Project Update: ☆ Previews ☆
FACTORY SNEAK PEEK
I'm so glad I caved and ordered the orange ones too. The factory really understood the brief with these, they look fabulous.
Okay! First lot of pins that have arrived;
Cyerce Nigricans. Top is the alt version, bottom is the default version. The dual plating did not work out, so we have hard enamel with a screen print effect.
Bonus pics, the fancy version of the sticker. Its hot stamped with gold foil, the sticker is very thick. Its nearly impossible to get a picture that shows both the lovely print colour and the shiny gold. Its much more impressive in real life.
Next up is the rainbow sea bunny. This was by far our most purchased add-on, nearly half of you bought one (thank you!). They came out so good. Each one is different due to the metal plating process that's used.
Gold plated sea bunny. Simple but classy in my opinion. But I may be biased.
The sticker books look great, the prints are nice and crisp. The frosted covers are a really nice touch too.
The spiral notebooks too are pretty mint. They have a lot of pages for spiral notebooks too. Paper is nice quality, not the thin cheap stuff too.
The leatherettes are... Fine. (The print isn't blurry, its the texture of the cover). Not my favourite.
Sticker effects. So for the fancy stickers we're going with glow in the dark for Cyerce Elegans (all three colours). Nigricans you can see above, with the hot stamped foil. Then the rest are split between matte holo and brushed gold. We tried out tracing paper and washi paper and pearl paper options, but honestly they weren't all that impressive in comparison. The stickers have been designed with transparent and semi transparent areas to show off the effects to their full potential. Default stickers are matte clear vinyl with no special effects. All stickers got upgraded to 3" size because this place measures them differently and we were getting some that were really too small overall.
These are just some examples from the test batch I ordered. They'll be in some of the mystery bags, if you chose to include other campaigns and holo effects :).
That was all the good stuff so far. The next batch of pins is already on its way, which includes hopefully the glow in the dark and the leaf sheep pins. I will keep you updated :).
