It's survey time! All the surveys have been sent out today so if you haven't filled yours in yet, go and pick your pins! :D While you're there; I've decided to add the now-finished Sleipnir pin to the survey add-ons as a stretch goal! We need 20 orders to fund him and we've got 9 so far so we're almost there! XD If you backed the tip tier or didn't back this project you can still grab one of these via the pre-order store! ;)
Check out the finished design:
Sleipnir
Our majestic 8-legged friend will be 2.5" wide and I'm thinking about using white glitter to make him extra magical! What do you think? :D
A quick little update today because I've been working on an additional pin design for Sleipnir (the 8-legged child of Loki, who pulls Odin's chariot!) Here's what I've got down so far: I need to do a bit more work on the back legs I think, and then I can colour him. I'm debating pearly white enamel. 🤔
I've been a bit quiet on this campaign because I've been moving house but I'm really excited to be most of the way unpacked into my new flat so I can focus on the Bestiary again! 🙌👀
I am keen to make the whole set of existing designs for this collection so I've decided to reduce my base order amount of each pin so that I can unlock the Equicervus and Hippocamp pins for you right away.
So you can now back for all 5 Horsing About pins!! Here's a reminder of all of the designs so far:
Hippocamp pin
Equicervus pin
Centaur pin
Kelpie pin
Pegasus pin
I also wanted to remind you all that this campaign is part of the Pin Quest project! That means that if you back this campaign and two others from the collection, you will get a free mini pin from ALL THREE creators! My Pin Quest gift is the Mari Lwyd mask 1.5" pin: Check out the Pin Quest collection page to browse other campaigns to back!
I'm excited to share that yesterday we unlocked the Centaur pin! XD
Centaur Pin
Next up for funding is Equicervus:
Equicervus pin
The Equicervus is a little known and elusive creature but can be found in a few Medieval Bestiaries and it's name literally means 'horse-stag'. It is said to be found in Greece or the East, has neck hair like a horse and a beard on its chin, split hooves, and the antlers of a stag!
I hope you like this little guy! He's my favourite of the designs so far. :D
Which of the two not-yet-unlocked designs is your favourite: Equicervus or Hippocamp?
