About my production

Process

I make it my mission to produce high-quality and sustainable goods, I want to share that process here with full transparency and all the knowledge I have on my end!

Live Commissions

All of my live commissions are made with real pen and paper. My pens of choice vary but you will usually find me with a Lamy fountain pen, Sakura Brush pen, Windsor & Newton Promarkers, travel water-brushes, Pentel mechanical pencils, and POSCAs.

My paper is often SeaWhite, Windsor & Newton, or Faber Castel.
I use a variety of backing paper, metal rings and clips, and laminate for my badges.

Lino Printing

I use an ESSDEE lino knife set, Muslin for my patches, Speedball fabric ink, and a variety of natural linoleum. My lino cuts are reused until they fall apart; I will then recycle the parts for other prints or throw them away, natural linoleum is fully biodegradable.

Stickers

I make all of my designs from scratch using Clip Studio paint, I will often use multiple photo references in order to correctly depict my subject but nothing is ever traced.

I order my stickers through local UK service Decal Empire. In order for my stickers to get the most mileage (for both the benefit of the customer and in order to reduce excess manufacturing) they are UV printed on vinyl.

Keychains

I am currently refining how I manufacture my keychains. I have used a mix of Wooacry, Muyue, and hand stamping so far. I am currently experimenting with both acyrlic and wood to see what sells best, however I am personally leaning toward wood keychains as they are biodegradable as well as durable.

Any Questions?

Feel free to reach out, I'm always happy to answer any queries.
Any concerns? I'd love to hear them! My research is never foolproof, I may have missed something!
