I sketch mall people and I also sketched convention attendees and fantasy fans when I had the chance. These sketchy fans at a Balticon look somewhat like Deadheads but I didn't observe a lot of crossover between fans and Deadheads. The bushy bearded guy on the left with a funky headpiece looks somewhat like a Dead fan, enough to attract my tech pen. But as I remember the Deadheads (featured here recently) were more into dancing, music, and drugs than the SF fans who read books obsessively from waking until collapsing. I crossed between the two because I could draw them and artists can go anywhere.
