Speaking of chained pins, if you're a ffxiv fan, this shop does lovely designs that are also subtle enough to pass as Not A Fandom Thing if you need them to. I've got the astro, blm, and carbuncles.

They do make quality pins! And yeah they use Pikachu way too much even though he is the franchise mascot. I have way too much of the yellow rat on my board with out even trying. At least this one is making a snowman and I liked the expression enough on the New Year's one so it gets a pass. Good luck hunting down the BDSP team, between official and custom made you should be able to do it pretty well!

I'm using Blissey for the first time and I urgently want a pin of her with 'gently caress YOU, THAT'S WHY' on it. I might design it and see what I can do about getting it made.

I don’t get pins too often but this one was too good to pass up. A weed cat by artist Casey Weldon! These were super limited and I got the “Blue Dreamer”. It’s a big 3”x3.5” and comes with a neat pouch and sticker.

I am sliding in to say hello, I am the friend that Kass (Strix) quoted on the introductory post to this thread. I've read through the thread and am very delighted with all the pins and good pin taste I have witnessed and want to share some of my own. I have to get my pictures all in order though in the Dropbox folder I've got so here are: My most recent pins    The pins that don't go in my binders for one reason or another  My pins that I've designed (minus four that are currently in production)    And the pins that I have designed or have helped work on for collaborations! That I've received. This is missing two pins (colour variations on pins already here) from the Pharma Kickstarter I was part of, the Gypsy Danger pin that is currently in production, the six pins I did for WorldFantasyCon 2021, and the pin I designed for an author's preorder campaign that I still can't share or say who the author is.  In conclusion, hey hi hello I love pins, I own way more than these, and I am excited to have another place to share and talk about pins.

thelizzerd posted:Any tips on how to keep enamel pins on your backpack? I'm afraid of losing the ones I can't just buy again if I lost them. My buttons I can easily use a safety pin to keep them in place, but I can't with enamel pins. I don't want to glue them down because then when the bag is worn out I wouldn't be able to transfer them. I've been lucky to only lose 2 in the 10ish years since I started collecting buttons and pins. It's still a worry as I begin to buy more now that I can afford to. This sort of thing would be the most secure type of backing for your pins, though the little 'top hat' ones mentioned earlier in the thread are also an excellent option. https://outerlayer.com/products/locking-pin-keepers-set-of-12-with-allen-key

New pins for everybody! Half my French imports arrived. As far as I can tell the company that made these (Saggay) specialized in partnering with a bunch of French artists. The left one is Speedy Graphito and the right I think is this Mezzo, it's hard to find examples of his work and I am bad at traversing non US internet in general. It would make sense though because there's a Moebius inspired pin floating around made by the same company. And as a bonus they're not as expensive as all the fine art and designer pins made by Acme Studio. The prices of those even on the secondary market are often a major yikes.

I don't think she glows though, but I don't have a UV light so I've been making do with my phone's flashlight.

Looking at her size that is probably from the Vinyl Action Gacha series, a mini version available from exclusive gacha machines in Japan. Denshi Tako (electrical octopus) is a robot octopus girl for deep sea exporation! You can find her maker, Hakuro, on her Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hakuro129/ She has the Denshi Usagi (Electrical Rabbit) figure out now as well! If you like things like that, come check out the Sofubi collector's thread!

 And the rest of my French imports. The left I think is advertising a sugar company over there and is done in the style of Paul Cezanne, who's one of my favorite painters thanks to Animal Crossing, and the right is a Keith Haring design but I suspect it may be a fake as there's no marking on it. Oh Well.
