:star: UPDATES

:bulletpurple: From now on (11/18/2008) when you ask for a quote you'll have to complete and send me the following form:

Your first name:
Your country:
Method of payment:
Shipping: regular/registered (you can ask for both too)
Name of the character:
Reference pics: (full body, front and back, details if needed)
Size:
Details: Here you'd write specific details that you want me to take into account such as eye color, if you want the plushie to be poseable or not, details that can be omited, etc.

this way we won't have to exchange many notes and all the process will be much quicker :)

:bulletpurple: I just wanted to let you know that I decided to take *pheleon's advice and I'll set a 7 day rule (this is not like the fake 13day rule in Death Note XD) So, if you ask for a commission slot you'll have to send your payment within the following week. I think that's enough time. If you don't pay I'll write your name in my Death Note, I promise.

:bulletpurple: I'll open slots for commissions. Once you asked for a slot you can't change your mind. I'm sorry but I can't tolerate people cheating on me anymore. People who say that they want a plushie and that they'll send the payment right away and they never do will be in my deadbeats list.

:bulletpurple: I'M ACCEPTING PAYMENTS THROUGH PAYPAL TEMPORARY. You'll have to send the money to my friend's account since I can't withdraw the money from mine (I need a bank account in the USA to withdraw funds and I live in Argentina so... you know). There is a fee for Paypal payments (both funds and credit card) You can calculate it here >> [link]

:star: COMMISSIONS PROCESS

1. If you're under age ask your parents for permission to buy the plushie before telling me; take into account that you must give me your address and personal information and that you'll need an adult to send me the money.

2. Send me a note with the following form:

Your first name:
Your country:
Method of payment:
Shipping: regular/registered (you can ask for both too)
Name of the character:
Reference pics: (full body, front and back, details if needed)
Size:
Details: Here you'd write specific details that you want me to take into account such as eye color, if you want the plushie to be poseable or not, details that can be omited, etc.

4. After evaluating the size and complexity I'm going to tell you if I can make the plushie or not. If I can make it I'll let you know how much the plushie would cost.

5. If you accept the price of the plushie, I'm going to reserve an slot for you and I'll give you all my info in order to recieve the payment from you.

6. I'll start making the plushie after I recieved the money. If I'm free at that moment it can take me 1 week to have a not very difficult plushie ready, but if I'm busy or if I have another plushies to make first it can take me a month or more.

7. When I finish the plushie I'll send it to you via airmail.

8. If your package gets lost or damaged I won't be responsible. I haven't had that problem yet, but I'm saying this just in case. The best way to make sure that your plushie will arrive is choosing "registered mail".

:star: PLUSHIE TYPES

:bulletpurple: Anime/manga chibis
:bulletpurple: Anime mascots [link] [link]
:bulletpurple: OC chibis

That's what I can make by now. I prefer not to make mechas, mosters, anthros and real humans or animals. Anyways, if you want a plushie of one of those categories but you think it's not very difficult to make, send me a note ;)

:star: PLUSHIE SIZES AND PRICES

*The sizes are in cm, if you want to know them in other systems here is a quick link to a converter >>> [link]

*The price of the plushie depends on its complexity, fabrics and special details or accesories you want me to add. The following is general info so you can have an idea of how much your custom plushie would cost.

*The following info is for "human" plushies.

:bulletpurple: Standard size: 30 cm.

Relatively simple plushies like these would cost US$30-US$45 >>





More complex and detailed plushies like these would cost US$45-US$65 >>





:bulletpurple: Large size: 40 cm. (poseable)

Relatively simple plushies like these would cost US$40-US$60>>





More complex and detailed plushies like these would cost US$60-US$80>>

Price: Up for offers [link]

:bulletpurple: Cute lovers cakes

Price:
US$50 for both cakes (both with tags)

:bulletpurple: Cute Xmas plushies

Price: Up for offers [link]

:star: SHIPPING

I send the plushies by airmail. The price depends on the weight. I can't know the exact weight until the plushie is finished so I'll try to estimate it the better I can. If the plushies don't have special accesories, I can mail up to 3 30cm plushies together. Anyway I have to confirm this because the price varies for each 500 gs.

:star: PAYMENT

I'M ACCEPTING PAYMENTS THROUGH PAYPAL TEMPORARY. You'll have to send the money to my friend's account since I can't withdraw the money from mine (I need a bank account in the USA to withdraw funds and I live in Argentina so... you know). There is a fee for Paypal payments (both funds and credit card). You can calculate it here >> [link]

I accept money through Western Union, well hidden money by mail (at your own risk) and international money orders. There is an extra 10% fee for money orders, this fee is kept by the bank since I can't cash them at the mail office (we don't use money orders here :S )

I'll start making the plushie once I've received the money. Please be sure you have the money before reserving a slot.

:star: TRADES

Depending on the moment I will accept trades with other plushie artists or trades for other things (anime merchandising, mangas, kawaii stationery, etc.). Check out my journal to know if trades are open or not.

TRADES ARE CLOSED ATM

:star: FAQ

A lot of people asked me about how I make my plushies. I don't really want to share my technique nor my patterns, of course O_O I must say that no one had ever taught me how to sew or design a plushie and that's why I don't like teaching other people. I think you only need PPP (practise, patience and perseverance)
Anyways, these are some things I don't mind sharing.

* Do you use a sewing machine?
No, I don't know how to use it. I handsew all my plushies.

* How do you make the eyes?
I draw the eyes (freehand) on the fabric and then I paint them using acrylics.

* How do you make the hair?
I draw the design on a piece of paper, I cut it, I attach it on the fabric and I cut the fabric.

* What fabrics do you use?
I used to use felt for everything at the beginning but now I'm using "polar" (polar fleece) for the outfits. I use velour for the skin. I also use "cuerina" (synthetic leather), "paño lenci" (felt), "towel" and "friza" for some details.
Take into account that the fabrics may vary because I don't know their names in English.

* What do you use for stuffing?
We call it "vellon", I don't remember how to call it in English but it looks like cotton. It's soft and light.

:star: TEES

I'm selling t-shirts, they cost US$20 each ^^
Sizes available are S, M and L.
