I’m not usually one for making memes, but I made this as I watched my housemate play it in-front of me

at this point tumblr is just for talking to yourself

Hi I love your art - i was wondering if you could do some kind of post on how to start/ organize an online store? Also what kinda packaging do you use for prints?

Thanks!

This is a really big subject that’s been covered quite a lot all over youtube and other word docs, but here’s my personal perspective on running an online store? :D

Starting

I myself use Storenvy, but a bunch of my artist friends use Etsy (and I’ve been considering making the change myself!) Both platforms have a “marketplace” where other customers can find your products, and both take fees from you every time you sell. You can weigh both options and choose according to what you prefer. (I think you have to pay storenvy like, one dollar before you can sell.)

For storenvy, everything is pretty self explanatory! You can even automatically print shipping labels online fast because Storenvy is partnered with shipping easy :D

In terms of promoting yourself, Etsy’s marketplace really helps! For storenvy I don’t place myself in the marketplace because I’ve been doing just fine promoting myself online, but it may be something you want to look into

Organizing

If you’ve got 20+ items, it’s best to split your items into different categories like “prints”/”buttons” etc! I also think that the important and popular items should go on top, like deals :D Here’s my shop for reference

throughout watching season 5 i was bracing myself completely for the queerbait. i was so used to it at this point that even though all of the signs have been there since the beginning, i refused to believe they’d actually take the show in that direction.

until the line “adora doesn’t want me. not like i want her.”

when i first heard catra say it, i was so overcome with emotion because that was the moment i knew they were going to do it. it was finally crossing the line of their love being implied vs it being canon in the story & it was honestly incredible to feel that for the first time.

Parts of my 2D animation exercice at Gobelins. Didn’t have time to finish (last scene is missing), but well… It’s done.

“IN THE BOX HOUSE” COMING OCTOBER 31ST!!!!!!!!

Hi hi! I’m here to announce that a short comic I’ve been working on since July is finally coming this October! And I’m also here to announce that this will be the first comic in my new series: Animal Glass, that is based on emotions/events such as: isolation and derealization, toxic relationships, saying no, gender expression, and being encaged or feeling trapped in a situation.

I hope you come along for the ride!
