Hey everyone! Yesterday, I sent out all the shirt orders I had, YAY, and discovered my supplier gave me some extra shirts so folks who missed the pre-orders for those but still want a shirt, YOU STILL HAVE A CHANCE TO GET ONE! There’s 2 or less available of each shirt size, and I am highly unlikely to reprint these shirts (at least not for a WHILE, wow) so get one while you can!

So, why am I making a whole post then? Because, as I did my orders, I make some decisions about my shop and put a lot of things on sale and generally, I looked over stock and I wanted to discuss where my shop is at.

The State of My Shop: CURRENTLY

So, I’m very focused right now on getting out old supplies and merch so I can make room for new stuff! I’ve been itching to make new, small cute charms (since I still have a ton of supplies to make them) some sticker sheets (since I’m tired of printing stickers at home *and* this would help me kill two birds with one stone) and generally update some books. (My Master is a Naga very specifically, the original Solanaceae book, in a little bit.)

That means…

The Solanaceae and Space School stickers have about less than 5 copies of each design left (I may reprint the designs later, but I will probably do it for conventions or try to get it done professionally. These designs are fun but make me almost no profit when sold online as they take a lot of time to make at home *and* the quality isn’t super great so I can’t charge more than a buck for them :S Sad, but true.)

The original My Master is a Naga: Complete Collection book only has 3 copies left. After this, *this version* of the comic will no longer be in print. I will be replacing it with the “Remastered” version which has just like, overall better readability and I think will make a much nicer book. I didn’t change the art at all, and I’m unlikely to add any new art to this version– so don’t feel like you need to get this new version if you have the old book. The only difference will be better text. XoX These books will take a second to get made though because of all the shortages!

The original Solanaceae: First Collection has less than 15 copies left. I will either give this a “remaster” version like MMiaN has, OR, I will wait to reprint it because I am likely to remake these chapters once the prologue comic catches up. Wild for me to redraw sometime, I know– but it’s entirely possible at the moment. That catching up won’t happen for a while though, so, I may still reprint it? It doesn’t sell super great at the moment, so, we’ll see.

Solanaceae, Prologue, Chapter 3 is on sale because I HAVE WAY TOO MANY. The printer gave me like, 30 copies that were B-Grade (the spine was so distorted that even someone like me noticed, and I am very much not picky) so they resent me ALL OF MY ORDER with better spines so now I have like, 60 OF THAT BOOK!!! AAAH! It’s Chapter 3 so this makes it VERY HARD TO SELL b/c the first volume of anything will always sell the most, then the 2nd, and so on and so forth so OMG having Chapter 3 have so many books is rough. SO YEAH, that’s on super sale, the B-grade copies are like, 15 bucks, and even the regular version is on sale, it’s very affordable atm.

Books like Mini-dom, A to Z volume 1 and 2 all have VERY limited copies left. Again, I am unlikely to get these reprinted FOR A WHILE because they just don’t sell that great (at the moment) Basically all that I have and can reprint will be reprinted once I can do conventions again but uh, I’m still waiting on that (BUDDY, I’M IMMUNOSUPPRESSED)

Put some stuff with limited stock / stock I wanna get rid of on sale: like the Junimo pins, the FFXV charms, small Battam/Naveen print, the MMiaN print, etc. The MMiaN print is still decently popular, but the art is pretty old and I’ve had my stock for a while. Generally, I’d just like to make room for other series. (I cannot believe how well MMiaN still sells… it’s my best selling item and someone like, even drew fanart yesterday? What the heck.)

I plan on expanding my One-Eyed Lee merch quite a bit in the future. Right now, the full cast of the game isn’t introduced so I gotta be like, PLANNED with what I make– but Lee and Beracus are absolutely the *main* characters so it’s safe to focus on them regardless. I would also like to make some Gummy and The Doctor merch, but that depends on how cmakesp and the cast are feeling. Plus, I wanna focus on getting more episodes out before I worry about that. (Episode 2 is currently being worked on)

I don’t plan on making big 11×17 prints like, basically ever again. I do plan on making some small prints of some less merch’d up series (Tomai, Lee) sometime soon though, but it’ll be pretty limited stock to start with b/c I have learned my lesson about buying too much stock, haha. OR AT LEAST I THINK I HAVE.

I plan on expanding my Deltarune button set soon. As well as trying to make charms of them again b/c I still like the design and idea. We’ll see though.

And gosh, yeah, I think that’s just like, generally where I’m at. Looking to sell out of the old, and get in some new stuff. And, of course, I will continue to print Solanaceae Prologue books as I finish each chapter. Those are ALWAYS fun to do.
