It seems like forever since I’ve been to a new con. When I found out the exhibitor lineup of this year’s DesignerCon 2018 I knew I had to make it this year. With Mondo deciding to not hold a convention this year I guess their schedule opened up and they decided to bring some AAA artists with them to Anaheim. After I took a look at the rest of the lineup I am pumped to be attending. That I got to work in a trip to Disneyland is icing on the cake. Below are just 1% of the awesome exhibitors with booths I think you should check out.

The work of Rob Ramirez’s custom work caught my eye right away when looking for exhibitors to feature. I’m new to his work but I will definitely be checking out his booth to see if I can get anything like his Luke Chueh’s Possessed custom above.

Exclusives: Glow in the dark majestic beast pins

Booth Number: 2541

7Sketches

Enamel pins are something that I can never get enough of. I love the levels of artistry that people can reach with little pieces of metal. Some clever stuff can be found at the 7 Sketches booth.

Exclusives: Cup Kitty, Panda Stitch, & Aloha Totoro

Booth: 1128

Mighty Jaxx

Jason Freeney’s collaborations with Mighty Jaxx have been getting me excited for a good half decade or so. I’ve never come across their booth at a convention before so I can’t wait to check them out and maybe finally pull the trigger on one of his awesome anatomic creations.

Exclusives: 4D XXRAY Joker (Glow in the Dark) by Jason Freeny

Booth: 812

Happy Pantry

Nothing better than when a punny pin works like Happy Pantry’s Peary Potter enamel pin. This is a must by for me.

Exclusives: Peary Potter Lapel Pin

Booth: 815

Mondo

I talked them up so much I couldn’t not include the Austin, TX pop culture company. They willd be bringing a little bit of everything including this The Shining print by JC Richards. They’ll also have tiki mugs!

Exclusives: GAME OF DEATH (Variant 1) poster by Gabz

Booth: 2219

Scott C

For Sale: Sleepy The Goodnight Buddy picture book

Booth: 2016
