Tangela Ramen 3D Pokemon Card Shadow Box by MechanicalPen

I love looking back through my sources of inspiration when creating art, so my creative process usually starts with pulling in ideas from emo/alt fashion, characters that I grew up watching or playing, and usually a lot of skeleton references! From there, I’ll sketch out my initial designs, but my favourite part is by far the inking; this is where I can really lean into the details and heavy blacks I love! I print and cut all my posters, stickers and dioramas in house – I love getting to directly oversee the quality as well as having the ability to do small batches and keep them affordable for you all! When it comes to my keychains and temporary tattoos, I partner with a manufacturer who is able to bring my designs to life at the highest quality! Prior to being a full time artist, I was an engineer, so I love to bring the design and technical aspects of that field into my work 🔥
