Rambling about me attempting an art vending concept
Ok, so... I miss vending stuff, and by my stuff, I mean my weirdness... but I don't think I want to head back to furry cons, because I burn myself out BADLY with non-stop commission sketchbooks, badges, and things... and I can't keep attempting that. Plus, I really get social-exhaustion and social-anxiety when I'm not doing a job/role behind an artist table, and I don't have any fun at the cons.
So, my concept for doing more geeky shows (which I am doing ok at) is to make a new label, and I'm thinking of
Coin-op Cosplay
Taking existing game characters (primarily retro ones), and drawing them in cosplays of different and/or more modern roles and icons. This would give me plenty of room for visual jokes, puns, wordplay, and it would get me back into creating things.
I can make prints and stickers of more detailed concepts like the sketch here of MsPac cosplaying as HarleyQvinn, and pixelated or chibi variants for smaller buttons, magnets, or circle-stickers.
Whaddya think, folks?

@JulieSqveakaroo Video game characters dressed up as characters from later entries in their series might be an interesting theme.
