about 1 year ago – Tue, Apr 04, 2023 at 05:26:02 PM

Hello everyone!

Surveys are on their way! I've sent out smoke tests to a random few. Once those get filled with no hiccups, I'll be sending out surveys to everyone so stay tuned! Please check you inbox from an email from Backerkit to see if you were chosen for the smoke test, its picked at random so I have no idea who got one. If you come across anything that needs to fixed please let me know so I can correct it before surveys go out to everyone.

Till next time, 

Rae

we did it!!

We did it! Over three weeks during the campaign we managed to unlock all 20 designs and a freebie reward too!!! While we may not have made it to the Kickstarter exclusive there’s still hope for the pin. In the next two weeks I’ll be building the surveys through Backerkit. They have options of adding stretch goals so we can still aim to unlock it. Thank you to everyone who supported this project and I can’t wait to start production. But first we have to fill out surveys. They should be going out in about 2 weeks, it takes 2 weeks for Kickstarter to collect pledges and send the funds to me. During that time I’ll be working with my manu in approving artwork and getting production started. Once surveys are filled out to at least 75% I’ll have a solid idea on how many of each design to order and then it’ll take approximately 1-3 months to complete production. I’ll be updating you all as I can do please keep an eye out for update notifications and your surveys from Backerkit. In other news, I’ll be at three shows this month. Mississippi Anime fest this weekend, Galaxycon Richmond, and Megacon Orlando so please come by and say hi if you’re at the show!

New pins added and new freebie stretch goals!

Hello everyone!

Thank you all for supporting my project, there's less than 6 days left before the project is over and we are so close already to unlocking that last goal! I added the Taniwha and Tarosque to the stretch goals!

On top of that, I've already added two stretch goals to unlock freebies! The first stretch goal is set for $8,000 USD and it will unlock a free mystery sticker pack for all pin tier backers, you'll also get an extra pack for every 6 pins you back. 

While stickers are great, the truly great stretch goal is a Kickstarter Exclusive! If we can reach $10,000 USD we will unlock the Kitsune pin in an exclusive color, Kickstarter green! This pin will only be available for Kickstarter backers and will be free for any backers of 6 or more pins, it will also be available as an add on as well. 

 The strongest days of Kickstarter projects always seem to be the last couple days so I have no doubts that we will make all our goals! Please share with friend, family and followers so we can unlock everything and make this project super successful! If we blow these stretch goals out of the water, I may have to add on a few more freebie stretch goals!

Thanks again!

I look away for a little bit and we are already past the initial funding goal and already on our way to the fourth stretch goal! You all are awesome! I can't believe we funded the project in under 2 hours! I believe that's a new record for me haha. We already have the starting goal of three pins and now we've unlocked another 3 with another very close to being funded. I can't express how greatful I am, I'm completly blown away and I'm so glad I decided to give this project another chance. 

I'll be leaving for my in-the-woods birthday getaway tomorrow but I should have enough reception to monitor the progress. I have a feeling a few more stretch goals will be reached before the weekend :)
