WTS: Sprite Charms

**Cream Soda** · 2009-11-15 13:17

I'm looking to sell sprite charms of 8-bit and 16-bit characters.

These take 2-4 hrs depending on the size/shape of the charm in labor(and the beads aren't cheap to have a large variety in color), so I'm looking to charge $20-25 per charm.

Here are some samples of my work

Spoiler: show

You can choose from sprites I've already made necklaces of (as I 100% have the colors for them) or you can request some work by posting sprites here and inquiring, at which point I will be able to tell you whether I'd be able to make it or not. Before making your charm, I will go through each of the individual colors I will use to represent each type of pixel to make sure that they are acceptable. (for example I have 4 diff shades of pink so if I don't have a particular one, you can choose between the 4 I have as a substitute).

Perler beads are not the most sturdy of equipment, so I will add a two week warranty from the date I ship. If these come apart by natural wear/tear then I will be happy to either
A) Teach you how to repair (it is simple)
B) Repair it for you (if ship to me I will repair and ship back to you. You pay to ship to me I pay to ship back)
C) In extreme cases, (like a total fk up on my part in making to where it falls apart, which I won't do, but just in case), I will make a new one from scratch and send to you.

If you choose, you can add an additional week to the warranty for $5.

The warranty covers natural wear/tear and does not include direct negligence (I've broken a few of these on my own, and in my when i was still learning to make these have had a few come apart due to natural wear, so I know the diff between a small section coming off and the thing snapping in half).

You are purchasing only the charm itself, and the ring I will add (to make it able to become a necklace by sliding a chain in it). You can either get a chain that you already have to slide it in, or I can run to the store and charge $5 to include the chain. (They are 3 bucks and some change at the store and its a 20 min bike ride from my house, so the extra 2 bucks covers my 40 mins of bike riding).

Shipping: $2-3 tops. I've sent one of these to Singapore from US and it cost me less than 5. I will ship out of country as well, but those will be closer to $5 for shipping rather than 2-3.

Pricing
29 beads H x 29 beads L or less: $20
Either Height or Length exceeding 29 beads: $25
I will be able to tell you how many beads high/long prior to making the charm

[b]Chain(Size/style of the one in the moogle picture)[b]: $5

Shipping: $2-5 (depending on location, I will ship anywhere, not just US)

Extended Warranty: $5 (increases the included two week warranty to three weeks)

Requests can be made here or in P.M. If you have a sprite you'd like to ask about, just post here or PM and I will be able to tell you if I can do it.

Taking two orders max at a time (as these take a while and I do have other things to do)

I want a steak dinner soon and the place is fancy, so looking to sell a few of these, lol.

Awesome work though Vegetto, if I had the room in my house for that I'd so do it.

It looks like the 8-bit hopped out of the actual game.
I like it, show me a Mega man!

**Flattus** · 2009-11-15 15:17

Ooh, thats awesome

**Corrderio** · 2009-11-15 15:18

Hey Cream, what image program do you use for the grid?

**Cream Soda** · 2009-11-15 15:36

MS paint. Blow it up to 800% CTRL + G for grid

**Corrderio** · 2009-11-15 15:46

Sweet thanks. I always wanted to try these with a different twist. Get a few wood cube blocks then glue them together and try to make a wooden sprite. I found a site but most of them are still fairly big.

Wonder if I could find any small cubes at a hobby shop or preschool store....

**Cream Soda** · 2009-11-15 15:52

Kinda like this?

**Corrderio** · 2009-11-15 16:00

Yeah, those are pretty fun to do. Long to do mostly because of waiting for paint/glue to dry, but still fun.

Buckethead, hit me up w/ the address. I'll prolly make it tonight and send it out tomorrow. Can do the payment whenever since I know you and shit.

**Cream Soda** · 2009-12-03 17:12

hmm run into a prob, lol have never been the receiver of an online transaction

**Kaisha** · 2009-12-03 21:59

Could always open up a PayPal account and eat the % they take out of every transaction to you.

**Cream Soda** · 2009-12-03 22:04

I have a paypal account, just don't have anything that I can link it to to get the money from paypal to me, lol

Paypal has an option to withdraw funds in the form of a check. Looks like they charge 1.50 for this service. From the main page, select Withdraw -> Request a Check.
