Time to make some pins that aren’t enamel! :D
These are just basic introductions to different materials…there’s so much to each of these they really need their own guide OTL
I’ve made aaaaalmost everything listed, just not shrink paper and laser cutting. If you can get your hands on a badge press I can highly recommend! It’s a great starter pin with so many options if you can find cool paper or films
Nail art supplies are a good source for little things that can go in badges, the first holographic film I used was for nail art. Toner reactive foil is also neat If you want to make shiny gold things!
something I personally do for every acrylic, wood and enamel design is a print test. This is to check the size and see what bits are hard to read or so small they aren’t needed. I find it can be tricky to visualise size looking at a screen, it’s a quick way to make it a tangible object
really gotta stress how important knowing the material is. I’ve had issues with every material, but sometimes the solution is as simple as me stuffing up or a miscommunication.
But yeah these are all just the basics, look around for guides specifically on each of these. I miiiight do one for printed acrylic though? maybe

Anonymous: I really like the color palettes for your OC's! How do you go about deciding those? (Aside from the pride ones, which I imagine is a different process)
thank you! uhhh it’s so ingrained in how I work I’m not sure how to describe it ^^’ don’t really consciously have anything in mind. Kind of absent mindedly remember nice colour palettes I see around me and sometimes incorporate those. I take lots of photos of random plants.
Only conscious thing I do is simplifying palettes! It’s something I started actively doing when I started animating more, it sucks individually colouring like 10-15 different swatches. So I try to limit my colours as much as possible and make the colours that are there count! usually aim for around 5-6.
the pride versions of the designs were actually the same as normal! a bunch of my ocs happened to match up with their flags anyway XD all colours start from a point of inspiration, those were just more obvious.
