Project Update: PIN ART UPDATE! 5 days left!

Hi all!

Time is flying! We're in the last week of the campaign.

I'm here with updated pin sketches for everything that got unlocked and most of what could still come!
All of the unlocked designs are available to order, and adding them to your pledge now will help to unlock the last few designs! Some people really want that harbor seal, you know.

Can't decide yet? It's no problem! The way backerkit works is that you can still easily alter your pledge until the campaign ends, and add on as many items from the add-on section as you like.
You don't have to choose your pins yet! This happens a little while after the campaign, when I send out backer surveys. I will also have more finished art at that time, as some of these designs are still very rough.


How to alter or add items to your pledge:

1) Go to your profile and click "Your pledges and Surveys"
2) Click "View pledge" next to the name of this campaign.
3) Click "Edit Pledge"
4) Here you can change your pledge level. An overview of all the pledge levels can be found here. New ones got added!
5) If you'd like to add more items from the add-on section, click "+Add additional items" right below. The overview of all add-ons can be found here.
6) Press 'Confirm your pledge'. Don't worry, you're only pledging once!

Now, on to an overview of everything that got unlocked in this campaign, and what's still left to come!


All the hyena-related items got unlocked!
I hope you love hyenas, but if they aren't your #1, there are now a whole bunch of other critters to choose from:


Since these are all unlocked, you don't actually have to back hyena pins specifically to get them!
With any of the 'X pins of choice' pledges you can pick from ANY unlocked pins.
Do make sure your pledge level still includes the green hyena freebie, if you were looking to grab that one!

I could offer a gold version of the African Canids set or other portrait pins, to match with the gold hyena set. Let me know if you're interested in these color variants, I'd need at least 10-20 people per pin design to make it viable.
If we reach 500 backers, ALL portrait pins will become available in gold!

Now, here's what we could still reach:

That binturong has a popcorn background, and I'd really love to make that! In fact, I'd be super happy if we make it all the way up to the seal! If you're interested in any of these, please consider pledging or adding to it, then it's definitely in reach!

If your favorite is not here and you REALLY want it, there are still slots available to pledge for a custom design! You get to choose the species, get a stack of these pins, and everyone will be able to order it as well.

Last but not least, there's the exclusive pins that will NOT be available after this campaign:

Go check out Challenge Coin Critters by Ken's Pin Hustle. Already did? Go look again! ALL of the stretch goals got unlocked and a whole bunch of new critters got added!
Just to name a few: Turkey vulture, crocodile, Coquerel's sifaka, shoebill..!
Plus, of course, aside from getting a free exclusive bonus pin from us, we might also be able to combine shipping. That will make a huge difference if you're backing me from the US, or CCC from the EU!



And since Ken's Pin Hustle is not only member but also supreme leader of PIN SAFARI, you only have to back ONE other campaign from this group of projects to get special large polaroid stickers from all three of us plus anyone else you back in Pin Safari!
There's 23 animal-themed campaigns to choose from, so go take a look!



These examples are just some personal favorties, but go find them in Pin Safari and check out the others too!



That's all for now!
Please help spread the word or pledge if you'd like to help the last few goals to get reached! Thank you so much.
