That said, below is the commission queue for all orders (even those completed at the con) taken on during Anthrocon 2010. For better or worse, I didn’t take on that many. I’m still reeling from a trip I took just the day before leaving for Anthrocon (and dealing with food poisoning to boot), so I spent this con relaxing and having fun meeting new people more than working. BUT now that I’m back and resting up, all that should change. >:)

Anthrocon Commission Queue

You can check the progress of your order by using this color code:

Note: You may not see every step in the above process for your order. You may have ordered a more simple commission, or I may just work really hard one night and get it done in one fell swoop.

Summer is here! Time to bust out the lei’s and do the Hula! Since our last collaborative badges, the Bell Collar Badges, were such a success, Rochelle “Digitalblood” Steder and I are offering a new collaborative badge style: Summer Luau!

What they look like:

Check out our sample and completed badges here, and see several examples from our last badges below!

With this badge, you get:

• The artwork:
  • Your character drawn from the neck up, inked and colored in quality, highly-detailed real media
  • Your choice of facial expression (suggestions: cute, sexy, serious, snarling, happy, sad)
  • Your choice of accessories within reason (suggestions: sunglasses, glob of sunscreen, balancing a beach ball on the nose, etc.)
  • Your name written boldly on the colored cardstock (if there’s a unique way you want it written, let us know!)
• Laminated front and back
• Badge clip/key ring attached
• Colorful Lei added that dangles around the neck
• Tropical Sticker added (current choices: palm tree, green leaf, pink flower while supplies last)

Ready for your next con or event!

We can get your badge done in under two weeks from the time we receive your order (in reality, we’ll likely get it done in just a few days!).

Our badges are incredibly sturdy! In addition to the cardstock itself being quite strong, the double-lamination makes them very durable! Great for people who run around or like to suit at cons.

Badge and shipping prices

• The badges are $25 each.
• US shipping is $2
• non-US shipping is $3

We currently accept payment through PayPal only at danalarson111@gmail.com.

A note on shipping: We may ship your badge with the key ring/clip unattached. This is to avoid any possible damage from the clip nudging against the badge during shipping. WE HAVE NEVER HAD ANY PROBLEMS WITH SHIPPING OUR BADGES! They arrive cushioned in bubble wrap and cardboard.

Samples from our last badges

Note: We do our best to give everyone as unique an appearance/expression as possible! Sometimes several people request the same thing, however.

We’re sorry to disappoint, but fret not! We will be offering a NEW, summer-themed badge style very soon! Stay tuned and look for a new ad to be released on FA!

If you have ordered a badge any time before April 30th, regardless if you have paid or not, you can and will STILL get your BELL COLLAR BADGE (once you pay, if you have not already). In addition, Bell Collar Badges may be available at Anthrocon and possibly Midwest Furfest (other cons TBD). As usual if you have any questions, just send us a note!

Rochelle Steder is currently open for other kinds of commissions if you are interested. I (Dana) have a waiting list for other, non-badge commissions if you would like to get on that (refer to my “commission information” page).

Hey everyone! I’d like to announce a collaborative art project between Rochelle “DigitalBlood” Steder and myself. We are offering “Bell Collar Badges!” The badges feature your character’s portrait from the neck up, a collar of your color choice, your character’s name, a badge clip, lamination and a real, jingling bell!

On this page you can see what they look like, read all the details about them, and leave a note to place an order if interested.

What they look like

Please click this image for full-view to see what the badges look like both ‘plain’ and laminated with the clip and bell:

For more samples, look below our queue list at the bottom. We post all the completed ones there.

As you can see, we both put a lot of detail and care into these!

Our process (and real, jingling bells!)

They are drawn and inked by me on smooth Bristol stock with Micron inking pens, colored by Rochelle with quality markers, and laminated. We attach a clip and sew a bell on and they’re good to go!

The bells really do jingle! They are not loud and obnoxious, but if you clip the badges on your pants and walk around, people will definitely notice!

With this badge, you get:

• The artwork:
  • Your character drawn from the neck up, inked and colored in quality, highly-detailed real media
  • Your choice of facial expression (suggestions: cute, sexy, serious, snarling, happy, sad)
  • Your choice of collar color
  • Your name written boldly on the collar (if there’s a unique way you want it written, let us know!)
• Laminated front and back
• Badge clip attached
• Real, jingling bell sewn on!

Ready for your next con or event!

We can get your badge done in under two weeks from the time we receive your order (in reality, we’ll likely get it done in just a few days!).

Badge and shipping prices

• The badges are $25 each.
• US shipping is $2
• non-US shipping is $3

We currently accept payment through PayPal only at danalarson111@gmail.com.

A note on shipping: We may ship your badge with the clip unattached. This is to avoid any possible damage from the clip nudging against the badge during shipping.

This particular badge offer is now closed. We’ll be offering a new badge style very soon!
