ABOUT US!  

We are Goodbye, Gator! A small, queer owned-and-operated art and design business specializing in handmade goods! We love to create stickers, lifestyle goods, plush toys, and accessories for costumes and fursuits, letting our own niche interests guide our hands.We’re a two person operation, made up of Mason (day-to-day operations, sewing) and Alec (art and design), based on the west coast. Established in 2024, Goodbye, Gator! is bright eyed and bushy tailed, going for a more experimental and trial-and-error based method development -- this means a lot of our stuff is either fully one-of-a-kind, or produced in very small and limited batches right here in our home by our own hands!This is our portfolio website where you can find our work, as well as our commission information and contact info for partnerships and convention opportunities.

  MASON  

Hi!! I'm Mason, the crocodilian-obsessed crafter responsible for the fiber arts side of the business. I love embroidery and plush making almost as much as I love sharing fun alligator facts.

  ALEC  

Hi! I'm Alec, Goodbye, Gator!'s resident artist and designer, usually getting pestered into drawing by Mason who is definitely not ghost writing this for me right now.

PORTFOLIO

Here you can find our portfolio of completed commissions, personal projects, and a selection of our typically available store stock! Our Etsy may occasionally go on break to better suit our schedules, but this page will always be here to give you an example of our work and our styles.

  20cm Human Dolls  

20 cm human dolls are made from short, 1mm minky (skin) and plush 3-5mm minky (hair). They feature posable plastic skeleton systems to allow them to move. They feature custom embroidered faces. They are built using a base pattern from MonPattern, made right here by hand in our home!

  20cm Anthro Dolls  

20 cm anthro dolls are made from plush 3-5mm minky and feature posable plastic skeletons to allow them to move their limbs. They have weighted legs to help them stand, but each certain designs may struggle depending on their proportions. Each doll features fully custom face and body embroidery. They are built using a base pattern modified from SylenisCrafts, made individually right here at home by us!

  Large Plush  

Large plush dolls stand anywhere from 8 to 14 inches tall and have fully custom embroidered faces and features. Each doll is different and customized to its unique design! They are all made by us, right here at home!

  Plush Bag Charms & Beanies  

Our plush bag charms are fully handmade in-the-hoop embroidered accessories and plushies! Sizes and specifications very between designs.

  Keychains, Pins & Stickers  

We sometimes partner with outside vendors to create things like enamel pins and acrylic charms! We also use a combination of both in-home printing and laminating for stickers, as well as outside vendors to achieve certain sizes and effects.

  Fursuit Accessories  

Our spiked fursuit collars and cuffs are made completely by hand using 3D printed spikes and washers we modeled and engineered in Blender on custom sewn collar bases that feature fabric-encased webbing for extra durability.

  Art & Design  

We also love to do digital art and design for things like badges, icons, and character references!
