wanted to add a few more links to other artists that i like.
in relation to my previous post of Doujin groups.
honestly, i think there are still many groups that will be selling their stuff on the days of AFA. a hundred tables set up just for fan art... i hope to have enough time to look at the stuff.
really hope to not be overwhelmed cause i can already foresee that it will attract alot of buzz this year.
KotatsuCats has cool illustrations that are in print form.
quite a number of artists do fanart from video games, sadly i don't play that many but i really like the art style and would encourage others who do play the games and are fans to support the art!
The artists at KAMCAO have wide range of merch and i like their art styles too! Previously got the Gangsta phone wipers from them!
have bought a few prints from DatWorks the last time as well. really like the Psycho Pass ones.
another artist that has pretty art is Mints , though i don't think i've bought anything yet i do like the art style. the color palette she uses for each art is really nice. i think her group name is Citru5
Dark's art is really cute too, though i don't play TouRanbu the fanbook is so cute
her art is cute too, and damn talented... might want to check out the prints that she has...
since i started watching Himouto! Umaru-chan i may get some merch from the show.
Aoi has cute Umaru-chan merch
Parfait sugar has gintama merch and i got a justaway keychain previously!
additional: jellyfishcakes is based overseas but her art is so gorgeous too! really like the gravity falls and adventure time jake ones.
there are probably a whole lot more of artists that i'm missing out since all i could get were links on facebook so i will probably just be surprised when i go check out AFA anyways
i think each year will come with a new slew of fan merch and i do say i'm looking forward to what comes next year just because i read quite a number of the manga.
maybe the ones i'm looking forward to are
Bungo Stray Dogs (ongoing manga series 8 vol - to be made into anime)
Ajin (ongoing manga series 7vol - to be made into 3 part animated movie)
A silent voice (completed series 7 vol to be made into anime)
Boku Dake ga Inai Machi (ongoing manga series 6 vol - to be made into anime)
should really encourage more people to read psychological manga, it's really good.
i hope the animes and movie anime have good reception from the audience.
the list of animes that are slated to start next January make me happy.
will try to update again with AFA haul the next time because i will be super busy with work the next week.
