You will not be charged if we don’t reach our base funding goal of $1000 by the end of campaign time. The higher the amount raised, the more rewards you can choose from. Work together with fellow pledgers and friends to unlock more pins and items!
Hey there! It’s Taijey of Tai Toon Studios; a cartoonist and illustrator specializing in the wacky and zany. I’ve sold many stickers, buttons, and pins online since 2020 and have been illustrating since 2010. My previous project, Toon Can Do, was part of Pintopia 2025 and was a success. I’m excited to run another project with Pintopia!
Tai Toon Studios was established as my own business in April of 2017. I wanted to push myself further to create and do more with my art (as well as put more cartoons in the world).
Here are some of the products I’ve made over the years.
We do not endorse the use of AI in any of our art or products. All of our art is created by hand from sketch to completion.
This rodent will have your back no matter how tough the challenge!
An adaptable and loyal friend.
Everyone needs a lil mischief in their life (an additional Pay Day doesn't sound too bad either).
Free this cold critter that will warm its way into your heart! Mini Pin--Free for All Physical Backers
The ever-popular and ever loyal canine is ready to battle side by side.
Don't mind its grumpy-looking frown. This lil one is eager to join in on your adventure!
----- I’m still working on additional pins if y’all manage to catch your way through the existing reward goals. Ideas will be put in polls throughout the campaign.
We are collaborating with the lovely Chely Penn and their project Fairies of Spring!
When you pledge to both projects at a physical item level, you’ll receive a keychain from Inkwell-mon and a keychain from Fairies of Spring! Flower Bulldog Keychain will not be available outside of this collab so maximize your freebies~
We're also part of the Game Over Crew! Feel free to check out Fairies of Spring and the other campaigns in our group under the Game Over Tab!
There's even more freebies to be caught! Chely and I are both part of the "Game Over" banner!
So what does that mean for you? Well when you back at a physical item level for any 3 (or more) campaigns that have the Game Over tag, you'll receive a free exclusive sticker from each supported campaign.
You can support me, Chely, and another Game Over projects and receive our 3 respective stickers OR Chely and 2 other Game Over projects and receive their respective stickers OR support all of the different campaigns you like (3+) and receive all of their stickers!
Don't see a Catchable that you're interested in? Want a set to distribute as you please?
You can choose a Mon to be Inkwelled! You’ll receive 25 copies of the pin and others will be able to add the pin to their pledge after the campaign.
Pin will be:
Black Nickel or Silver Plating
Greyscale coloration
1.5 inch headshot
Pledge under the Sponsor-A-Mon tier, and TaiToonStudios will reach out about your design!
This is eligible for pay over time; please note that if you are unable to make the payments on time, your sponsored design may be pulled from the manufacturer queue until the slot is paid in full.
Shipping will be charged after the campaign on an individual basis to keep costs as low as possible and fair for everyone. Backers outside of the US are responsible for all VAT fees. All Backerkit surveys will charge shipping based on your mailing address.
Shipping will be calculated and collected after the campaign through the Pledge Manager
Within the United States: $5-$20 Outside of the United States: $10-$50
These prices depend on the size of the packaging needed for your order.
I'm shipping from Texas, so my outbound locations are limited due to licensing requirements and strict import/export laws.
I cannot cover any import fees as these are NOT collected through the campaign; backers will need to cover their own import fees so please preorder at your own discretion.
Countries I currently cannot ship to are:
Afghanistan
Belarus
Brunei Darussalam
Central African Republic
Cuba
Gaza Strip
Laos
Lebanon
Myanmar
Niue
Russian Federation
Singapore
Syrian Arab Republic
Ukraine
Yemen
I cannot do local pickup at this time.
With our campaign's end timeframe, we expect our schedule to go as follows. Some changes can occur.
February: Backers are Charged March-April: Surveys are sent out. Please check your emails (on rare occasions, surveys are sent to spam for reasons beyond my control). May: Surveys close, and I begin sending information to my manufacturer. July: Pins will hopefully start shipping to me. August: Quality Check; if there are any errors, I'll need about a month to reorder any incorrect items. September: Shipping begins.
We have Pay Over Time available for pledges over $150. After you select a pledge and go to Checkout, you'll be given the option to pay 4 equal interest-free monthly installments of your pledge total over 4 months.
In selecting Pay Over Time, you acknowledge that:
You understand that your rewards will not qualify for shipment until you have paid in full.
You understand that any partial payments made are not eligible for a refund.
You understand that you will not have access to your pledge survey until after you have paid for your pledge in full. Thus you will not be able to select your items in the survey until their payment plan is complete.
