5 original 5" stickers of some of your favorite classic video game ladies! All artwork was originally hand-drawn and created by me, M. R. Gunn, using various media from inks to pencils to watercolors.
Welcome to my first BackerKit crowdfunding project! This is a pinup sticker series based on pre-2000s video game characters. All of the artwork was hand-drawn by me then photographed and digitally touched up for print. This project and my artwork stand in the face of generative AI, censorship, and the overbearing algorithms dictating what you see. However, that being said, my aim is to create fun, silly, and alluring 5" die-cut pop culture vinyl art stickers for all of my fellow nerds and art enjoyers.
ABOUT THE ARTWORK
All of the character artwork present in this project was created by hand by me. The sticker designs were hand-drawn original pieces on paper using inks, pencils, watercolor, and sometimes a little glitter or acrylic. They were then photographed and tweaked digitally for the best printing results. All of the digital work was also done by hand via a drawing tablet, mouse and keyboard. This is 100% #humanart
Absolutely no AI was used at any point in my creative process, writing, planning, or anything else I've done. #noai
PAST PROJECTS
Although this is my first project on BackerKit I did previous have a successfully funded pinup sticker campaign on KickStarter. That project was suspended during their adult content guideline change and, though that guideline change was later reversed, I had no option for appeal and the project remained suspended. After that experience I decided to scrap the project, offer the original artwork to those that pledged for them, and leave Kickstarter. Now I'm here on BackerKit!
Each sticker is a 5" die-cut durable vinyl design without those pesky stars in the way. However, please note that none of these designs depict any nipples or genitalia. I have no issues with nudity but for now the 5 original sticker designs are an "everything but" situation.
All stickers will have an opaque white border and background.
The 5" measurement is at the longest or widest point of the design and is subject to the printer's decision. There may be some very slight variation in size based on these considerations.
All original artwork is available on a 'first come, first serve' basis. There is only a single one of each design available so please keep that in mind. These are the hand-drawn original pieces that I've created for the sticker designs. None of those pesky stars are on the original pieces.
All original artwork was created on 9x12 98lb Canson mixed media paper.
All domestic shipping for the stickers will be free via a stamped envelope unless you reach out to me for an upgrade. Any upgrades or international shipping costs will need to be calculated based upon your location and package dimensions.
All shipping costs for the original artwork will be calculated based on your location and package dimensions.
I am dependent on you to get your items to you as quickly as possible. Please fill out your survey quickly and accurately to ensure you your goods! If for some reason you do not fill out the survey after 6 months your pledge will be considered a donation and your survey will go to the shadow realm!
I will update everyone on the campaign periodically. I hope for everything to go as smoothly and efficiently as possible but some things are outside of my control, such as the printing process, so please bear with me if anything does cause issues. I will do my best to resolve things as quickly as I can to the best of my abilities.
If any exchanges or replacements are needed I will judge them on a case-by-case basis. Please contact me directly if this happens. This does mean I will need information, possibly pictures of damages, etc. from you. Vinyl is tough but sometimes, rarely, things go really wrong during shipping. Please be patient while I try to resolve any issues if this does indeed happen.
