I attended Huddersfield Manga Con this year to network and get involved in the art going on there. It was a small event but it was nice and interesting as always to be with people that share the same passions. There were people to network with there mostly to do with digital artwork and anime, i spoke to a few artists and took there cards discussing concept art and what they did for freelance work. One woman i found in particular did the drawing just below. She was a freelance artist who mostly experimented with cartoon characters and anime i took interest in her work mostly due to adventure time and dragonball z so i took her card for future work i may need on my concept art as i can't draw and need more contacts for artists.
See below her beautiful concept art on adventure time and her mix on it, she was selling them for £1 a postcard so i bought one.
There was also a wide variety of cosplay costumes which are always nice to see and a lot of stalls selling goods. I found a Margin Boo plus too :)
Overall it was a nice little event that was a good networking experience, i will definitely be going next year with my own business cards and making more connections through even small links.
