✦ SHIPPING COSTS ✦

...Will be collected after the campaign is over! Almost all items have been ordered and printed previously, so they will be calculated on a per-order basis for the entire pledge's package weight.

Estimated Shipping Costs: Most pledges shipping to the US should be around $5 - $10+, international can cost anywhere from $15 to $30+. Heavier orders will have a slightly higher shipping fee, but they will be calculated to the lowest price for both delivering the items and estimated cost of supplies per order.

Please see the Project FAQ regarding any further shipping questions and for the countries I will be shipping to.

✦ ABOUT THE ARTIST ✦


I'm Aero, a non-binary asexual autistic BIPOC artist who loves drawing men and monsters in a myriad of forms - most notably comic books and tarot cards! I am the sole creator and artist of my projects and do all the art and writing myself.

My hobbies include reading and playing video games - I like JRPGs the most!

I make NSFW and SFW art, including comics, tarot cards, art prints, vinyl stickers and much more. My artwork has been featured in professional and indie comics, anthologies, at conventions, and in my own independently published works.
Edit

✦ THANK YOU! ✦

Thank you for taking the time to look at my project! Crowdfunding has allowed my dream of making all kinds of art to become a reality, and I'm happy that so many people have expressed how important these creations are to them as well.

By backing these decks, you are contributing to a lot of peoples' happiness, by bringing to life unique pieces of art that celebrate diversity and variety in gender presentation and individual expression :)

This was a labor of love, and I have imbued it with the good energies that have kept me going through hard times - I hope you enjoy The Starry Knight Tarot Deck and my other card decks through your many adventures in the future~
