The Idea
Kushers are extremely customizable products. We will be a website that provides entertainment through unique hand drawn products that are actually producible and shippable upon order. Artists will \make commissions and we hope to provide channels dedicated to fund social causes through art purchases and art creation.
How are we different from other custom product websites?
1. We try to be a form of entertainment. A blog of doodles, drawings, art, ideas and expression. Entertainment for every taste where matters of the art come first, always.
2. All our products allow any color almost anywhere on the product.
3. Each product can be further customized using a product as a 'template'.
4. We want to be a vibrant community for art of all sorts ('good' or 'bad').
5. Products are made on order. We don't judge whether a product is worthy of being sold or receiving commissions. The drawback is that some products can take a while to be created and shipped out.
6. You don't need fancy imaging software to create something. Our creation tool, dubbed 'The Creator', provides the most fundamental elements of drawing right on the website!
7. We do not allow photo uploads. There are enough sites that let you do that. This ensures that even the most detailed image was created from scratch!
8. We aren't a producer ourselves. We tie up with companies that have the ability to create such products and help expose them to a global demand.
9. Artists get commissions when their art is used as a template. So expect great ideas for every occasion!
