Lost Contact: Anthrocon 2013

[talakestreal.livejournal.com]

I'm making this entry in the hopes of finding an artist.  On the last day of AC, my husband commissioned someone in Artist Alley. I was sitting in artist alley, so I never saw the artist.  Apparently this artist had some really nice traditional/digital pieces that were of armor, more than likely Warhammer 40K armor.  My husband is a bit of a scatterbrain, so he only mentioned this to me today, and I told him I'd see if I could find the artist. He doesn't remember a name, he doesn't remember anything except that it was the last day and the person was in Artist Alley.

I know it's a long shot, but maybe someone here might know who this person is. I know there's not many artists who do the really detailed Warhammer armor commissions, so hopefully there are not that many it could be.

Thanks for any help.

Edit: I'm told now that it wasn't Warhammer armor, it was more medieval armor. And the commission was traditional, not a mix of both.

I know this isnt the grreatest but do you possibly have the receipt? or recall where the artist was sitting at?

[talakestreal.livejournal.com]

No reciept, but if a person was facing the alley, the person was about halfway down on the far right side.

Would he recognize the art if he saw it in a DA or other gallery?

Might be good places to post too.

Could it have been Strype? He's the only artist I know of personally that does Warhammer stuff. http://www.furaffinity.net/user/strype (nsfw gallery of course)

Was thinking the same thing. He did go to AC this year but not sure if he had an Artists Alley table or not?

[talakestreal.livejournal.com]

No, it wasn't Strype.

My husband told me when he got home from work that it wasn't Warhammer stuff, it was closer to medieval armor type art.

Maybe it was winddragon and/or wanderlustdragon? They do nice traditionals and i'm pretty sure they've done armor too.

Can I ask what the commission was of? That might help. Anything your so could remember would be incredibly useful:

- Any idea what other artists were nearby?
- How much did they pay in general? Price points might help.
- Any details about the table, or who was there?
- Could he look through the dealer directory for AC and maybe find a name that he recalls?

As of now, everything is so vague, this is like looking for a needle in a haystack =\.

It was a commission of my husband's fursona (blue dragon with green hair, anthro, in armor).

I don't know who was nearby.

According to Rooth, the manager of Artist Alley, there was only one person there that day that had armor pieces in their displayed work, so tracking that person down should be easier than I thought. Yay for someone with a good memory!

I'm really hoping Rooth will be able to help me.
