Draw This In Your Style - Flower Maiden

My own DTIYS to celebrate 100+ followers on Instagram! Thank you so much for all the love and support! To join this art challenge, take a look at my post.

If you don't already know, this is a redraw of my original character Flower Maiden that I made back in 2013 to use in RPG Maker VX Ace. The original Flower Maiden is a free digital game asset that includes a sprite sheet and some faceset/emoset. I might make an updated portrait of the Flower Maiden for RPG Maker MV, but not the sprite since there's already a sprite generator in the latest software. If I ever do, I'll post it here and on the RPG Maker forums!

I'm now selling t-shirts on Amazon!

My t-shirts for the matching couples moon and sun t-shirts are now live on Amazon! Also I decided to have it available on Redbubble as well although it is a bit more expensive on there. I just thought it would be more convenient for customers to have it available in different markets.

This mockup photo is from Redbubble. I did a little bit of editing to get the matching shirts to be together in one photo and it looks so cute when you can see it together visually!

You can get the shirts on Redbubble:

Matching Couples Moon and Sun (Hers) Classic T-Shirt

Matching Couples Moon and Sun (His) Classic T-Shirt

Or on Amazon:

Matching Couples Minimal Moon with Heart (Hers) T-Shirt

Matching Couples Minimal Sun with Heart (His) T-Shirt

Cute Vegetable Stickers Done

I finished up on the vegetable stickers a few days ago, but figured I should make a post about it to be concise with the fruit stickers. XD

Turning my Coloring Books into Stickers

Currently I'm transforming my coloring book illustrations into stickers. So far I finished coloring my designs from "Cute Fruits" and the stickers are sold on my Redbubble shop!

Links to the stickers:

Cute Fruits 10 Piece (Set 1)

Cute Fruits 10 Piece (Set 2)

I wished I could have put them all in one sheet, but they would have been super tiny since there's a total of 20 fruits; that's why I split it into 2 sets.

My Redbubble Store

Today I released 4 designs on Redbubble! They look so cute on mugs! I can't wait to release them as t-shirts as well on Amazon once publishing resumes for Merch by Amazon.

The prices seen on the picture is the 20% off when you buy any 4 and they also have 15% off when you buy any 2. It's a pretty neat promo offer since you can mix and match with other mug designs by other artists on Redbubble!

Also I'm still debating if I should redo my banner on Redbubble...

Cat Foodie: Coloring Book is live

I recently published my new coloring book! I never thought I'll ever be obsessed with cats until I had a cat of my own. It all started when my friend had to give up on his cat when he was moving away and that's when I took in his cat named Kitty. Quite a name, right? I kept her name as is because apparently cats respond well to names that end in "y." Kitty was the most nicest cat ever—and chubby. She loved to nap on my bed, go in boxes, and got crazy whenever she heard a bag of treats. The sweetest moments with Kitty was when I laid in bed, she would climb up to my chest and massage me with her cute little paws and lay there purring. However my time with her only lasted for a year because oddly enough I had to move and give her up as well. But Kitty did end up with my friend again. Anyway my coloring book was inspired from my love for cats and food; plus everything looks better when it's cat shaped!

I'm making Coloring Books!

As of late I have been working on creating coloring books on KDP(Kindle Direct Publishing). I happened to stumble upon a Youtube video on my feed and that's what started it all. The video I watched was by Let's Draw with BeeJayDeL(link to the video here).

Instead of using the software mentioned in the video, I used Krita to draw my illustrations and Scribus to compile my manuscript. Both are free to use which is good for starters like me.

I was very excited to begin publishing my own coloring books so I started off with some simple and cute illustrations. I have already published two books! You can check them out on Amazon:

Pixel Nature Furniture is now Free

I have decided to make this asset free! Donations are always welcomed. 

I also want to make a shout out to the person who donated for my flower maiden like over a year ago! Sorry for the late shout out, I haven't been active lately as you can see haha...
