Shiny Tiger Shark stickers and Sparkle Assorted Fish sticker sheets are now available in the Online Shop!
Welcome 2021 with some glitzy fishies!
These stickers honor some of my favorite fish in the sea. First, Tiger Sharks are large requiem sharks known for the striped “tiger” markings they display as young adults. Although they have been known to attack humans, we shouldn’t take that personally—they are also known to take a bite out of anything just to see if it tastes good. Something I can sympathize with. Second, the Assorted Fish sticker sheet features four of my favorite fish—to eat! Mackerel, anchovies, sardines, and salmon are all good sources of protein and omega-3 fatty acids, and this sheet includes the web address of SeafoodWatch.org, where you can find recommendations for best buying practices for a sustainable and healthy ocean.
The tiger shark sticker is 15 cm long (that’s almost 8 inches!) and printed on shiny holographic gloss paper. It comes in two varieties, pointing left (pictured) and pointing right.
The Assorted Fish sticker sheet is A5 (5.85”x8.25”) and includes one large Atlantic Spanish Mackerel, four small white anchovies (two facing each direction), two small sardines (one each direction) and one extra large female Pink Salmon on sparkly holographic paper. Each fish is labeled and the sheet includes the web address for SeafoodWatch.org.
The Heliopause table at last year’s BLFC. Hoping for another great weekend!
In a couple weeks Heliopause Productions will be at Biggest Little FurCon in Reno, NV, May 17-19. I’ll be sharing a vendor table with Mary “Moth Monarch” Capaldi, and you’ll probably be able to find us by the tower of wire frames we’ll erect to show off all the goodies we’re bringing to town. You can find an assortment of Moth’s wares over on at their shop, and I’ll be bringing lots of books, prints, greeting cards, and some brand new merch that will be available exclusively at conventions.
Weekday Cat sticker sheets
I love stickers, and I love sticker sheets as an easy and economical way to collect stickers. The Weekday Cats give you a kitty for each day of the week, all on a handy A5 sheet. This item goes for $10 per sheet, and is already listed on the online store if you absolutely cannot wait. I will also have fine art prints of each individual cat available at the con!
Art Cards and eBook Cards
Clockwise from top: Escape from the Celestial Palace, Rhondi, Furry Umbrella, Star Walker’s First Steps, Parhim, Nebula, Merman with Octopus, and Mist Spinner.
According to my printer these are “postcards” but the quality is so good I don’t think anyone would want to send them through the mail without an envelope. Really they are more like super-sturdy art prints, and I have them in a variety of my favorite pieces. These are $10 each, can be signed and customized on the back, and are not currently listed in the online store.
Also debuting at BLFC, for the first time ever I am selling eBook Art Cards! These are the same quality as my art cards, but with the book’s cover on the front and bonus art on the back. With purchase of a card, you also get the book associated with it delivered right to your inbox as an epub or mobi file (or both at no added cost). Cards are signed and can be personalized, just like a traditional book, but if you prefer to read on your tablet or phone, you don’t have to lug the whole book around. I’ll have cards forDriving Arcana Rotation 4 and Professor Odd: The Complete Season One available at my table. These will be available exclusively at conventions, and are $10 each—eBook included!
The Professor Odd Season One eBook Card has the season cover on the front, and one of the six single release covers on the back. Pick your favorite cover art, get the whole book!
New Barn Owl Charm
I love acrylic charms, and I’ve adapted one of my favorite Strange Owls as such. Meet the Strange Barn Owl charm, perfect for looking after your keys or decorated your bag! They join my growing collection of charms, including the Strange Elf and Great Gray Owls, and the Andromeda Galaxy Cat. The Strange Barn Owl will be available first at BLFC, and for orders online afterward.
Con Exclusives
As always, my table at a convention is the only place you can commission me for sketchbook drawings. I can also do original commissions on 9″x12″ bristol board, for those of you who don’t have or can’t bring sketchbooks. Currently conventions are the only place where I can take commissions, so keep that in mind! My prices for a standard size sketchbook (8.5″x11″/A4/9″x12″) start at $25 for an Artist Choice quick sketch, $50 for a pencil drawing, $75 for an Artist Choice brush pen study, and $100 for a fine inked piece. It’s 50% more for each additional character or detailed background, and there may be a surplus charge for extra large sketchbooks or complex characters. There may also be discounts for small sketchbooks. All surplus charges and discounts are made at the sole discretion of the artist. Chatting and estimates are always free, and I try to deliver commissions by the morning of the following day.
My li’l original display from WorldCon—each of these is one of a kind, so my display at BLFC will include new and unseen pieces!
My convention table is also the only place where you can buy from my Li’l Original Gallery—these are quarter sheet brush pen sketches on Lokta paper, and are all $20 each. You can also get one made to-order for $25—simple prompts only!
Moving On…
After BLFC my next convention will be at AnthroCon in Pittsburgh, PA, July 5-7, where I will have a full table to real show off everything Heliopause Productions has to offer. Hope to see you here or there, and if not, take care!
