Designer Guide
Everything you need to submit great by-request designs and earn.
Your work here is the product
There is no stock library behind this marketplace — clients come because independent designers draw things nobody else has. By-request work is a conversation: a client describes the piece they are dreaming about, you confirm it is in your hand, and the studio handles payment, file delivery and the client relationship so your hours go to drawing. The specs below are what make a design sell and print cleanly — read them before your first submission, and your work will go live faster.
Submission Specs
- Linework: clean black lines, JPG/PNG/WebP, max 15 MB per image.
- Color version optional but recommended — full-color designs sell better.
- Minimum 2000px on the longest side for crisp prints.
- No watermarks of your own on the art — the site applies its own.
- Original interpretations only — draw the character in YOUR style, never trace or copy existing art.
Style Requirements
- Tattoo-ready: bold readable shapes that work at tattoo size.
- Clean linework that a tattoo artist can stencil from.
- Your own artistic voice — clients pick designers for their style.
- No AI-generated submissions — hand-drawn or digitally painted by you.
How By-Request Works
The 300-character list is request-only. Designs you submit never appear in the public gallery — they become available when a customer requests that character.
Claim characters before someone else does:
- First come, first served — once claimed, no one else can do that character.
- Release a claim anytime if you change your mind.
- Submitting a design for a character auto-completes your claim.
Commissions
By-request designs earn a boosted rate: 80% of the sale goes to you (vs the standard 70%), funded from the site's share.
Payouts go to your PayPal once you're registered, subscribed, and your payout email is set.
