An Enamel pin collection of large 3d, standard, and mini pins of Cryptids, and Fearsome Critters-a group of legendary creatures in the folklore and traditions of lumberjacks during the 19th and early 20th centuries in North America.
Pintopia is a backer led annual event with hundreds of artists coming together to show their projects. Namely pins! This year we are categorized in "Banners" which are groups of projects with a similar theme. We're the lead of the Lore and Myth Banner!
Come check out other Lore and Myth projects by clicking this link or image below!
Partnering with Mothman Ita bags for this event, if you back BOTH of these projects, you get BOTH of these 3in stickers for FREE!We thought it would be a perfect pair for our Cryptid pin project- and that you guys might like them too.
An artist, storyteller, and all-around creative, Tokii is the heart behind our designs. She has a history of winning 1st place in several art competitions, a Summa Cum Laude grad of SCAD, 4 time Texas gold seal medalist for VASE, a Disney Dreamer alumni, and has been featured in magazines for her art and volunteerism throughout the years. With a love for mythology, fantasy, and culture, she pours passion into every project-making sure each piece is more than just an accessory, but a tiny piece of a bigger story. She is the "Golden Goose" of CritCreations, a rabid workaholic who seems to have no limit.
Jacob - The Problem-Solver & "Goose Tamer" (Now full-time!)

Jacob’s had 13 years of project management for a small business and graduated top of his class in mathematics.

What We’re About
We believe in designs with depth-not just things that look cool, but pieces that hold meaning, tell a story, or make you feel something. Whether it's capturing the celestial magic of the zodiac, celebrating cultural myths, or crafting something that just makes people smile, our goal is to create things that matter. When we make pins, we hope they're more than just decorations, but conversation pieces to carry with you as you go.
We love connecting with people who appreciate art, creativity, and unique designs with a story behind them. Follow our journey to see what we’re working on next!
Now an official Vgen artist! A community dedicated to non-unethical-ai artists. Commissions for illustrations, and PNGtubers now open!
