vantid is absolutely one of my favorite artists in the fandom, and I could not pass up the chance to get an inked badge from her at AC this year!

This is a really unique representation of my character - I love the realism, and of course she wanted to draw "the pretty flowers" on Kijani's characteristic Hawaiian lei

And true story - somehow I managed to leave this badge in the hotel room of the Westin after the con, and I thought I had lost it forever, but housekeeping found it and turned it in to the convention's Lost and Found where it got identified and sent back to me for free. I am a very lucky lion, and thanks to Anthrocon for providing that fantastic service for your members.
