This is the 2nd-to-last Launch Party update before the campaign actually goes live!
I've got here a mockup of the frosted acrylic charm I am going to get made. Honestly - I've been thinking about maybe still going to China for it. There aren't any reliable US acrylic keychain/charm manufacturers and I actually recently heard some negative things about the European one I was considering for these. So I guess we'll see.
This is my first time trying to mock up frosted acrylic so please go easy on me!

What do you think? I'm thinking 2" tall? I don't know yet what I will attach to it but honestly probably just a ball chain. I went through a phase of hating them but lately they've been really reliable for me, and have the bonus of being super easy to replace if something bad happens.
Any feedback is appreciated!
As a bonus: I have been really hardcore rushing to get stuff ready for Colossalcon at the end of this month, which includes making a lot more shaker designs. I was running low on Brain Juice so I ordered more! The Brain Juice shakers that will be offered as add-ons in this campaign are only going to have black ball chains and not a beaded chain (beaded chain shakers are OOAK and $30/e, I only sell them at cons).
I'll have about 5 of them available at $25/e, maybe more. They glow in the dark!

Next/last prelaunch update is popularity poll! While I have been drowning in self-imposed deadlines for Colossalcon this month, I'm still occasionally whittling away at another design based on a pre-existing OC....
P.S.: I got my coffin buttons for Colossalcon in, and I am definitely going to try to get at least some of these girls in some coffin art before the campaign ends.
I used 2 different art styles for the people in this order; my sorta-semi-realistic-painterly(?) style for my OCs in my otome in development, and a more cel-shaded approach for the jirai kei succubus who is a random OC designed specifically for that stamp rally. (If people like her, I can try to make her a pin stretch goal! This is not the OC vaguely hinted at above.) I'm not sure which art style I'd go with for these ladies in order to do this, but likely the latter!
