For my homework this week I will talk about the famous people I have met/know from Comic Con @rambo @missy
I have been lucky to meet several famous people, and have become incredible friends with some of them. Some of these people began as my idols. I work at comic-conventions all over the UK. (Hopefully I can get over to the US for one soon!) At the conventions I sell my artwork. My work was the reason a lot of the people noticed me, and they've helped me incredibly too!
I shall list a few....
Jeremy Bulloch (aka Boba Fett)
I feel like Jeremy deserves a little bit of info, since he has been a good friend and supported me greatly.
Me and Jeremy have known each other for 3-4 years now. We first met at a convention, he approached me about me work.
He took the time to sit with me, sign my work, and just have a chit chat...before long, His wife was with me too, and we were all gigglin' about silly things. Every year we do at the same events, we meet when we get a spare minute. We keep in contact on facebook too. Jeremy supports my work incredibly. He has even taken it to Florida, and sold it on his table for me!
Other people I became good friends with/still keep in contact with;
Kenny Baker (RIP you Grump!)
Spencer Wilding
Dave Prowse
Femi Taylor
Brian Muir
I don't want to be going on and on, haha, I've also met- Robert Englund, Peter Davison(who stole my flippin' sharpie!), Colin Baker, Sylvester McCoy, Dicky Beer, Pam Rose, Nathalie Cox, Chris Bunn....
The list goes on.... I'll be sure to share some stories about them all over time.
