Pintopia 2023
pintopia-2023

This project is part of Pintopia 2023, which runs from January 17th - February 7th 2023. Learn more →

Edit

Deep in the dark, inky blackness of the void, lures horrific eldritch monstrosities whose very existence is enough to drive one mad.

In the guise of a limited-edition, soft enamel pin collection, these dark entities are emerging to lower your psychic defenses towards the unfathomable as they worm their way into your fragile human minds (and your pin boards).

Behold! From the dark pages comes these Lovecraftian Horrors that each will come laser-numbered on the back. Earlier backers will get lower edition #s, with priority going first to those ordering a full set (one of each pin).

Edit


Pay tribute to the darkness in varying levels - choose whether you want one, two, or three pins! The larger the tribute, the lower the individual price per pin, so embrace your inner cultist and get the entire set at a huge discount.

Alternatively, if you seek to mix and match any of the pins (ie. two Hastur and a Shoggoth), that's totally okay as well. We'll take care of you in the post-campaign backer survey - so just pledge based on the quantity of pins you're looking for!

SHIPPING DETAILS
  • Shipping costs will be charged to you AFTER the campaign and SEPARATELY through your BackerKit survey.
  • Estimated shipping (1-3 pins) in the continental US is about $3-6 USD via USPS.
    8-ish pins is likely to run around $8-12. 
  • Global shipping gets pricey, and backers will be responsible for all tariffs, taxes, and other weird importing fees if you're outside the United States. Estimated shipping for non-US cultists is around $18 USD. 

Edit


Given the madness (not the good, Lovecraftian kind) of global logistics and shipping routes in pandemic-era manufacturing, these estimates are subject to change.

That said, I'll be working with a manufacturer that I've worked with several times in the past and I'll provide regular updates until the pins ship out, so I'm confident that the final shipping deadline should be achievable.

Hello, dear fiends!

My name is Rick Kitagawa, and am the lead cultist of The Evil Pin Club.

I'm a short horror-fiction author and dark artist that is often inspired by the cosmic horror elements and the cephalopod-goodness that was the late HP Lovecraft's Cthulhu mythos (minus all the racism), and felt the need to bring more dark pins from the world of Great Old Ones and Elder Gods to life.

I've already crafted pins inspired by the mythos and felt like it was time to make more, so here I am and I hope you'll join me on this eldritch ride towards enamel pin monster madness!

I've launched four successful enamel pin campaigns on Kickstarter before, so I'll be bringing all my product management knowledge, pin manufacturing experience, and love of the macabre to this campaign.

You can find all my social and art related links here. Thanks!
