TigerCatzen, I'd love to see your work! I have a love for leatherwork!

I'm a sucker for buttons.

Buttons ftw

Would You Buy My Plushies?

We're thinking of charging between 5-10$ for them. I have 2 done so far but we're making more.

Also...

Would You Buy My Wood Burns?

They had wood burns for OUTRAGEOUS prices last year. We'll be charging about 20$ each. Here are a few examples (this will take you to my DeviantArt):

Gaara: http://kurimei.deviantart.com/art/Presiding-Kazekage-130021085
Naruto and Sasuke (Valley of the End): http://kurimei.deviantart.com/art/In-the-End-130020421
Riku and Sora: http://kurimei.deviantart.com/art/Pull-Him-From-the-Darkness-126429298

We're taking commissions so if you know you want something in particular, check my DA journal and see the details of the wood and plushies. Is there something in particular you want? Let us know! We will gladly make it for you! We sell them on eBay, too, as well as will be getting a table at Animazement 13.

Thanks!

I thought the prices were reasonable once you take in account of the amazing detail work and staining, it obviously took a while to do.

But anyway, I love your plushies and burnings <3 I'd definitely buy them.

[Kiba]

Yay! That's amazing to me! (member of above group) Is there anything in particular that you'd be looking for? *takes commissions*

[Reishi]

Would you buy a necklace with a sort of pendant thing (the shape of one of those flattened out coins) with a small chibi on the necklace? I'd show you what they'd look like, but I haven't made a complete one yet...

Also, would you buy a purse with a clear plastic pocket for artwork? The purse would come with art in it, but you could also put your own art in it.

I'm not sure about the prices, but I was guessing the necklace would go for about $5, then $3 on Sunday.
What do you all think?

i like both ideas! i'd probably maybe buy both, depending on my cash money situtaion.

but now i have a question...

Would anyone buy cosplay jewelry?

i can make just about anything in the jewelry world [excluding rings, though i will work on that] and have -no- idea what to make, so i'd take requests. as long as you send me a picture of the item, i could make it! <3

It might not be smart to tell everyone how much your stuff is going to go down in price for Sunday.. xD;;

But the purse idea sounds cute! You could so something like if they by the purse they can get one of your prints with a discounted price. ^^

[Kiba]

Well I'm still selling plushies and wood burns but now I'm also selling something called 'Color-Me-Bishie'. Its a 25 page coloring book with colored cover art for 7$ full of hot anime boys. Some fanart, some OCs and ranges from big-eyed ukes to tall, dark, and seme.

There is also a booster pack of yaoi pictures (since everyone doesn't like yaoi) of 15 pictures for 5$. Plus colored cover art. You don't have to buy the origial to buy the yaoi pack.

They are both collaborations with myself and a friend. We're trying to get a balcony table and will be open all weeeeekeeeeendddd. :]

[aderyn]

I got some new stuff. I've decided to not make aprons, but to make sock plushies. Would you buy them at AZ?

[PuppetQueen]

*falls over from Ama's cuteness*

I would definitely buy those :3 they're adorable!

[aderyn]

Thanks, Puppet. I've got some Totoro phone straps too. I'll post pics later.

*Edit*

Here's my latest addition. :3 What do you think?

[Marzipan]

Put something like a quarter next to them to show size please Aderyn. They're super cute, but I want to see how big/small they are.

Sure thing! I totally forgot about that concept when I was taking pictures. I guess I got too excited. :3 Well, here's one of them matched up against a quarter:



So, they're slightly bigger than a quarter, but they are very light weight. They're made of felt and stuffing. I hope this gave you a better perspective of it. :3

[KateSkirmish]

anyway, id love love love feedback on these. thanks guys!!

[aderyn]

@Kate: I suck at Rubik's cubes. In fact, I hate them with a burning passion. But that, that is freaking amazing. I would totally buy it. No joke. However, I''m not too far into Black Butler, but if you were making other cubes from something else, I'd get it. I'd just never mess with it

[KateSkirmish]

@aderyn- ha ha thanks. thats a huge compliment. ill probably do some other series, but im not sure what yet. its just a matter of sitting down to draw six pictures to make a whole cube. ^^

[Axiroth]

To Kate Skirmish
I don't know what thing those characters are from, but I really like your magnets and rubiks cube. :3

Would you buy my convention badges?

These badges must be ordered BEFORE the convention if you want a custom one made of either your OC or your favorite character, etc. Here is the link to my convention badge gallery. The badges are made printing paper, colored with colored pencils or markers, then put on posterboard.

I do make anthro/feral badges along with anime/manga themed ones. Don't be shy to ask for something. :3

Would you buy my art?

Okay, I don't know how to make prints, but once I figure out, I'd love to make some art. For an idea of the kind of things I draw, please visit my deviantART for different ideas. Here are some of my favorites from my gallery

All my art before it's printed off or whatever is strictly traditional. :'B Because I'm not too great at digital coloring stuff. Murr.
http://axiroth.deviantart.com/art/Damee ... -151860689 - Collab. I colored this one
http://axiroth.deviantart.com/art/A-Rai ... -149106697
http://axiroth.deviantart.com/art/I-Got ... -145612684

What do you think I should charge for my art? I don't really know how to price this. D:

Would you buy my buttons?

lolz I got to Hobby Lobby and buy some buttons. I make whatever picture the buyer likes and put it in the button. I don't know how to describe this or what to price it. I wish I had more refs, but here's a big button I made for myself.
http://axiroth.deviantart.com/art/Axi-B ... -138068578

And are you allowed to make shirt prints? Because I can do that too. :3 I also make print things on hoodies. I use fabric paint and make the design I want on the shirt with a stencil thingy and a very sharp X Acto knife. OAO Here's a shirt I made for myself
http://axiroth.deviantart.com/art/Starf ... -138068799

Please let me know what you think

[o01101011]

Plushie interest?

I was thinking of making a bunch of this style, of various characters, for the con, but I don't know if there would be interest. No idea what would be an appropriate price to charge either, as I've never sold things through the alley before, I tend to lead more towards making things as gifts for friends like this fellow was. Also, suggestions towards series/characters you think would do well would also be fabulous <3

He's about 10" and the face is hand painted, I'm thinking of making some larger and some smaller then this size depending on if there would be interest;
