The underpainting is really pretty and pastel but I'm here for contrast and dramatic lighting 💦💦💦 ... But pastels ... Or intense shadows ...

Mmm just forcing my friend to take pics of my new @dreamvalestudios.bsky.social plushie cause my phone is dead.

Sob sob usually someone tells me about an item they for sure bought from me and it's an item I've never made and I'm pretty sure I know who made it. 😂 ...

I am amused that this exists. I will join! Sadly I feel my questions are so simple that so far I'm just expected to know and no one will tell me what I don't know. :(

Was the annual report also a profit and loss statement? Or did you just file taxes as usual even after the existence of the LLC. *I accept that this is location dependant I am just searching for any advice I can get because location based help doesn't exist.

Floral Frolic 🔜 NYCC 2781 @floralfrolic.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

I am completely aware of this fact, and am still asking because there is no help where I live

Floral Frolic 🔜 NYCC 2781 @floralfrolic.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

Asking social media because I have no one else to ask: after you form an llc, what upkeep paperwork is there and how do you file it and how often?

Floral Frolic 🔜 NYCC 2781 @floralfrolic.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

Yeah, I agree. There’s no way the finished product is gonna match. Someone’s gonna assume this is the exact plush they are getting and will be very disappointed. 😢

Floral Frolic 🔜 NYCC 2781 @floralfrolic.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

I know I know 😫 I just foolishly assume everyone cares about stuff like that instead of like…making money.😭 Crazy me, thinking with my artist brain instead of CEO investor brain.

It’s super disappointment when a big plush maker admits to using AI now. Shame on you, Tentacle Kitty.

God bless whatever designer gets burdened with these at their factory. Literally gonna be fighting for their life cause I don’t see how some of these mock ups are possible with mass production.

Floral Frolic 🔜 NYCC 2781 @floralfrolic.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

Their mock ups are confusing…the renderings don’t really tell me what the finishings and textiles are on the plush. What is embroidery? Felt pieces? Fur? Printed fabric? Really a lot of plush designing is fabric and textile planning. I just don’t see how some of those textiles are working.

I like that Fanime offered a night market, as well as general + 18+ doujin market. But the doujin market was so far away, I never had the energy to get over there and I’m still slightly annoyed by it.

Floral Frolic 🔜 NYCC 2781 @floralfrolic.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

AX has one I think, but the vibes were kinda ehhh in past years. San Japan has one (but it was heavily policied, as I recall. At least 18+ areas are pretty common at most fur cons.

Yes, you see the issue. 😅 I think they were stacked nicely in the truck and then it didn’t matter as soon as the vehicle moved. Felt kind bad that they rolled so intensly, we had to unload from the side door because the back was jammed with box pile.

Floral Frolic 🔜 NYCC 2781 @floralfrolic.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

Shout out to our driver today who was really cool about the whole thing. I gave him two bottles of water because it took us over an hour to just unload the truck.

Oh god I totally do get it. Struggling forward while the country implodes is such a mood. We’ve both contemplated getting back into writing and comics cause making stuff is getting so expensive. My last plush shipment cost 10k to ship and it’s so painful.

Floral Frolic 🔜 NYCC 2781 @floralfrolic.bsky.social · 29/09/2026

It’s not even the tariffs that scare me anymore- it’s the skyrocketing price of oil to cover materials and shipping costs that’s left me sweating. 😢

Not to panic anyone, but we are running low on Utena and Anthy bookmarks, and I don’t know if we’ll remake them. So if you were thinking about it, now might be a good time to grab. floralfrolic.com/products/pri...

You might be on to something. I’m currently waiting for the issue to reappear so I can test if turning it off is a fix.

Floral Frolic 🔜 NYCC 2781 @floralfrolic.bsky.social · 27/09/2026

When I’m working in Illustrator, my computer will randomly freeze and start minimizing/maximizing random windows (in chrome, illustrator, etc.) I basically have to do a hard restart to fix it. I think it’s a GPU issue but it’s a relatively new computer and I can’t figure out a solution. 😕

Stickers, anyone? 🤲 [ #cuteart #artshop #shopsmall ]

Two sticker designs. One is holo and is a white cat with a big human hand that reads “if you talk to me about using an AI chatbot I WILL crash out.” The other is a long cat curled around itself, designed to look like a fishbowl aquarium. The water part is printed on clear material.

She’s already here! We received her at the beginning of the month; if you ordered just her, it should be shipping soon. Star Fawn will arrive mid to end of October, too.

The amount of people screaming that they hate everything we've ever made from our last backerkit. 😭 Guys there are no refunds on backerkit projects. It's not a shop. And why back it if everything is so ugly and unwanted? Just why?

Idk why there’s another round of discourse about comic artists vs illustrators or fan artists, it feels like unnecessary in-fighting. I think it’s better to have solidarity with other creative folks and take your anger to the people running events, since they’re setting prices and floor plans!

God there was a car with a “Shoot your local pedophile” decal at the local pharmacy, but the decal featured someone holding a gun to a person’s mouth (and that person was hogtied). It had weirdly sexual undertones and I was like… what are we DOING. It’s been months and I’m still haunted. 😥

Louder for the people in the back. 🙌 You can definitely sell just books but things always go better with some kind of display. You can’t be mad at another artist because you didn’t even bother to bring a banner or any kind of advertising…
