Hey guys! Just wanted to pop in and let you know that a majority of the packages have been dropped off and are on their way to you! Thank you so much for your support during this campaign and I hope you enjoy all your new goodies!
I did have a couple of reminders to note:
If you for any reason are unhappy with your order please contact me at [email protected], I'm open to any and all feedback. My top priority is making sure you guys are happy!
If there's a problem with your order (ie: missing items, damaged goods, etc.) please contact me at [email protected]. I do all this by myself so I'm bound to make a mistake or two when working at this scale. I'm more than happy to send out any replacements, some items are low so if I need to order more stock there might be an additional wait.
UK Backers are responsible for any tax that might come with your pledge.
If you haven't received a notification of tracking, double check that your survey is filled out and your card has been successfully charged. I cannot ship out any orders that do not have a completed survey or a failed charge. If you do not correct this before the project ends you forfeit the right to your reward, no exceptions
I'll provide one last update before I officially close this project out to give you time to double check your pledge and make any last fixes. I'll be checking this campaign to get any remaining orders out in a timely fashion.
And I think that's about it! Before I close out this update, I just wanted to promote my next project which will be launching January 2026 as part of Pintopia 2026! The theme is Fallen Angels and I'm planning on reworking some old designs, offering some new, and debuting my first plush toys! You can sign up to be notified of when we launch HERE
Here's a sample of some of the pin designs you can expect, subject to change, they're in early design stages :)
Can't wait to work on this project more :) I truly appreciate your guys enthusiasm and support for my work. Things have been challenging for me and it means so much more than you know to be able to create cool projects like this! Hope to see you in my next project!
Hi guys! Just wanted to pop in with a real short update for today. Shipping is set to start soon on my part and I wanted to hop in with just a couple of reminders:
Double check that your card went through - I've had a big chunk of cards that errored out. This is pretty typical and I'll be running cards daily. Just a reminder that you will not receive your order until all payments go through.
Addresses will be locked soon - Ensure that the address you have is correct as you won't be able to update it once shipping begins.
I'm still waiting on the Whalefall pin which is on the way. Aside from that everything is graded, packed, and ready to go! I'm hoping to start shipping within the next week or so.
As always, if you need any help please contact me at [email protected] and I'll get back to you :)
Thanks so much and have a great rest of your week!
Hey guys! Hope you've been having a good couple of weeks! I'm happy to announce that most of the pins are in! The only one I'm waiting on is Whalefall, which is complete and just waiting to be shipped by my supplier. Hoping to have them in hand within the next two weeks.
With that said I have a couple of notes:
Orders will be locked and cards charged on July 15th After this time you'll be unable to make any changes to your order as I prepare for shipping
You have until July 15th to make any changes to your order. If you need help making any adjustments please message me at [email protected] and I'll be happy to help
I am unable to ship any orders that are not complete on the survey or have failed payments. PLEASE ensure your payments go through or you will be unable to receive your rewards.
And finally, here's a pic of all the pins! Hope you like them as much as I do :)
Anyways, I think that's about it for now! I'm going to get busy packing and grading all these goodies to get them out for you! Can't wait for you to receive your stuff :D!
Hey guys! Long time no see, happy June! Hope you all have been doing well. Just wanted to pop in with some updates on the status of this campaign! However before I get there, I just wanted to announce that today is my Birthday! As such I'm holding a 30% off sale for all items in my Etsy Shop! Come check it out if you want some cheap goodies, sale ends this Monday :)
Also as another reminder, the Pre-Order shop is still open for this campaign, so if you missed out and like what you see you still have time to grab some stuff!
Also another reminder to fill out your survey and fix your payments if they've failed! I cannot send you your items without full payment and survey completion! Make sure to take a moment to double check that your pledge is in order. Surveys are still unlocked so you're more than welcome to make any adjustments if need be. Once all pins are in my hands I'll make a notice on when cards will be charged for shipping/add-ons and orders will be locked.
Okay enough of that! Now some pin previews! Things are still in progress for most of them. I'm hoping all the pins can get complete at some point in July. I got these pins produced through three different suppliers, with my main supplier having a majority of the pins.
Today I just got in the Goblin Shark, Chimaera Shark, and Snipe Eel pins from one of my suppliers. They turned out awesome! Hope you like them as much as I do. I'll be spending the next few days grading and packaging them on their backing cards :)
This one is a bit less greenish in person, warm lighting in my room gives it a warmer tone than irl
The Whalefall Pin sample is complete and has been in production the past few weeks, I think the final sample turned out really great! I can't wait to have them in hand!
And then finally here are some WIP's from my last supplier of a majority of the remaining pins! Most of them are complete, however I'm having some trouble with the oarfish pin so I'm taking the time with my supplier to make sure they're exactly how I want. Regardless, here's some of the other pins!
Okay that's it for now! Thanks for checking it out! As always if you have any questions, comments, or concerns please message me at [email protected] I'm more than happy to help!
Hi all! Hope you've been doing well! Wanted to pop in with a bit of an update on the progress of the campaign as all the stickers and keychains have arrived! Pins are still in production and will take some time, some of the more complex designs I sampled first, but still wanted to share. Before we get into that I have a couple of housekeeping items to address
Pre-Orders
If you missed the campaign and are interested in any of the items, my pre-order store is still open which you can find HERE! Pre-Orders will remain open until I have all the products in hand, I'll be giving a heads up when I close the store. This is your last chance to get any of the campaign items at a discounted price, as the price will be updated as well as some items having limited stock once the campaign fulfillment is complete.
Survey Completion and Payments
Just a reminder to double check that your survey is complete and your payment will be updated. I cannot fulfill any order which doesn't have all information provided. Furthermore, if you fail to complete your survey or update your payment before the campaigns closure your pledge will be forfeit and any funds will be counted as a donation. No exceptions.
Surveys will lock once I have all items in hand. I want to wait until I post in hand photos of all the completed pins incase you guys want to do any further alterations to your order after seeing the final product! After that I'll charge cards for shipping + post campaign add-on fees. Again I'll give an ample amount of heads up to get your finances squared away
Pin WIPs
Here are some supplier images of some of the pins and how they're coming along! Please note that some of these are NOT COMPLETE and still have some work to be done or are subject to change! I wrote some notes for each design in the captions
Whalefall WIP, still needs translucent overlay and screenprint accents
Chimaera Shark, completed sample
Snipe Eel: doing some tweaks on the final printing on the face
Bristle Worm: Needs final epoxy coat
Sea Pig: Needs Screenprint details
Gulper Eel, unfinished plating and polishing
Keychains
Here's some images of all the keychains I took! Sorry they aren't super great quality, I'm awful at photos, but I hope they can get the idea across! I wanted to wait until it was sunny out to take outdoor photos, but haven't had great weather here.
To see a video of the whalefall liquid keychain moving + in my hand you can view this video on my bsky account HERE!
Whalefall Liquid Keychain
Black Swallower Keychain: Front has epoxy glitter sparkle
Siphonophore Keychain: Front has fireworks sparkle and epoxy
Mini phone Charms: Each has epoxy glitter on the front
Stickers
Again sorry for any lower quality pics, tried my best! Some of these stickers are hard to capture but should get the idea across. Please note that these are stickers that I kept for my own personal collection. They include some minor defects like discolored print or creases, but whatever you receive will be of highest quality.
Viperfish Glossy Holo rainbow, photo looks a bit washed out because of the darker colors and glossy surface but final product is rich in color
Vent Snail Matte Mirror effect, need to reprint this one I ordered it way too small lmao
Barreleye Matte Mirror surface
Frilled Shark Matte Mirror surface. This one has darker colors but was pointed up for the mirror effect to shine on it better and capture more details
Black Swallower Semi transparent glossy
Anglerfish Glossy Holo
Snipe Eel matte mirror
Oarfish Glossy Chunky Glitter: idk if I really like how this turned out, I likely will get this printed with a different effect to look more subtle. I think the chunky glitter kinda takes from the detail, but if you guys like this I'll keep it as is!
Phew I think that's about it for now! Hope you guys have a great rest of your day and see you again soon! Thanks so much for your patience and support!
