Hello all,

I'd like to thank everyone who has viewed, commented on, and favorited my art, everyone who watched to see what I'd make next, all the people who supported my toy making. I wouldn't be where I am today as an artist if it wasn't for this support. Deviant Art means a lot of things to a lot of people. To me it is a community of dreamers.

I'm still making fanart, but I am drawn toward the idea of original work. I finally have an idea I'm passionate enough about to share with you: Ambassadorables!

The idea is a line of plush toys based on the national symbols, flags, and beautiful cultures of countries around the world. It started as an original plush I made for a friend of mine, and I have the ambition to grow it into a full, industrially produced brand. I still have a lot of details to think through, but the trick to getting started is to start. I'll eventually do a Kickstarter, which I will announce here, and I also plan to get these cuties on store shelves. If you are interested in following me on this journey (and a sneak peek of the project), all my social media accounts are linked on my website, ambassadorables.com.

Stay beautiful DA!

Hello all!

I wish I was writing to you under better circumstances. Unfortunately, I have just been alerted to a fraudulent seller (CustomPlushiBoutique) on Etsy using my photographs and words to sell fake listings of my plushies. The works they stole include Sans, Asriel, Mad Dummy, Alphys, Undyne the Undying, Flowey, and Napsta and Hapstablook. I have reported them for copyright violation, but if anyone wants to take the time to report them (ex. for not meeting Etsy's policies) I would really appreciate it. Three of their listings have already been bought, and I would hate for more customers to be duped by a seller who is turning what is supposed to be a platform to empower artists into a scam.

Even though I am aware this happens somewhat often, this is the first time someone has used my intellectual property to sell a fake listing. I am disgusted that my art would be used in such an exploitative way, and hope Etsy resolves this issue quickly and refunds any customers who purchased fraudulent listings.

This is a link to the CustomPlushiBoutique: www.etsy.com/shop/CustomPlushi….

10/12 Update: Etsy got back to me and deleted the listings above. They haven't banned the shop or addressed the fraudulent sales, but for now it is a step in the right direction! Thank you everyone for your support! Hopefully there will be justice soon.
