Thank you to everyone who has completed their survey. I especially want to thank those of you who notified us of anything not working as expected or with questions. Here were a few things that were fixed:
Earlybird free print main image not displayng - fixed
Nexus and the Tank and Kraylox prints forcing digital orders to ship - fixed If you had a digital only order and you do NOT want the print shipped, but were forced to choose that, you can now go back and edit your options and you will have the ability to choose a download instead of a shipped image.
Charging shipping on Donated books - fixed The donate to troops book was adding on 1 ounce which meant shpping charged for digital orders. This has been fixed and we were able to get it to zero, but keep it as a shippable item so we are covering all the shipping. If you already checked out this will auto update your order.
LIMITED EDITION CALENDAR
FAQ: If you aready purchased a calendar during the campaign you do not need to purchase another one when offered during checkout. We are offering (1) to everyone for $15. Add-on cost is $20 and presale is $25. Each calendar is shrink wrapped with cardboard. Print run is limited to 250 calendars and we are 60% sold out!
If there is anything else you find that needs to be fixed, please alert us ASAP at [email protected] or via Discord. Private #backers-lounge access beow!

The crowdfunding campaign is in the survey phase, using BackerKit.
A "smoke test" is being conducted to ensure the surveys are working correctly.
A small, random group of backers from each pledge tier will receive a survey.
The test will run for at least 24 hours.
If you receive a survey, please complete it promptly and report any issues.
Why a Smoke Test?
A smoke test is a quick check to see if a system is working as expected. In this case, the system is the BackerKit survey. By testing a small group, the campaign team can identify and fix any problems before sending out surveys to everyone.
What to Do:
If you receive a survey, please complete it as soon as possible.
If you encounter any issues, let the campaign team know.
International Shipping:
Shipping costs have increased dramatically.
To simplify the process, we’re charging a minimum fee of $30-50 for international orders.
This covers most orders, including customs and duties.
If your shipping costs exceed the minimum fee, we’ll contact you with options.
Shipping to an international PO Box may incur additional charges.

We wanted to send a giant THANK YOU to all of you who backed our recent crowdfunding campaign! We couldn't have done it without your incredible support.
Next Steps:
Surveys: We'll be sending out post-campaign surveys next Thursday, August 22nd. Please keep an eye out for it! We need a few weeks to allow everyone's pledges to clear (there were 17 bounced pledges so far – if that's you, please check your email and update your card on file!).
Early Bird Bonus: Complete your survey by August 29th to receive a free bonus print (see below) This time we are also offering a digital option on prints so you can still get the image for early checkout.
Shipping Timeline: After surveys are complete, we'll finalize production and send everything to the printers. We expect to have everything shipping out 6-8 weeks after everyone completes checkout.
