Project Update: Manufacturing updates!!
Here are TV Cat and Gorgon update images I shared to the other campaign already, and Golem!
Demon is coming along too!
And a semi-update on Mummy and Dullahan:
This factory told me their screenprinting machine(? I thought this was done by hand for pins, so the fact they even have one is impressive to me) is currently under repair, so they felt bad and UV printed without added charge for some samples so that I could see what all the colors and placement are like. However, the screenprint colors will be presumably most accurate anyway because I chose color codes for them, vs UV printing being done with ink by...well, a printer. So I just used these as compositional reference mostly.
The feedback I gave was that Mummy has some green in her bangs and that shouldn't be there. Dullahan's purple shouldn't be swirly, her blue "face" is supposed to be a different color, and her nails as well. There were a couple spots they couldn't cut out like I wanted them to, but overall I think the molds look really really good!!
They said they'll fix it asap, and they won't UV print - they'll wait to do print en masse until they can screenprint again. UV print on pins has its place, I'm doing it on some of my snake pins coming up, but I don't want it on these ones, it's hard for me to explain. Too 3D and grainy?
I paid the first half of Mermaid, too! That proof process was actually pretty lengthy because she's complicated, but she's now approved and her mold is in queue. And Angel is still in early production so I haven't seen progress pics yet.
Thanks for your patience!! I've been having very severe hand pain so I'm trying to stagger my campaign updates (not doing any 2 the same day) so I don't keel over. I'm excited about these girls and I hope you are too!
