How To Design Your Very Own Merch Collection

PB and Jay sit down to celebrate the launch of a brand‑new Kaiju‑inspired collection, created in the middle of illness, deadlines and Anime Con prep. This episode dives deep into the creative and strategic process behind building a new series: why it exists, how the designs were chosen, what worked in the past, and how artists balance passion with what actually sells. From Luffy to Rudo to Gojo and Gato, this is a look at the thinking, planning and chaos behind bringing a full collection to life.Your HostsPB (aka Gilles) - https://www.instagram.com/gillesbone/J (aka Jay Bear) - https://www.instagram.com/ohheyitsjaybear/In This Episode- Launching the newest Kaiju parody collection- How illness, deadlines and Anime Con prep shaped the timeline- Why this series focuses on current anime favourites- The evolution of the Kaiju style: silhouettes, backgrounds, lettering and consistency- How audience behaviour and past sales influence future designs- Balancing “what I love” with “what people actually buy”- The importance of analysing what worked (and what didn’t) in previous releases- How to plan a collection around upcoming conventions- Prioritising designs, products and phased releases- The future of the Kaiju line, enamel pins and upcoming sticker collaborations- A practical framework for choosing which ideas to make nextSponsored ByDecal Empire : Premium custom stickers, prints and more.(Their support helps make this show possible.)Support the ShowExplore all our socials and more at https://theconcreatives.comLeave a five star review to help support the showGet behind the scenes content and extras at https://patreon.com/theconcreatives
