I want to start a small project for /mlp/ con 2021 (online). By using this donation to commission some pony artworks of the con's mascots (Contard, Conpone & Anonfilly) from mainland Chinese artists and showcase it on the day of the event for all anons to enjoy.

Depending on the funds received, I'll try to get as much high quality artwork as possible, main interests is to get some dakimakura artworks for the mascots and some arts from artists that also makes artwork merch for local cons in China.

🙋 Q&A:
[Q]: Why China/Chinese?
[A]: Personally I'm already in the process of experimenting and exploring on art commissions within Chinese brony community. I would like to take the opportunity of this con to further exploit on this. Besides the price is decent. 

[Q]: There's anons that can draw, why not them?
[A]: I wanted to try a unique activity instead of just getting more art, I like to spend and experiment. So I wanted this to be something like a virtual vendor booth, BUT instead of individual anons paying for a specific item, it will be a crowdfunded thing & every anon can have a piece of the pie (cough* totally not communism) and it's preorder.  

[Q]: So when will this be available? where will the results be posted? 
[A]: I'm planning to make a gallery site (if there's enough time, if there's not enough time I'll just dump it on google docs lmao) and submit it to the con organizers, as part of a virtual "gallery room/booth" thing during the con. Hopefully everything can be completed before the con starts. 

[Q]: Will you pocket in the money?
[A]: No. All of the donations specifically for this project WILL be spent on artworks for the con mascots one way or another. (source: trust me bro) If for some reason there's an abundance of funds in the hundreds (which is unlikely), I'll just spend it on more commissions further enlarging the collection. 


⚠️ Disclaimers:
• This is in no way affiliated with official /mlp/ con organizers or an official 4chan /mlp/ approved project. This is just a side project im planning to do for /mlp/ con 2021.

• The artworks are not for commercial use, but it'll be posted publicly so anons can use and print on merch themselves for personal use.
