Feb stickers and product WIPs!

Just a quick update on the February stickers!  Here they are~ I’ve been trying to think of a punny name for the sneks. Something to show that I’m aware that the snakes are locked up and thats part of joke 😅


Oh! Also i have some sneak peeks! Froggy charm ideas and a possible stretch goal for the plush bag kickstarter!

One more note, please be sure to check you addresses to make sure they’re correct!

February Sticker Sneak Peek!

Rough sketches of February’s sticker pack! 

Just some cute stickers for next month~ The animals featured will be ball pythons and an African clawed frog. I’m thinking that the space in the middle of the snakes would be cut out so you could stick it on a photo.

January Dinos !

Dino designs are complete! It looks like Velociraptor won the poll. Don’t let those derpy eyes fool you, she‘s still a clever girl! 

I’m going to start working on Feb’s stickers, so hopefully I’ll have WIP sketches up for those soon!

January Designs!

The theme for this month is more dinos! I’ve started working on two designs, a big sleepy Stegosaurus and my personal favorite dinosaur, the funky 2021 updated Spinosaurus.


For the third design I’ve left options for a voting poll!

November stickers: Leopard Geckos!

Hey guys! These will be posted publicly soon, but these are the designs for this month! As I mentioned on discord, I wanted to do ring necked snakes this month, but the designs just were not coming out right. I hope you all don’t mind the change too much! Someday I definitely do want to feature ring necked snakes, but it will have to be sometime in the future when I have the time to draw them prope...

October updates and sticker plans!

The tiger salamander is done but I’m still working on the second one (3 lined salamander!)  

Sorry for the slow sticker reveal and lack of posts, I’m in my last year of college and it’s really wearing me down. A lot of my time and creative energy has been going into my school projects as I try to finish up this last year of my illustration/concept art/visual development major. I will finish and ship out sticker sets before the end of the month as always, so no matter how busy...

Next month: Salamander with a Gun

I mentioned this on Discord, but basically I’m thinking that next month’s theme will be salamander with gun! Inspired a little bit by Rainylune’s frog with knife. I too crave violence lol 

Also, I‘m hoping to use these axolotls for something, though I‘m not quite sure what to do with them yet. Possible future reward maybe? 


And Frogwhale stickers will be goi...

Introducing Frog Whale!

Just some quick announcements:

This is frogwhale, he will be our theme for next month! An giant friendly amphibian~

Noot stickers (August sticker pack) will be sent out this week, so keep an eye out for them in your mailbox! 

Also, school has started for me, so unfortunately that means I wont be as active/post as much on patreon, but don’t worry, you’ll still get your stickers every month! I’ll still be posting memes and stuff on discord, so visit me there if...

Noot Stickers!

This month’s Noot Stickers! He is a good lad :> 

Also, we have integrated Discord, so if you link your discord to Patreon, you’ll have access to more wips, more frequent updates, faster responses from me, and a place to share memes and pet photos!

And finally, we have revamped the derptiles store to its own website (before it was combined with my other “brand”).  The store isn’t open to the public yet and its still a work in progress at the moment, but y...

August Stickers & Discord Link

Winning the poll by a complete landslide of 1 vote, August’s stickers will feature Noot, the clumsy but cute newt! But since a lot of you wanted Frogwhale (or both), the following month (September’s) theme will be Frogwhale, so please look forward to seeng him too!


Aaaaaand we now have a discord! Feel free to stop by and introduce your pets, talk about animal things, share memes,...

Next month’s stickers?

July's ending soon and stickers are being sent out, so what should we have for August? I was thinking that we could either have stickers of Noot, stickers of Frogwhale, or our usual animal themed stickers, which would you guys prefer?

This is Noot, he is a California/Rough skin newt! He’s the same newt as that sticker thats been on the back of the sticker club envelopes lately.

Request a gecko! And ... Discord?

Edit: I forgot to post the completed pictures of July’s stickers here! So here they are, a crestie, and day gecko, and a melon!


Since this month is arboreal gecko themed, please feel free to request a gecko! The last time I did requests, I was asked to draw alot of terrestrial geckos, so felt that it was only fair that we do a round of arboreal geckos. Just leave a comment with the species of your requested geck. 


Also, how would you guys feel abou...

July is Hot Geck Summer

It’s really hot and it’s summer here in California, so this month the theme is Hot Geck Summer! The sticker set will consist of 1 day gecko, 1 crested gecko, and 1 slice of melon. When you guys get these geckos, you can stick them on things to make it look like they’re licking the melon, or something else! 

And last month’s Funky Frogs havebeen shipped, so you should all get them soon!

Finally, if you stick your stickers somewhere, please tag or dm me on Instagram so ...

June sticker WIPs!

This month is funky frog month 🐸 The stickers will be Budgett’s Frog and Pipa Pipa (aka Suriname Toad).

Also I randomly came up with another backpack idea, this time a pigeon! Lol my family says i pick the weirdest animals for these backpack ideas, but i think the derpy “trash”animals deserve some love too!

May Stickers!

This month, in honor of amphibia week (and my birthday) the theme is Salamanders!

We have the Eastern Newt and the Axolotl. I was going to also have the Japanese Giant Salamander, but I couldn’t get the line art right. If you guys would like the Giant Salamander, let me know and I’ll keep working on it!

April stickers are being sent out!

Sorry for not posting much on here, its getting close to finals and I have a lot of stuff to work on!  Anyway, I drew this little tort on the cards for April and I really liked how he turned out so I drew some more of him.

You guys also might have noticed that we changed envelopes! It was taking a long time to make each envelope so we ended up buying some craft paper envelopes to use instead! They are much more sturdy compared to out handmade envelopes haha.

The stickers for April are cherry headed tortoise and red earred slider! I did a bunch of random turtle drawings while trying to decide which ones to pick.  🍒🐢🍔🐢

Salamander Isekai Squad!

Hey guys! I hope you're all doing well! 

I colored the salamander squad. I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to animate them, but I thought it would be fun to see them fully fleshed out. 

Also, April’s theme will be.... Turtles and Tortoises!

March Stickers! (Wip)

Derpy Dinos! I decided to go with the classic Long Neck & Sharp Tooth dinos for this month because there are so many  iconic dinosaurs that it makes it really tough to choose! I think in the future we definitely need more dino stickers 🦖🦕

Vote on Frog Bag!

The manufacturer has taken pictures of the Frog Bag prototype. I'm definitely going to make some changes on the eyes, since they're way too high up on the head, but I'm not sure if I should ask for the eyes to be bigger or not. I've made some rough photoshopped versions to test out eye size/placement. 

Here's what the bag looks like unmodified vs 1. the eyes moved down vs 2. the eyes moved down and a little bit bigger. Please vote to help me figure out which version looks best! &nb...

Wow, March Already!

And as for March, the theme for this month will be Dinosaurs! I drew the prehistoric salamander Diplocaulus as a teaser since t...

February Stickers!

Hey guys! For this month, if you would rather have the Valentine’s  Day stickers instead of February’s Monthly Sticker Pack (”Spicy“ stickers lol)  please send me a message! I understand that not everyone has the same sense of humor that I have, so I though it would be fair to offer an alternative! 

if you prefer the Valentine’s Day Cards, let me know asap so I can try to send them out in time for Valentine’s Day! Please remember to tell me which two card desi...

February Stickers, too spicy....?

Hello dear Patrons, 

Today I have an important question to ask in regards to our Feb monthly sticker pack :

 Are these stickers too spicy for this wholesome sticker club? 

I know I have a weird sense of humor, so if these make you uncomfortable or anything please let me know!

Jan 2021: Geckos!

This month is African Fat Tail Gecko Month! Well, according to me it is lol

I’ll be posting these guys publicly soon, but I wanted to post them here first. For this year I’m going to try to have the monthly stickers completed and posted before their month starts, so February’s stickers will be posted here soon too. 

Also, the sticker packs for November and December will be shipped this week! I think the post office bustle has calmed down enough for the sticker club enve...

A thought...

Possible stretch goal for the Opossum bag kickstarter : fluffy frog bag??? Similar shape/idea as possum, with the same type of fuzzy fabric. Do you think it would be too weird to have a frog thing have that sort of furry fluffy texture? Its just an idea for a possible stretch goal and I thought it might be cute !


if possum is funded and this option is unlocked i can imagine that the tier for two bags (both possum and frog) could be the ”Meme Team” tier lol

Happy Holidays!

Wow, can you believe the year is almost over? It’s been quite a ride.

 We finally got some ink, so November and December stickers are being printed, cut, and packaged! However, the postal service had been crazy overloaded this month, so we will hold off a bit before shipping the stickers out. I’m sorry for the long wait, but I think it will be easier on our mail people and safer for the stickers!

Also here’s a picture of my family’s beardie Syd, just because haha...

WIP for December stickers!

Progress so far on this month’s stickers. I’ve been busy with finals so I havent been able to work on these guys as much as I‘d like. Ball python with hot chocolate is done, just gotta finish hognose with tea~ We still haven’t received our ink, but I will be sure to let you guys know when it arrives !

Bad News and Good News

Bad News first, our printer has run out red ink is printing hulk skonks. So November Stickers will be arriving a little bit late.

Its the type of printer that has a special service where the company is supposed to send new ink cartridges when the printer gets low. Unfortunately they didn’t automatically send us the red cartridge so we had to manually request it online. The printer isn’t compatible with store bought inks, so now we just have to wait for the new cartridge to arriv...
