To end my Thanksgiving and birthday weekend, I finally decided to go to this DeviantMEET in Vegas. It was held at The Venetian Hotel & Casino, particularly the Sands Expo Hall in the very back of the location. It has been a long time since I last went to The Venetian, so finding a parking spot was a bit of a challenge for me. And what made the challenge a bit more complicated was the fact that there's heavy traffic everywhere. As for getting to the DeviantMEET in time, I barely made it. Seeing that I have not been to the Sands Expo Hall before, I had to ask several people that worked the place to actually get there before the event started. When I went into the room where the DeviantMEET took place, I got a bit confused as to where I'm supposed to register/log in. 

After all that, I signed myself in, and began to check out other peoples' artwork. While I find all of the artwork that are posted on the walls really good, only a few of them had caught my interest. Unfortunately, I don't remember any of the names of certain art pieces. During the event, there were several tables scattered across the hall that had plenty of paper and colored pencils to draw on. As much as I wanted to draw something(I'm not lying, by the way), I was a bit more concerned of finding any of my watchers that actually came to this event. Also, I was trying to find a couple of the cosplayers I've met at the Anime Vegas conventions. I'll discuss the Anime Vegas stuff for another time. I believe the DeviantMEET also had the preview of the Cave Auto Desk Conference or something along those lines. However, I didn't have the money to go to that event. There were several computers to draw/sketch as well, but I prefer to draw the old-fashioned way. And even if I did wanted to do a quick sketch, there were too many people trying to draw something on the computers. I did meet a couple of familiar faces while I was at the event, so I wasn't lonely.

After hanging out at the DeviantMEET session for roughly 3 hours, the event was average for me. I was hoping the DeviantMEET would be a 3 day event, similar to an anime convention. The setting of this event was quite spacey compared to this year's Anime Vegas convention held at the Renaissance Hotel. :)
