You have such amazing talent. You mentioned that you're having some money problems, I'm guessing that means you're not bringing much revenue based on what you're doing? Would you mind posting what your current strategy is? There are a lot of knowledgeable people on TL and I bet some may be willing to help in giving you ideas on how you can better get your business out there and thus bring in more revenue.

For example;

1. http://www.kickstarter.com/ They love this kind of stuff. I did a quick seach and couldn't find anything similar to what you do, which is great. If you need a few grand for working capital they're great at providing that.

2. Have you contacted Blizzard? Your stuff would be great at conventions like Blizzcon.

3. I had a look at the websites linked in your profile. I don't think you should post prices. Especially things like "Starting at $35", "As low as $75.00 !!".
What you make are works of art. Low prices should not be the thing that attracts people. Your work does that. People have no idea what a giant "Yoda" should cost.
Just like if you walk through a museum and see a painting, most likely you have no idea how much its worth. But if theres a tag next to it that says "TAKE THIS HOME FOR THE LOW LOW PRICE OF $50", I bet you not only will no one buy it, they'll also think less of the painting.


That's all I've got now. I'm sure others will come up with much better ideas than I have. I hope it helps.
