Shark Wyrm is now a pledge level!
im so impressed by the amount of people who want a gummy shark!!! although i am still hoping we reach the optimal funding goal for this plush (which would be 12.5k) i am addi...
as promised, my manu got these samples done as soon as possible! and here are pics of all of the color ways! the tail of the shark needed one fix so it took a few extra days to wait for that edit even though the rest were finished, i just wanted to make sure all the samples were viewable at the same time! The fabric of the shark is temperamental to the lighting in the room, so some angles or parts of the blue looks darker than it actually is, i promise the blue is correct! XD looks like since the blue isnt part of the printed spots, it is a bit softer than the standard plushies too!
this is the more accurate lighting to show the blue color
i thought it was really funny how they were holding them LOL
as for the surveys, they are completed on my end and are just waiting for approval! so they will be sent tomorrow or the next day! i will make another announcement when everyones surveys get officially sent! i will be waiting around 5 days for the smoke tests to be filled out before sending them to everyone!
i will be ordering bulk of the sour variants now as well, so production and arrival to me will be around 1.5-2 months! i am still waiting for enough funds to get sent to me due to the pay over time backers, i am still waiting for just under $3k to be sent so i cant bulk order the sharks until more is paid out. but dont worry, they wont be too far behind the rest of the wyrms! the rest of the survey unlocked plushies will also need to wait until i charge cards later to get the funding for those sent to me, so the pink wyrm and any mini wyrms that get added to surveys will also be behind in production. that just means some orders will be sent sooner than others depending on what plushies are in them!
A slightly bad news update, but still a progress update!
So unfortunately my manufacturer has had a bit of a problem with their fabric production side of their factory, specifically the shortage of raw materials to keep up with fabric production. So the samples will be taking a little longer to finish than expected (since the spotted fabric is very specifically designed for me). But they are still working as they can on them! Here’s the embroidery progress I was sent!
Looks like I may have to get that fabric on the gummy sharks changed XD oh dear
So I still await the samples getting done to be able to send the surveys out!
I did finish the blanket designs and the pin designs though!
The blankets will be front and back printed, the gummy sharks will have two different designs on each side, while the regular wyrms will have the same design on both sides
I am still setting up surveys, but since I’m still waiting for the other samples to be done beforehand I’m not in a rush! My manufacturer just messaged me saying they’re back in the shop and plan to have these samples out within a week! <3
Remember to check if you have a failed payment! Just over $600 are failed payments! This doesn’t include the pay over time people dw!
Here is the current pinky shark that will be open for stretch goal unlocks in the survey! (They will be separate from the shark add on during the campaign)
The eye color may change!
As for the other items planned for the survey extra unlocks, I am showing the current progress! They’re just sketches at the moment but I still wanted to share the progress!
These two are the blanket designs! One regular wyrms and the other will be shark wyrms!
These will be both the matching acrylic pins for both of the shark wyrms! (Top will be pink, bottom will be blue)
just under 24 hours left in this campaign!! thank you to everyone who has backed so far!
my manufacturer said they will all be back at work this saturday, so they'll be on the other samples starting then! i will try to get the survey out after the samples are done to make sure you guys can see them all before making your decision! i have confidence in my manu so I'm not worried about them looking any different from my artwork! (they've done so well so far, considering there's a limitation on fabric color!)
also just a thing i have noticed, guess this doesn't matter to much to you backers at the moment? but there were a lot of suspicious cancelled pledges that were all the same- pledging for one item and giving double amount in "extra support" then cancelling their pledge a few days later, usually all on the same day? it gets weird by driving up hope for funding goals just to rug pull nearly 1k in one day? i heard from another creator that there were issues with suspicious accounts doing that during pintopia this year so i suspect thats what happened here? i completely understand needing to cancel for any reason, no questions! Just these weird pledges just got me confused?? if any of you have other ideas or have noticed stuff like that yourself id love to hear what you have!
we are now in the last week! thank you all so much for the amount of support so far!! im truly amazed by how many plushies are being adopted~! especially the gummy shark!! i will definitely be adding another color way (the pink one!) to the survey as a "pledge to unlock" for more lovelies added to the roster!
if anyone is thinking about backing and hasnt yet, you still have a few days! but it will be ending soon!
reminder that all four flavors and the first color of the shark are available to order! in case some may be confused about how i originally planned the stretch goals to be!
speaking of other pledge to unlock items that i have planned for the survey:\ - gummy shark pink version - blanket - mini wyrms of each flavor
other news, i ordered the other samples of the remaining colors and the shark literally the day before my manu went on a 3 week break for CNY! oopsies, bad timing on my part sorry! but they said they would get on it as soon as possible when they come back from break! hopefully with still enough time to show before the surveys go out to everyone!
