Make us both money, and Piles and Piles of Fishes and Whales on Material



You make money and I make money:
I am often asked if you can order my designs on cloth via spoonflower (yes) then make something from it an sell it (of course).

Since I make money on the sale of cloth from spoonflower for my designs, then anything that make you want to buy more cloth works for me :0)

example: Jane buy 10 yards of Ribbon seals on purple (https://www.spoonflower.com/en/fabric/7132790-ribbon-seal-on-purple-by-combatfish) then makes 5 shirts using the cloth and sells them in her shop. I made my money on the 10 yards of cloth she bought, she makes her money selling the 5 shirts. We are both happy :0) Hopefully Jane then buys more cloth, to make more shirts, making me and her more money :0)

If you do decide to go that route fyi, Spoonflower has bulk pricing and Pro versions for small business owners...and grants too.
ex:
https://try.spoonflower.com/promos/
https://www.spoonflower.com/wholesale


so make us both rich LOL :0)
p.s.
Posted on the order of several dozen designs on spoonflower (https://www.spoonflower.com/profiles/combatfish )
Mostly fishes that have yet to be pushed to cloth and wallpaper, thus onto furniture and housewares.
In time to make cool gifts for all the fall and winter holidays.

Refresher: Where is all my art?


In addition to books (on amazon, look for my author page ),
my art is purchasable in these venues:



  • Offshore fish in action shop (Sharks, Tunas, Swordfish, Dorado, etc.)


  • Northern freshwater fishes including salmon, trout, walleye
  • If all that sounds confusing, there is a cool, pictorial catalog that has almost everything (some DBH, spoonflower patterns are not in it to avoid clutter): http://www.combat-fishing.com/DesignFishCafeCatalog.html

    More tuna etc.
    Look for deep ocean toothy fish like viperfish, dragonfish, and tuna in spoonflower in the next few weeks as I dig through what I have.

    Look for a variety of new cloth and house-ware designs on my spoon flower site (https://www.spoonflower.com/profiles/combatfish/). Been digging up all my sharks, tuna, rockfish, and ocean fish designs that have yet to be put in the spoonflower/roostery world, so they will pop in 30 at a time.

    Tight lines,

    Cloth, Wrap, wallpaper and such

    Hello fish art fans :0)

    I have started to scientifically analyze my pile of fish drawings and field them 30 at a time to my spoonflower presence at https://www.spoonflower.com/profiles/combatfish so anyone can buy them on wallpaper, cloth for clothing and decor, and wrapping paper (which can also end up as many decor items and projects).

    Latest adds include: Mekong giant catfish, mosasaurs, anglerfish, cod, hake, dunkleosteus, oarfish,
    coelacanth
    and one of my favorite fossil fish the
    Xiphactinus audax
     xiphactinus audax (too bad it is extinct, would have been a VERY interesting catch!) among several others.  Look for multiple versions, sizes, and abstractions of each species available in my store to add variety. Likely I will have a shirt and towels made of some of them.   My nieces and nephews like the wrapping paper, since the chop out each fish to use in play or to stick in scrap books and collages.

    Later and fair seas,
    Bryce

    Giant Carp (aka Giant Barb)
    Drew up a monster river fish from Southeast Asia I have wanted to do for a while: the Giant Carp also known as the Giant Barb. (scientifically (Catlocarpio siamensis) ). It is a endangered fish that gets to over 600lbs (300kg) and like grass carp lacks barbs, though has the typical coarse scales of most minnows (i.e. barbs and carps).  A full grown fish from Thailand or Cambodia would be as big as a motorcycle or subcompact car.

    Upgrades

    I redrew several fish over the break, including a redo of the Northern Pike, Muskellunge (Muskie) and Flag (Festivus) Cichlid (for Festivus of course LOL :0)
    Look for more as time passes.
    For those who missed it, I also drew up a Cymbospondulus sea going dinosaur a while back.

    Check the master catalog for updates to catch the latest.  Look for a few new books in 2019 too, including a kid's fish identification book.
    Later,
    Bryce
