SDCC - Last Day

If you've seen me throughout the week, you most likely have caught me pimping Sketchbot to whoever will stop and listen. ;) This photo courtesy of John Stokes, from the excellent SpankyStokes.com


I finally met up with Jack from VinylPulse. We had met very briefly at NYCC (like, the last 5 minutes on the last day before he had to run off to the airport) and it was nice to have a more relaxed chat. I would later have dinner with him and his wife, along with Brent Nolasco, and Vince and Bicky from My Plastic Heart.

Great to see the giant MOD:1 at Supermodifiedstudios booth.


Tara McPherson had quite a bit of work available at her booth.


This week has flown by! Too tired after the long days to edit and post the plethora of pictures I've taken, however, I promise to upload the massive set to Flickr once I get back to Bklyn on Monday. Now off to endure the last day of SDCC...

SDCC - Sketchbot On Display @ ToyQube Booth #4837

Just back at the hotel and am already overwhelmed. San Diego Comic Con is HUGE! It's like 3 times the size of NYCC. (Incidentally, I was here a year ago for Siggraph, and that's a huge convention in itself) The big news (for me) is that Keith Poon from ToyQube had some extra space available and allowed me to put Sketchbot in his display case. I share a shelf with Hans "APW Gallery" Yim. Be sure to swing by booth #4837 to check out all the amazing work on view.

I got to talk extensively with Brian Flynn from Super-7, Matt Doughty from Onell Design, Shawn (Shawnimals) Smith, Kirby and Whitney from Rotofugi (I learned that my Sketchbot custom Plushform sold the other day!), and George, Ayleen and Matt from Toy Break. Sketchbot is being well received thus far.

Be sure to check out my exclusive SDCC Flickr set throughout the run of the convention for as many pictures that I can comfortably post each night before crashing. ;)

I'd also like to give a shout out to the following blogs that posted Sketchbot news items yesterday:

Jeremy Brautman from ToyCyte had nice things to say about my first design, as well as Brian Szabelski from Tomopop and a nice mini-interview I did with Andy from ToysREvil. I'll be meeting up with Jack from VinylPulse.com on Thursday.
