CON GALLERY HERE

 Hey everyone! Just popping in to share some exciting news with you all! I've set up a special con gallery page where I'll be showcasing all the cool stuff I've been working on lately. From fandom charms to sticker sheets, and even a fresh batch of Gacha machine goodies featuring brand new collections - there's a lot to look forward to! 

I've been paying close attention to your requests and suggestions, and I've been busy sketching up ideas based on your feedback. Can't wait to reveal what I've come up with! 

But that's not all - I've also been putting in the hours to create a brand spanking new website where you can find all my con merch, including those awesome new fandom items. Stay tuned because I'll be sharing more details on Instagram and Facebook very soon. And once I do, you'll find all the juicy updates right there on my new site. Keep your eyes peeled! 🚀

Ham Plush Development 🐛❤️

 

Ham the Dragonpillar is finally finished, and here in big fat plush form! 🐛❤️ I wanted to share some images of the final product with you all, and he will be available on my Etsy.

This was a labour of love, and I think he turned out fantastic! He is fully CE tested and includes: 

• deluxe Minky material
• puckered toes
• toebean embroidery details
• sensory crinkle on his wings
• tush and ear tags
• airbrushed ears
• magnetic paws to he can touch beans!
• gold foiled adoption certificate

It's time for a comicon roundup!

Last year was such a blast, I wanted to share some photos from conventions to show my table off, as well as some of my gorgeous helpers. Plus, there is a little bonus video so you can have a stall-visit POV! Can't wait for more events this year! ❤️ 

Kenji Arndale Popup

 I am very  excited to announce that once again, I will be exhibiting my products with KenjiUK. This time I will be in the Arndale Centre, Manchester, during the dates of July 12th - 25th 2021. Last year I was fortunate to exhibit in Kenji Liverpool One, and the response was fantastic! I met plentiful new people and had an overall wonderful experience. I can not wait to branch out to another part of the North West! 

At this event, I will be able to showcase a bunch of new jewellery, as well as an updated view of the Ham plush now that the Kickstarter is nearly finished and pre orders are being taken. Hopefully I can see you there - I'll sign off with some photos of the last event! Including a pic of me not knowing how to pose - enjoy! 

New Pins

Very exciting news - we finally have a bunch of new pins available over on my Etsy Shop! 

The new designs available include all of the 'Chaotic Cutie' designs that were funded through Kickstarter such as the Shiba Inu's, Calico, Tuxedo Cat, and the Raccoons. 

We also have some new Creatures such as the Kraken who first debuted a couple months ago over on my Patreon Pin Club. The Kraken features glitter detailing as well as a little dangling ship!

Do you have gaps in your pin boards or lanyards? No problem! I've created some rainbow heart gap-fillers, as well as a little fun 'Fight me' pink knife. I hope you like em! 

New Necklaces

 We have a bunch of new recycled, wooden statement earrings available over on my Etsy Shop! This time we are visiting the Raccoon, Opossum, Red Fox, Froggy Friends and some totally-in-love kitty cats. These necklaces match the 'Endangered Critters' range which I produced last year, and hang on an 18" chain making them a perfect kitschy statement to any outfit.

We have 'Froggy Friends', 'Fairy Frog Mother', 'Chubby Carousel' unicorns, plus choose from 'Cute as Hell' or 'Cute as Heck' Baphomet designs!

This is my Yale Charlie Bear, he says that 'Cute as Heck' are his favourite designs! He's not Baphomet but, they could be distant cousins... right? 

 Ham the Dragonpillar is now available for preorder over on Kickstarter - how exciting! 

He is deluxe, features all kinds of things from sensory crinkle wings, to magnetised paws. He will be fully CE tested and is a perfect friend shape and cuddle buddy! I have everything crossed that we can get this baby funded!

Collaboration with KenjiUK!

These are strange times at the moment, however the creative cogs here in house are constantly turning! Throughout Covid19 I am delighted to have kept busy with many product projects and commissions, thank you to everybody who contributed to keeping my small business afloat. 

Following this, I have some great news... During the month of December 2020 I will be selling my product in KenjiUK, Liverpool One in the 'Local Maker' section!  Kenji is a super quirky Japanese inspired store, with everything from plush, to stationary, to claw machines. How exciting! What do

You can see more information here about the store, I can't wait to see you there! 

Patreon Pin Club now live!

 Good evening you gorgeous people!

Finally after many months of planning I am delighted to share that my new monthly enamel pin club is live over on patreon!

For those close to me (or simply who follow my instagram stories), you will know that I am a rather serious pin collector with over 1000 in my personal collection. It's a bit of an obsession at this point. Creating pins is not 'just business' for me, but probably my biggest passion project to date. It's a dream come true!

I have themed my pin club around my best boy, Ham the Dragonpillar! Both myself and local trans writer @Creatoremagico are collaborating as Ham's Humans on this project:

'Ham and his humans are working hard to create something fun and magical to share with the world. So, have you ever met a Dragonpillar? That’s Ham! Half dragon, half caterpillar and roughly the size of a guinea pig. He's a magical little creature that exists just outside the corner of your eye. Exploring (and eating) are his favourite activities, but above all, Ham loves to make friends! 

Each month Ham explores and meets a new creature. Ham's humans translate his stories into a cute themed monthly parcel of goodies for you to collect. This includes a fully illustrated 'letter from Ham' and of course a pin! There will also be surprise patreon-exclusive extras each month.'

I am very excited to continue making community influenced, fun creatures into enamel pins each month. Please consider checking my Patreon out for full details!

Stall Announcment

Much has happened recently in the world of Cindacry Illustration. To name a few, I have started some larger projects which I am hoping to share with you very soon, as well as securing some new stall events!

I have also updated my gallery, please consider taking a look at the fresh portfolio work in there. This includes both a Dragon Orientated Children's Book Collaboration, and dedicated 'Ham the Dragonpillar' section!

I am very excited to share that I will be attending as an artist at both Liverpool Comicon, and MCM Birmingham 2020! This will be my first MCM event, so I am very excited to attend for the first time as a stallholder rather than a guest, or steward. Please find all details and dates below! 

I am doing a major stock refresh, with all merchandise being available at these events first. Anything left over will be available afterwards over on my Etsy!

See you there! I will update on my specific table numbers when I have them!

Gypsy Queen Children's Book

I have recently had the pleasure of working on a children's book, titled 'The Gypsy Queen', which has just been published in California!

I have had such a fun time illustrating this family adventure book, the prompts were all so fun and imaginative, and the final print came out stunning! Special thanks to my friend at Disney, Megan, for reccomending me for the contract.

I have made a dedicated page within my gallery for this book, please click here to see more about the project including photos, and where you can get a copy! 

Bring on the next project!
