Official Store Launch!

Hey there! If you're reading this, you can probably tell that this storefront isOFFICIALLY LIVE!!Eventually, once I create more product listings, I'll implement discounts and sales and such, but for now, what you see is what you get. That doesn't mean that I won't do my best to make sure all of my illustrations are of their highest quality, and I promise you won't ever regret a purchase!Now, I've got plenty of plans for the future of this store, so I'd like to get into a little bit of what you can expect from this site going forward.The PresentAt current, the only published creator that I've gotten the opportunity to make officially-licensed merchandise of is the author of The Astria Trilogy. Everything within the Astia Trilogy category on this store page is official, and you won't find that anywhere else! Otherwise, any fandom-related merchandise you may see on here is COMPLETELY FAN-MADE. I repeat, MY FANDOM MERCH IS NOT OFFICIALLY LICENSED. This sentiment will be reiterated within applicable listing descriptions, but I wanted to ensure this message was broadcast in as many places as possible as to make it harder to miss. I do not intend to create merch items that compete with officially licensed products, either. I'm simply filling a gap in certain markets that I, personally, would like to see filled, such as a keychain of my favorite character who doesn't get merch made of them often, or stickers for a fandom that does not sell official stickers.All other fan content, such as fanart of others' original characters, are all up with the owner's consent. Fanart content has the potential to be taken down any time and for any reason if the owner of the character decides they are uncomfortable with the listing/s. However, in cases of fanart, it is only the likeness of the character that I do not directly own. Rest assured that all of the artwork in my store is and will always be drawn by me, without exception.The FutureAs I've stated above, I have many plans and desires for the future of this store, so now I'd like to outline a couple of things you can expect to see as I continue to update and add to this store page.Some fandoms that I plan on or am in the process of creating fan merchandise for are;DanganronpaPalworldFive Nights at Freddy'sIdentity VCandy LandWizard 101Epic Battle FantasyInterstella 5555; The 5tory of the 5ecret 5tar 5ystemThe Greatest Estate DeveloperSome officially-licensed merch I'm planning to make more of are The Astia Trilogy and Original Character content. I already have some up now, but you can be expecting more characters with a greater variety of listings to come soon!Speaking of listings, this site thankfully lets me create a wide variety of merchandise items, so some that you can be expecting to see in the future are;More stickersMore keychainsMore standeesPinsMagnetsBookmarksShirtsBannersBlanketsTemporary tattoosPlushiesTrading cardsPrintsAnd a whole lot more!Wrapping UpPlease rest assured that none of the artwork you will see from me will ever be NSFW or explicit. The worst you may see is something mildly suggestive, as I have a couple of original characters with slightly revealing clothing, but anything more than that makes me uncomfortable to even draw, let alone sell. However, if you'd like to see all of my other artwork, be they related to merch or not, or see sneak peeks into some works in progresses I have, please consider checking out all of my social media! Every platform you can find me on are all linked on my website!I'm super excited to get started on all of these projects I have in mind, but this is still my job first and foremost, so your support is greatly appreciated. If you know someone that would like my page, share it with them! I enjoy having art to sell to give something back to those who support me, but if you'd like to simply donate to my cause, I also have a KoFi page where you can make donations to me. All funds go right back into my work of creating art, starting a business, and branching out into other artistic mediums, such as fanslations and garage-kit creation, and help me live my life as a disabled artist.If you have any ideas for items/characters/fandoms you would like to see on my store, please feel free to reach out! I'm always looking for inspiration! All creation, shipping and handling of the physical merchandise is managed by Artiststore, but if you have any issues with your products/orders, then you can find both me and Artiststore staff on the official Artiststore Discord server.Lastly, don't forget to subscribe to Seastorm1052 on YouTube, as she is not only the creator of The Astria Trilogy, but she will also have the right to give out special discount codes for this store in the future for those that watch her livestreams. So, if you'd like the chance to catch a special deal, or you just want some entertainment in the meantime, she goes live every Saturday at 1PM EST. Go give her a watch, she's a lot of fun!That's all I have to say for now! Thank you for being here to support the opening of my store, and I look forward to being able to provide you with all of your fandom-related content needs in the future!- Eco <3
