqueEmUp
at cons*
[22:42:07]
CrRAR
true
[22:42:24]
TorqueEmUp
at least on the Paperbacks they are
[22:42:36]
TorqueEmUp
and $15 for a book is already pretty high by book standards.
[22:42:59]
TorqueEmUp
at least of these sizes, granted they are all really well full color pages.
[22:43:09]
TorqueEmUp
well done*
[22:44:08]
CrRAR
Yeah I just checked on the Art Book the price is printed as well.
[22:45:07]
TorqueEmUp
slapping higher price stickers over existing prices probably wouldn't go over to well with people.
[22:46:13]
CrRAR
Haha, yeah plus Tom went through the effort of having it put on there to avoid destructive stickers.
[22:46:27]
CrRAR
:nauseated_face:
[22:46:30]
TorqueEmUp
Indeed
[22:47:26]
TorqueEmUp
I'll probably buy the hardbacks at some point or another. Because I am so afraid to damage the paperbacks
[22:47:41]
TorqueEmUp
But I still wanted them anyway. lol
[22:48:24]
CrRAR
I still baby the hardbacks though xD
[22:49:01]
Dadrobit
Okay, I'm gonna head out for a bit.
[22:49:18]
CrRAR
Seeya robit!
[22:49:21]
Dadrobit
Convinced my bro to help me make a bunch of noise and break a bunch of laws.
[22:49:39]
Dadrobit
So, I'll probably be back in a few hours :)
[22:49:45]

Hahaha

[22:50:46]
CrRAR
Does the noise part involve fireworks?
[22:51:27]
CrRAR
:thinking:
[22:51:45]
Dadrobit
Nah, when my bro gets here, we're gonna sneak off into the nearby-ish mountains with my hand recorder and a foghorn.
[22:52:20]
Dadrobit
I want to get a real good recording of natural reverb on a distant horn.
[22:52:50]
Dadrobit
