Gachapon Rules and ToS

  • By rolling for a design, you agree to my design ToS
  • "First paid first served" - mystery gachapon slots will be rolled in the order that they are paid for. 
  • You may change the design as you'd like (ex: species, design elements, colors, etc.)
  • You may resell, regift. or trade designs as you'd like once they are fully paid for and confirmed by you.

What is a "Gachapon"?

Gachapon (also Gashapon or ガシャポン)
It is a style of toy capsule vending machine where the buyer pays and gets a random toy, keychain, or other item from a shown selection.
Unlike traditional gachapon, this machine gives every buyer a unique, one of a kind design! No duplicates!


✽ April Swap Zone ✽

Posted 28 days, 20 hours ago by TropicalSteppe

Another trade bulletin!

This'll be used through the month, including for my gachapon event next weekend

__________________

when posting a design to trade, be sure to include:
- what you're looking for (swaps/trades/money/art/etc)
- a link to the character's profile, OR use the "in-character" commenting option

__________________

I'll update these rules as needed.

Be kind, be easygoing.
I will not have any active roll in disputes or other issues in trading. It's between traders to settle how they'd like to work their deal.
This page is for swapping, trading, and reselling designs I've made. No other designers on the start of a thread, thanks!

Update | Ko-Fi Changes

Posted 1 month, 3 days ago by TropicalSteppe

Hello! 

No april fools posting, I've got a change to my monthly membership!
One of my rewards on my ko-fi tier has changed - instead of monthly bases, I'll now be taking illustration requests each month. 

It'll work similar to my design requests - just drop a link to the toyhouse page of the character you want drawn. I'm planning to draw a couple of them each month, to start.
I felt that I'd  made everything I wanted to make into a base when the reward started, and I wasn't getting much out of it anymore. I hope that you'll enjoy the new reward even more!


Also, sadly, I've been ghosted at payment on the recent charity design. So I'm putting it back up as a flatsale at $200. 100% of it goes to the PCRF. Please consider it, and DM me if you're interested!

What traits do you associate with my designs? ie: you see it and think, "that looks like jackie made that"

sheezy page

Posted 1 month, 19 days ago by TropicalSteppe

A lot of you already found me on there lol

Still uploading a backlog of art. 2021 has been finished and I've started uploading stuff from 2022.
My page is super cute, so you should say hi if you use the site too :o3 https://sheezy.art/jackie

  Check em out!   

These are all printed & machine cut in-house, by yours truly.
The material is vinyl, but not fully waterproof. It's good for things like journals or laptops, but not waterbottles or bikes :)

I hope you're all having a good start to 2024 so far! I'm returning to my queue  of things to do this week, and hope I can have some designs up here by  the end of the month too.
