Hello Steemit!
apart from tattoos l also create merch,
sometimes for bands, sometimes for clothing brands...and sometimes for myself.
l have an Etsy shop where l sell some of my own merch,t-shirts,stickers,prints...and pins.
l love pins, l use to have some when l was a kid, but l have to say that l would have loved to have some horror themed ones..sadly they weren't around when l was a kid.
so couple of years ago l decided to venture into the pin world, and created my first pin.
lt was based on a design l did for Valentines day at my tattoo shop
maybe l should do another post about that flash as it was quite fun to do..
anyway, in these last couple of years l produced some pins, and collected tons more but most important l met super cool people along the way!
today lm gonna show you one of my pin designs, it's a mix between 'Freddy Krueger' and a toy line from the 80s..Madballs!
So first l drew him and inked his face with Procreate,sorry l don't have the sketch only then linework
Then coloured the piece with photoshop and made a mock up of how it would look with the backing card etc..
And finally got the pin done!
here are 2 photos, from the front and the back, l tried to replicate the blisters they came with..very colourful and vibrant
Thanks for looking and remember..Don't fall asleep! :)
