Hello everyone! We've got some updates on campaign merch and how the pilot development is going.
MERCH:
We've been finalizing the post-campaign survey, which will let you finalize details of your pledge perks such as shirt sizes or card variants. You can expect to see this survey in your email by the end of the month.
You will also have the opportunity to add "add-ons" to your order before it's shipped!
We've placed orders for some of the merchandise from our wholesaler, and the rest will be finalized once we receive your survey responses.
ANIMATION PRODUCTION:
We're reworking parts of the script based on notes from our new producer.
Once the script is finalized, we'll design any new materials, record dialogue with our voice actors, and start clean storyboards!
Thank you all for your patience- we're a small team and have had a lot of logistics to work through, but it's all to make sure you guys get quality merchandise and the best version of the pilot possible!
Hello backers and followers, I'm back with more recolors polls and a change to the refund policy.
Refund Policy
A few backers have mentioned they made mistakes in the survey such as making duplicate orders. I usually have a strict no-refund policy as it is difficult to process refunds after backers have made their payment. However with so many complaints I have decided to relax this policy just for this campaign. Please contact Backerkit support and they can help fix your order and process a refund for you. This refund will be minus any fees and taxes; and is only for backers who made duplicate orders, duplicate addons, or have excess credit in their order. You have until addresses are locked to request a refund, no refunds will be given after your shipping address is locked.
This is a one-time exception and any future campaigns will be strictly no-refund. In my campaigns or other campaigns, please read the campaign page and check your orders diligently to make sure you don't pay for more than you intended to.
If you want a refund, please contact Backerkit support and do not submit a chargeback or dispute. Doing so will result in a dispute fee; and if you persist with the chargeback or dispute you will be forbidden from pledging to any of my future campaigns.
Recolor Polls
Now for the fun stuff, more polls! Just a reminder, both the Pride colors and winning recolors will be preorders/addons in my next campaign, Blood and Holy Water. Happy voting!
Hello backers and followers, while we are waiting on manufacturing updates I thought I'd share some recolor ideas I had for the pins that were not funded. You can vote on your favorites in the polls linked below (they are open to both backers and non-backers).
I am planning to make both the Pride colors and winning recolors, to be as inclusive as possible. These are planned to be preorders/addons in my next campaign, Blood and Holy Water.
I'll be splitting up the list in two since there's a lot of designs, here is part 1 of 2; and keep an eye out for part 2 sometime later. Happy voting!
Just wanted to send out a labor day sale coupon code to all backers of this campaign and previous campaigns! You can use code LABORDAY in the Etsy shop for 25% off your order of $30 or more.
I wanted to send this important reminder that we will be charging credit cards on Tuesday, September 3rd, for any pre-orders, unpaid pledge balances and additional purchases from the Pledge Manager add-ons.
If you did not purchase any extra add-on items in your survey, you will not have any charges at this time! Shipping fees are going to be collected at a later date closer to fulfillment, to ensure the most cost-effective and accurate shipping prices.
I've been hard at work finalizing vector art and color swatches for manufacturing so that production can start as soon as we've got the final counts on everything.
I've also been putting the final touches on my next pin collection, launching in early October! What started as an aspirational sequel to my first collection from 2018, Calming Cats, has evolved into Coping Cats. Because sometimes we're thriving and sometimes we're just getting through it, and our furry friends can offer wisdom on both. Check out the campaign!
