This photoshoot brings the KAM Soda Squid project to a close! This was definitely a challenging project, but watching it come together and seeing other people enjoy their sets means the world to me, so thank you to everyone who has supported the project in any way.

If you missed out on the preorders, they are now in-stock here:

KAM Soda Squid: The Finale

At the beginning of 2024, I looked at my Splatoon Switch and keyboard and had an idea. What if I make a Splatoon-themed keycap set? And I can now say that I actually did it!

Here are some photos of the final product by @/benji.ys on IG

Some exciting things are in the works 👀

Miku Expo 2024

Am I a year late? Yes, but I thought it would be cool to create a summary drawing for each concert I go to.

Here's my preview for the @overfishingzine.bsky.social zine! This was a rough one to finish, but it was heaps of fun! Check out everyone's awesome work when it comes out on November 30!

Golden Egg Shaker Keychain

Some photos of the new and improved golden egg shaker! Featuring a completely translucent body, I tried my best to make it as close to the in-game model as possible.

Now available via my store!

#splatoon #splatoon3 #salmonrun

Once they do arrive, I'd LOVE to see photos of KAM Soda Squid out in the wild so please make sure to tag me!!!

I also plan on staging a cool photoshoot to officially close off the project 👀

My designer copy of KAM Soda Squid arrived today, and I still can't believe it's real!!!

For those who preordered, you're set is likely in the middle of the ocean at the moment so if you could wait just a touch longer it'll arrive soon!

#kamsodasquid

I turned my drawing from the Now or Never zine into a lenticular postcard where the fireworks set off when tilting! I also added writeable backings so you can use them as postcards to send to your fellow cephlapod friends as a thank you gift!

Now available at my store!

Thanks again for supporting this passion project of mine and I'm so excited to see KAM Soda Squid out in the wild!

I won't be able to give specific estimates on shipping times and I recommend asking the vendors directly for specific timeframes (some packages were sent out later than others so do give them a week or 2 to catch up before contacting them).

KAM Soda Squid Monthly Update #5

All packages have been shipped to the individual vendors and are now in the hands of postal carriers. Depending on the chosen vendor, shipping times will vary a lot as each vendor has different shipping processes.

Spring Store Update

I've recently updated my store with some new products including a series of glassware keychains on frosted acrylic, a lenticular Grand Festival postcard and a new and improved golden egg shaker keychain!

Some studies I've done because I've been working on some fan projects, which I'm not allowed to share 😅

The first 2 were referenced from photos I took on a recent Japan trip, and it feels weirdly cyclical doing studies based on photos I took myself. I'd definitely like to continue doing it though!

I won't be able to give specific estimates until the shipping process has begun, as each vendor has their own individual shipping processe,s but I'll be sure to keep you all in the know.

Thanks again everyone for your support, and we're almost at the finish line now

KAM Soda Squid Monthly Update #4

I've got some very exciting news! KAM Soda Squid has officially finished production and is ready to be shipped!

We're just confirming the shipping details from all vendors but it's finally happening!

#kamsodasquid

Happy Splatoon 3 anniversary everyone!

Here's my present for the anniversary: photos of KAM Soda Squid from keyreative the manufacturer! The set is in its final stages and I can't wait for everyone to receive their sets!

Amphibious Friends

My goal is to have a Pokemon drawing for each generation, so here's the drawing for the 2nd generation.

KAM Soda Squid Monthly Update #3

Production has started, and we're almost finishedwith injection moulding. I should hopefully get some photos of the keycaps soon!

Witch's Chandelure - Print now available at my store

Out of the redraws, I think I struggled with this one the most because there were light sources everywhere, and my very amateur knowledge of lighting was not particularly helpful.

Fukuoka Sketchbook

A small collection of drawings I did during my Fukuoka trip. It had been so long since I picked up a pen and drew traditionally, so these were a lot of fun.

My attempt at animating my drawing of Miku's Blooming outfit! I've always wanted to try illustration and animating my own PV, so this was a good experiment!

KAM Soda Squid Monthly Update #2

Deskmats have finished production and are in the process of being shipped to the regional vendors.

The moulds for the keycaps are all done as well, and production should start in the coming weeks.

#kamsodasquid

Blooming

Back in April I had the once-in-a-lifetime experience to go to Japan and see the Fukuoka show of the Hatsune Miku Blooming tour! This is my summary piece of the trip, with the bulk of the flowers referenced from my own photos!

#初音ミクJPツアー2025

(2/2) All deskmat invoices have also been paid & production should be done at the end of July.

Also, the group order bonus vinyl sticker has been made & they look great! They have been designed to be small enough to fit on your switch dock but should work virtually anywhere else

KAM Soda Squid Monthly Update #1 (1/2)

All invoices have been paid and the inserts for the new molds are almost done. Production is planned to be finished around late August to early September.

#kamsodasquid

I also animated it too!

Now or Never

This was my contribution to the Now or Never Zine! I wanted to draw VeronIKA and Hiroooo in a full circle moment, enjoying the Grand Festival fireworks on the stage that marked the start of Splatoon 3.

Metamorphosis - Print now available at my store

I'd like to think that I'm pretty organised when it comes to file management. I really thought that, until I discovered that I didn't save the working file of the 2022 version of Metamorphis so I had to start again from scratch...
