Hey everybody! Hope you're all doing well... it's that usual time during a campaign where we're just focused on getting all the cool things we want to make finalized with manufacturers so you can see them before the end!
IMPORTANT NOTICE
Just want to let you all know I may be MIA for a few days/a week on responding to comments/questions. I have a surgery on May 7th. Don't worry! It's a planned one that will hopefully lead to some major quality of life improvements for myself. But it is considered a major one so there will be some recovery time.
I will still be communicating with manufacturers as best as possible. I do not anticipate this causing any delays for the project! But I have people to help if needed!
HATCHLING SAMPLES
Our manufacturer for the Hip Hatchlings is already working on new samples! They've sent some early print photos I wanna share with you all. These are just the front panels so I'll show the whole bag once they're here!
We've also adjusted a couple things for the Hatchlings: - The open inside pocket is going to be made a bit larger and be given a zipper. Upon testing out the bags I found that pocket as was let things fall out easily, hopefully solved that!
- There will be TWO available strap sizes, short and long. SHORT: waist 15-30 inches, thigh 6-12 inches LONG: waist 30-60 inches, thigh 15-30 inches For the campaign backers will be able to choose which strap is included with your Hip Hatchlings.
Note that these Hatchlings are STRETCH GOALS and those must be reached in order for us to fund full production on them.
Galaxy - which will have metallic silver spots
Pumpkin
Silver - I may still adjust the blue gradient printing
Skeleton
Dracolich
Now for Dracolich we ran into an issue where the UV printing was coming off this material very easily. So the manufacturer is attempting a heat transfer technique. I've also adjusted the artwork they're printing with so the horns and talons aren't so boring:
DRAGON EGG ENAMEL PINS
One of our possible stretch goals is the Dragon Egg enamel pins! Here they are in existence! I'm also still looking to do a campaign exclusive design since I left them available to order before the goal was unlocked. More on that later!
Fire
Earth
Water
Wind
I think that is all for now! Thank you everyone for helping make the Hip Hatchling a success - now let's unlock all those stretch goals!!
