This seems like the best place to post this:

I'm an art student who's currently enrolled in a digitial photo book making class. My final project is coming up so what's better than a book full of cosplayers? I plan to do a pseudo pro set up with a white backdrop and hopefully some lighting equip if I can get out of class early to check it out. I can email the final edited photos and a digital copy of the book when I'm done. If you're interested in participating PM me or find me at my table in Artist Alley. Gonna have a sign up about this.

A sample of a book I've made already here

I'll need at least 30 different costumes so I'm hoping for a decent turn out ^^

i vote you bring a printer along and keep it in your hotel room and print on demand ^.~
but thats just what i would do if i was gonna sell prints

and yes bring everything you need to do commissions they sell better than prints do

also cauz i have to say it, any explicit materlas (anything 18+ or implying 18+) needs to be kept in a binder and you have to check id's. as well as any nudity must be covered (people usualy do this with sticky notes) and if any of the aa staff things something you have on disply is innaproprate we will ask you to slip it into that 18+ binder ^.~

Already planning on having 2 separate binders for explicit images, though I don't think I'll have any actual nudity... mainly just filtering the bl from the normal stuff. My bl stuff isn't cutesy enough for kids to look at.

what kinda of printer do you have?

Epson Stylus Photo 2200 at school, and a Canon iP6700D at home.

For line art, I'd pay 8-10 for a commission from you.
:)
Maybe 12-15 depending on the detail.

Umm.  I'm sorry.  But your art is gorgeous and you should be proud.

In all honesty, I would seriously pay $15 for a comission by you.  Not only that, but your colored stuff is spiffy too!  I'll have to keep an eye out for you ; D.  Can't wait to see you there.

EDIT:  For pricing of the coloring, none of that is worth under $20.

umm i have to agree with Pengin-san
your work is very very nice and i would say to stick to the 8-10 range for line art and up for colors and commissions
good luck well see you at fanime ^.~

Any suggestions on how many prints to bring? I'm working on some fetish girls like a maid, nurse, loli etc. along with some yaoi pieces for the girls so I figure they're probably all going to be selling at the same rate. I think I'll have 15 pieces all together, so maybe 5 of each size?

For on site commissions, I was going to just bring my trusty pen, but should I bring my copics to slap on some quick color as well?

I've been going to Fanime for 7 years, but never had enough money to spend on artwork so I'd just window shop. I'm totally clueless on prices as I'm getting ready to sell both at Fanime and Expo. My skills are pretty mediocre, especially when it comes to coloring so I know I can't sell for a whole lot.

I was thinking $5 for an 8x10 and $10 for a 13x19, plus a couple handmade books/shirts for $10-30. I'm printing at my university for 2$ and 4$ per print on quality paper. I don't want to lower my profit margin too much because the only way I can go is by earning back my hotel/travel costs (only reason I'm selling this year). Any opinions on the prices?

my lame site

Sorry it's not DA. I'm gonna work on getting mine updated eventually since everyone uses it...

There's a yellow tint to my pics on my school's pc, hopefully they don't look yellow to you. There's more non-yaoi stuff that I'm going to sell, not finished with em yet so they're not posted ;p
