How do you handle complex details in my illustration?

We understand that your art is your brand. While traditional enamel requires metal lines to separate colors, we use Silk Screen Printing for details smaller than 0.3mm (like eyes or intricate patterns). This allows us to print directly onto the smooth enamel surface, ensuring your design remains faithful to the original without over-simplifying.

What is the typical profit margin for artist pins?

Jewelry-quality Hard Enamel pins have a high perceived value. Most independent artists retail their Standard Grade pins for $12–$18 USD . Even with a small batch order, your profit margin is significantly healthier compared to paper goods like stickers or prints, making them an ideal anchor product for your shop.

Can I order a small batch to test a new design?

Yes. You shouldn't have to over-invest to test a concept. We offer a low MOQ of just 30 pieces per design. This is perfect for Patreon monthly rewards or testing a new character design at a convention before committing to a full production run.

Do the pins arrive ready to sell at my booth?

Absolutely. We know convention prep is stressful. We highly recommend our Custom Backing Cards service. We inspect, mount, and bag every pin for you. When your package arrives, you can put them straight onto your Artist Alley table or inventory shelves without any extra labor.

Do I retain full ownership of my artwork?

Yes. We act solely as your manufacturing partner, not a marketplace. You own the mold and all design rights. We will never sell your designs to other vendors or third parties. We treat your intellectual property with the same care as the physical product.
