Highlights
Project Update: End of The Year Update!
This week we were updated on the status of our largest fulfillment project to date, with good news that we're finally at the point where inventory space for Indiginerds will be available shortly!
We expect Ingram to send the books to White Squirrel, who issues the packages to you, midway through the month of January. However we will also update again once we've received notice that shipments have actually begun for the sake of clarity. The rest of the add-on goodies are already there waiting, so once the books arrive work can get started on getting the physicals and the extra rewards out to you all.

I just got my pledge delivered, and I was asked to pay 23€ for the shipping. I know it's relatively not that much, but I already paid over 100€ already (for shipping only) and thought that that was all I had to pay. If that's not the case, may I ask a clarification on what those money were for?
Project Update: CLASSIC!
we're releasing a version of Cremisi #5 we've never released before — Cremisi #5 CLASSIC!
Classic?
When Cremisi #5 was being produced, I had originally planned to keep the book in the classic black, white, and crimson art style. As this was the end of the first arc, it was special to me. I wanted to celebrate finishing the first arc of my passion project by giving it a full-color send-off. (That and the budget for full color existed for the first time in the series' history.) Originally, the book was done in the classic style, but these pages were never released. All future issues of Cremisi will be done in the classic style.
Another major change was, as seen above, Renee being topless. This was removed in the full color version. I wasn't comfortable with Renee being presented in an adult manner as this did not make sense for her abrasive personality and extreme distrust of other people. I wanted the reader to feel Renee's hatred of not only others but for herself as well. Up until Rita appeared in SuccuBUSTED!, Renee had the biggest booty of any of my characters — something she hides with a jacket around her waist as she despises being ogled. In lieu of this, having her offer fanservice felt disingenuous to the character, so it was changed in the final version. This traditional variant of issue #5 still has those pre-edits. Sorry, Renee! The next arc of Cremisi will see Renee begin to get comfortable with both her own body and being around other people. Growth takes time, and Renee, like most of Cremisi's cast, needs time to conquer her own demons. As she grows and develops, she may become more comfortable with being perceived both clothed and unclothed. Love you, Renee!

Project Update: Funded and unlocked everything?!
We've unlocked EVERY achievement and it's not even been one complete day! THANK YOU so much for your support! We thought this Backerkit run would top out around 800 but we're nearly double that in a day.
More digital achievements (stretch goals?) will be arriving this week. Everyone who backed in the first 48 hours will receive the fox girls of Astral Ticket Comics winter hot spring FOXXY edition digital download. The SFW, if it could be called that, was the first achievement unlocked.
