Quick one here, since the majority of fun stuff is gonna go to a CRITTER CRIMES update later tonight.
Factory remakes for our flawed GOLDEN AGE PARROTS pins (most importantly, our kakapo color correction) have shipped, and will be coming to the United States shortly.
If you're waiting on a tan beaked kakapo, this is going to be for you! All of these packages are sitting nice and pretty on my desk, waiting for pins to hit the States. I don't have a delivery estimate for them right now, but we're expecting 1-2 weeks.
Whiteface cockatiel stickers also got picked up at Anthrocon, and orders waiting on those will be going out as I gear up for CRITTER CRIMES' fulfillment this coming week.
Thank you for your patience - not ordering these was a mistake, on my part, and they should have come in the order for GAP.
As I said up there, CRITTER CRIMES' pins and stickers are now in, and we're going to start switching gears to get that project out to backers. GOLDEN AGE PARROTS is almost over, and you can probably expect one more update after all our fixed kakapos go to backers.
Before I get corporate: thank you for sticking with this project.
I enjoyed the art style and the nostalgia from GOLDEN AGE PARROTS, but there are a lot of things I wish I did differently. It's clear that there's some promise to doing GOLDEN AGE pins, but I picked a poor timing window and stretch goal format.
I'm throwing some ideas at the wall, for what to do for this year's final project. An overhauled, smaller GOLDEN AGE project is on the list, either with more birds or with friendly, familiar dog breeds. Who knows, yet? I want to get CRITTER CRIMES set, first.
This project hasn't really been a success, and it's not one I'm exceptionally proud of. I like a few pins, but ultimately, if they don't sell, I don't care. It's time to move on and figure out something else that works. Thank you for giving me the space to make mistakes, and learn from them, and thank you for holding me accountable when shit doesn't work.
Did you miss GOLDEN AGE PARROTS? All our stuff from this project is up and ready to ship on the retail store - KEN'S PIN HUSTLE. Check these beebies out!
