Last July I retired from my position of 31 years and quickly began focusing on the things I really enjoy doing. One of those is art. I started out by drawing my pulse rifle, then my blade runner blaster, motion tracker, and just kept going with things I enjoy and the next thing I knew I had almost 60 designs! I opened my Etsy sticker shop at the beginning of November. It didn’t even occur to me to post it up here until I saw ssdesigner’s post last week.

I’ve also posted gallery shots because about half of the stickers shown here are NOT listed on my Etsy page. 7 days after opening the store, Viacom flagged my F14 tomcat sticker as IP infringing for Top Gun Maverick. Even though the F14 was not infringing, I did not want to argue since I knew that some did. Anyway, I know that many sell “fan art” for years on Etsy without issue, but it scared me enough to take it all down. Etsy says 3 strikes and you’re off the site permanently.
All the stickers are drawn on my iPad in procreate, printed on waterproof vinyl sticker paper with my Epson printer, I cover them with a matte oracal UV protectant, and cut on a Cameo 4.
I’ve also started playing around with 20 mil magnet sheets to make the designs into refrigerator magnets but the cameo is giving a little trouble with consistent cuts through the material. I’ll update when I get it figured out!
If you see anything you’re interested in, here or on my Etsy store, let me know!
