Hi all! Since we are just hours away from the project's end, I'm trying to plan for the estimated funds I'll receive once the project ends!
Right now I really want to be abl...
Hello everyone! I'm super excited to bring you all an updates with photos of some of the samples! These are just the first iteration and need a bit of work to make them fit my vision, but they're a great start.
🎀 YOUR FEEDBACK IS WELCOME! Comment below 🎀
Sakura the Cat
I'd like to change Sakura's face to make it a bit closer to my drawing. This includes moving her eyes up and making her muzzle a bit smaller. I also want to adjust some of the embroider on her face and lighten the color of her paws!
Clover the Rabbit
Clover needs a bit more work. I would like to adjust the color of the brown in his fur to make it a bit darker, as well as slightly adjust the shape of his face and head. His outfit also needs work, as its not the correct color and the details on it look as if they were drawn on, which was not the intended look.
Here are some photos of them bare!
Additional Outfits
This pink jacket needs a little work. I intended the lines on it to look a bit more like fabric ribbing rather than literal lines.
The frog pouch outfit is super cute and I don't really have many issues! It isn't visible in this image, but there is a zipper on the back of the pouch so that it's fully functional as a bag.
Shoulder Pals
The shoulder pals are looking great and only need minor edits! Other than slightly adjusting the faces, I'd like to see if we can get the bodies to be just a bit less stiff and more floppy.
Thank you all for your patience! I've been working hard behind the scenes with my manufacturer to get these plushies looking their best for you. I'll be back when I have more to show!
Hi all! Just a brief reminder to fill out your survey if you have not already done so. We have about 80% completed, but the remaining 20% need to fill out information including shipping info, pledge choices, and add-ons.
If you've already fill out your survey, you're set! You can make changes to your order until they're locked, and will receive an email before that occurs.
Hey all! Now that the survey has been approved, I'm going to send the smoke test out. This means that surveys will go out to 5% of backers and show me if there are any issues with the survey process.
If all goes well, the remaining 95% of the surveys will go out tomorrow!
Preorder Store
The Preorder store is open! Any items from the campaign as well as many other items can be added to your order. Please note that any items added on or preordered from the store will ship when the campaign orders go out (approximately August 2026).
If you have a failed payment, please sort out the error as soon as possible. If it's still not sorted out by the time you receive your survey,, you'll have another chance to fix it then.
Thank you all SO MUCH for making this project a success. Though we couldn't fund every stretch goal, we funded most of the project's goals, and I'm very grateful for that.
What's next?
⭐ In the coming week, surveys will be sent out via email. You will be able to choose the specifics of what you've pledged for (i.e. which plushies, pins, etc you want), as well as add on more items to your order.
⭐ Over the next 2 weeks you will be charged for your pledge amount. This will come out of your accounts automatically but if your card fails you will be notified via email. You can fix your payment and update it to a different card if needed.
I will keep you all updated as the production process and such move forward so you all have an idea of the timeline and when things might be shipping out! For now, sit tight for those surveys!
