Printful is a good resource but I caution... it can be a rabbit hole. Be focused with your products or your algorithm will be garbage - especially if you do social media advertising. The canvas prints are nice but I'd stay away from framed prints which aren't mounted well. Also, t-shirts can be tricky. This category is competitive and saturated. It's difficult to stand out unless you have as many followers as Slew. Also, because of sizes and colors, men, women, kids versions you end up a ton of variations. Also, your success can easily be killed if you can't finance the upfront costs. So start small, grow your audience and followers and when you have thousands Printful can be a good resource.
I liked how you talked about the math and symmetry behind your characters… nice video and I wish you a great holidays, christmas, stuff, you know, and all the best for 2023!
I think it's very smart to repurpose your favorite characters/subjects in lucrative ways; might as well make great use of our muses! I'm certainly excited to have merch of my art in the future, Happy Holidays/New Year, and thanks for the valuable info SLEW💯💕
Definitely recommend an airbrush, you'd thoroughly enjoy. I recommend an iwata eclipse gravity fed. Don't waste the time on the 20 dollar siphon fed ones, they're a headache.
When you tape the piece and cut away to paint the back ground, are you ever worried about creating cut marks on the piece or how do you avoid that? Just the proper amount of pressure or is there a trick?
Slew man! I love your videos. You’re one of my favorite TH-camrs here lately. It’s all been very informative. I have a super important question for you, so I hope you will answer it. I’ve been practicing my artwork for a few years and I’m getting to the point where I think I’d really like to make money with it (obv a great idea). I’m having trouble getting started with the idea of making money. I dig the idea of using the video sponsor, and then there’s the idea of making a website and selling prints\originals. But I don’t have a social following or a TH-cam channel. I don’t know how I would get customers. I don’t even know how common it is for people to buy art. Where are you making the most money? How could I start getting my artwork viewed? I need inspiration man I’m stuck in the mud!
Moon Elf Queen is so well done and beautiful. The original artwork is no longer available and was sold out. Unfortunately, I can't select her for my hoodie or stickers or anything else ... it's a very sad day here. But still love you Slew!!!
Yeah I use Printful for my art it is so easy and amazing to use. They have really high quality stuff and it is so easy to use I have it on my Instagram page I think it is really good for any up and coming artists. Also I love the new version of this character haha. Keep it up man
Just stumbled across this video, I freaking love it! First time coming across you, think I'm in love. I love the way you describe things and your art style is sick. Think I'll subscribe and stay awhile!!
I'm so glad I found your video. I was searching through TH-cam for something that I would enjoy watching along the artistic line and realized I had not seen any videos pop up for quite a while. Of course, that has nothing to do with whether or not you are creating content but rather the algorithm has for some reason decided that I didn't get to see your new videos show up. Is the tracing paper that you use the same as the standard carbon paper from back in the day? I have a curiosity question about the sponsor, since the products are created at the point of purchase is this something that could be done on a small scale without any official online presence or store. For example, could a family decide that they want to have their family crest put on t-shirts or if an artist wants to have a copy of their digital art on a t-shirt or sweatshirt for themselves, would this service be good option? Happy New Year. Thanks for continuing to share your talent with the rest of us. Blessings.
hello Slew!!! I,m from Brazil and I world like to know where you buy your canvas..? Nice vídeo!!!!!! happy holidays and happy new year!!!! Jah bless you and your family!!!!!
Thanks for the art and advice! I did check out your website but it looks like you only sell a tiny selection of merch and have no original art. I just say something in case there is a glitch there?
I love the color palette change. Your characters have to be one of my favorites, You even inspired me to do my own! I hope you have the time to go check mines out as well as my process and see what you think.
Printful recently dropped the organization "Gays Against Groomers" which is an LGBT-led nonprofit dedicated to protecting children from sexual grooming. I don't support Printful because of this, and I heard their quality is not great either.
GUYS! HAPPY HOLIDAYS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!
my most favorite hoodies and prints I've ever made

Happy Holidays to you too!! I love your artwork.
Not done the video yet, but I'm really happy we get to see you painting Slew!
That's a real lovely painting, works very well on the wood
Love the has the Princess Bubblegum bob she has going on 😍 Happy Holidays and New Years!
love your videos!!!!,they are so relaxing!!!!. merry christmas and happy holidays, keep making art :)
Def gotta do oil painted rendered out versions of your characters rather than the cartoon style would go so hard
You should do a sculpture of your favourite character
Moon Elf Queen is so well done and beautiful. The original artwork is no longer available and was sold out. Unfortunately, I can't select her for my hoodie or stickers or anything else ... it's a very sad day here. But still love you Slew!!!
Thanks for the info and the holiday wishes. Happy holidays 🤗💕
I feel like you need a dog or a couple of cats there with you. Happy holidays, I enjoy your work and space.
Awewome work !!! 😀❤

happy holidays and happy new year!!!! Jah bless you and your family!!!!!
ordered the hoodie the second it came out. i super excited for that one.
any chance to get the "hoodiehomie" retroactively ? haha
Awesome.
Good Quality
Whoever is reading this, never give up. God is with you ❤
Does printful print on sleeves and full garment, front and back? I'm looking for a site that does, kinda like Kiptoe's shirts.
Yup. They print on sleeves, front and back too, but the costs add up. If you plan on mass marketing I'd keep it simple.
Awesome 💥💥🚀🚀
Wow who is that beautiful little blob of a person working on her laptop behind you!!!!
very nice ❤️❤️

Have you looked into NFT’s ? I’m trying decide if I should look into it in the future. What do you think ?
Nice sweet hooray🎉
I love the color palette change. Your characters have to be one of my favorites, You even inspired me to do my own! I hope you have the time to go check mines out as well as my process and see what you think.
👍
When will you publish your NFT collection Slew, I'm tired of trash art from scam artist
He’s a walking ATM
Draw like a futurama xD
