In my exploration of direct digital downloads, I bring you a cheesy Valentines card based on one of my Shrumans!
It’s available on my Etsy store in a few different printout styles.
Merry Christmas! Printable Christmas Card Featuring Mushroom Santa
The Christmas Card you didn't ask for but now you want undeniably…Mushroom Santa! Now available on Etsy as an instant download card you can print out DIY style.
One more mushroom fellow for the Shruman empire! I still have my mushroom people stickers available on Etsy as well that can be the perfect combo gift. :)
"Shrumans 2" Mushroom Stickers Released on Etsy
Now that my new Cricut is operational, we will start seeing more stickers! My “Shrumans 2” stickers are a sequel to my “Shrumans 1”, which come both as a set and separately on my Etsy store!
With “Shrumans 2” I wanted to add more emotional range. I take my inspiration from the ridiculous and cute stickers found in Japanese stationery whose mascots have a life of their own. Think Hello Kitty and Sanrio, but there are far weirder and creative mascots out there. It’s more challenging to get characters to be expressive when they are rendered more realistically, but I think my experiment was successful in finding a balance!
Mushroom Character Time-lapse Video
I have been working on a few more mushroom characters to add on to my “Shrumans” series. I recorded my process this time so you can see how I build up depth using a smooth airbrush and a hard-edge “gouache” brush in Photoshop. I am still working on producing a sticker pack with these little buds, but you can find the first set of stickers on my Etsy store.
All of my Shrumans in their mushroom glory.
