-- Weighted Nyx Update --

Ok, so we got the photos for the final weighted Nyx plush revision. I'm still not quite happy with how her overall body shape looks from this manu. Somehow with this one they changed her beak and it does not look like they are using the pattern I gave them for the Terragryff beaks.

Her front claws do look better than all the other claw versions we have seen. She will be getting sent to me very soon, so I can inspect her better in person. 

However I am thinking I'm going to switch to the manu I switched to for the Teacup Terragryffs, since they have been knocking it out of the park bringing my Terragryffs to life so far. I will get the samples for Nyx, Athena, and Eudora weighted plush started with the new manu this week. Thankfully they are really quick and we shouldn't have to wait very long for the first draft sample photos.

What do you guys think of this version of Nyx?


-- Teacup News --

The Athena and Nyx teacup style plush will be getting shipped to me very soon! I can't wait to see them in person. 

Shortly after I see them in person, I will get them started on production. I will let everyone know once that starts. Once production starts it should take about a month for them to make the plush and then about a month to get them via shipping.  

Since things have taken a little longer for these and the weighted plush, I will be including a gift in everyones orders for your patience. 

---- Teacup Nyx Update ----

What do you guys think about Teacup Style Nyx? 

I'm thinking she is pretty much done. Unless you guys see anything I missing. 

After I get the next round of all the other Teacup Style Terragryffs that are currently in progress, I believe all the sample plush will be getting shipped out to me. 

After I get to see Athena and Nyx teacup plush in person, I will then get them started on production. I will keep everyone updated once I know more on the production and shipping timeline. 

---- Teacup Nyx Pre-Orders --

Right now there are two places you can pre-order the Teacup Style Nyx plush!

Wyldefell Woods Pre-Order Store

Add-On for the Rainbow Terragryff Campaign

---- Wyldefell Woods & OtherWorld Menagerie -----

I was at Columbus Pride recently. And as you also know my shop name is OtherWorld Menagerie. I had came up with my new shop name in 2019. In 2020 in the Columbus, OH area a new interactive art place opened up called "OtherWorld Columbus", ever since we came back to vending events in 2021 after the Pandemic I have had people thinking I'm them. And it hasn't helped since they started selling fantasy creature plush too....well at this years Columbus Pride was the worst it has ever been of people thinking I am them and then dismissing my booth. Or saying "Oh I have been to OtherWorld", as they only read part of my sign and not the whole thing. 

So one of things I'm working on doing for in person events is going to be switching over "Wyldefell Woods", as I'm honestly so tired of getting mistaken for them over the past half a decade. They have a huge marketing budget and whatnot, which I do not have. So they are always going to be more well known then me. 

I will still be posting on the OtherWorld Menagerie accounts, but here are the new Wyldefell Woods ones if you want to follow:

Just a quick update to let you all know the eyes for Athena and Eudora are getting updated to these. These are photos I edited to show the manu what to change the eyes to. I will share the new photos once the revisions are actually made. 

We should also get an update on Nyx in the near future. 

As a reminder you can help us bring Eudora to life as a plush in August! Check out our launch party page for her here -> https://www.backerkit.com/c/projects/otherworld-menagerie/wyldefell-woods-pigeon-terragryff/launch_party

Also now that we have the size down for the Teacup Terragryffs, I will be working with the new manu to have the "Emotional Support Terragryff" vests made. I was also thinking having a leash/bag strap attachment so you can wear them and bring them with you. 

I will keep everyone up to date on the progress of these once they get started. And if you want to add one to your pledge/pre-order in the future please let me know. I can manually add it on the backend for you.

-- Athena Update --

The new Athena sample has had her eyes updated color wise.  I have also included the photo they sent of Athena and Eudora together! And one of them holding Athena so you can see the updated size for them!

Below these are the final needed changes for Athena. Which we should get photos of in the next week or two. (They are working on getting the first draft samples of the Rainbow Terragryffs ready for us!)

-- Athena Revisions --

Don't mind my kinda blurry photoshopping to show them the eye size. But yea, her eye size will be made a little larger and then her tail will be made thicker/wider.

-- Nyx Update --

First up is the updated Nyx from the original manu. This Nyx looks a better then the first one they sent, but still not what I have been envisioning.  

And here is the Nyx from the new manu, she is almost perfect! Her beak needs to be adjusted a bit size wise. And then her tail needs to be made wider/thicker. Otherwise she is spot on to what I was thinking. 

I really can't get over her eyes and looking like they are glowing. She is very much embodying all the Void creatures I have summoned in the past!

-- Rainbow Terragryffs --

Our Rainbow Terragryff plush campaign will be launching in just a few days! Sign up for notifications on when we launch here!

We will be getting photos of the first draft sample plush of the Rainbow Tiger, Trans Leopard, and Nonbinary Cheetah by next Friday it sounds like. 

-- Weighted Nyx Update --

We got an update for Nyx. Embroidery is now the right color and its still visible. They had originally tried telling me you wouldn't be able to see black embroidery on black fabric. 

Overall she looks pretty good. However her ears need to be folded more. And her front claws still need a bit of work. I was comparing them to the concept art/mockup and the pointy stabbies (technical term) are too thin/long still. They need to be a bit chonkier and more flush with the top of the paw part. Also no gap between the pointy stabbies so to speak. 

Going to work on the revision sheet to send them by this evening. And then hopefully the next version of her will be the final one.
