Surveys Going Out This Week!
Just touching base with everyone to let you all know that surveys are going out this this week!
Backerkit is VERY thorough, which is good! But I've had to cross a lot of T's ...
Thank you all so much for making this campaign a complete success!
The final week of the campaign I was so sick, I wanted to do more in that home stretch and have the collar pins finished, but was only able to sketch out a concept for you all. But since we'll be waiting for the funds to release before they're ordered there was still time to work on them.
I've finished the design and I'm SO happy with how it has turned out. I am speaking to my manufacturer about metal options. Because I'm intending to have the butterfly wings be stained glass and doing some screen printing, I am unsure if the rainbow metal will work out.
I may go with an antique gold or just silver if the rainbow/blue doesn't work out. I'll keep you all in the loop and as always love to hear feedback from y'all! I'm really vibing with the gold tbh. I received a question on the last day about how to order the set.
I also REALLY bumbled the "In All Timelines" design that last week. I was running a fever of 101 and really wanted something to show you guys. BUT I've redrawn it a couple of times and feel like I've gotten it to a good spot! Like with the collar pins, I'm trying for the rainbow metal, stained glass and screen printing, but it might not work out. That one will definitively be silver if the rainbow/blue doesn't work.
Additionally, because of the detail on this pin, it will probably end up having to be larger than my initial estimate of 1.5 inches, it will be closer to the 2.5" like Pit Fighter Vi. Do not worry friends, all original backers of the campaign will be able to select it from the 1.5" tier since that was my bad. For Pre-Orders and when I sell them in the future, they will be the same price as Pit Fighter Vi. The same may happen with the Collar Pins. Updates to come after I've heard back from my manufacturer.
As I said, we have a few weeks before the funds are released and I can get the pins ordered. During that time I will be building the backer surveys and they will be sent out by the end of February. Everyone will have roughly 2-3 weeks to fill them out. March is a VERY busy month for me, I have 3 conventions! But I built that into our timeline, here is a review of it for you folks.
Thank you all again for your support, I will keep you all updated as I receive proofs, mock ups, samples of our pins and anything in between.
We're having some color issues with a couple of the pins but MOST of them are in the final process of being completed!
I am actually surprised, we are having issues with Viktor's skin tone on the collar pins and the astral look on the In All Timelines pin.
Pending the next round I'm really hoping they'll be shipped to me in the next week or so. Then I can start grading them and start shipping after Denver Fan Expo in July! I'd LOVE to be able to have them for backers to pick up at that show if they're going. I'll keep you all posted as I know more on our timeline. ~Christa D
