Project Update: Do you like shiny things?

Greetings Star Seekers,

Today I get to share some exciting news! My pins arrived as did my author proof! Which means I can share some pictures with you!

Now, I should probably preface this with the disclaimer that these are cell pictures and my professional photographer self may be cringing that I'm even sharing it publicly. But I'm just too excited to wait to do a proper shoot to share. So here's the first look at the pins and books!

I am in absolute awe with how pretty it is! And I couldn't be happier!

Do you collect pins as well as books?
My own collection has grown significantly as my derpy dragons also arrived yesterday!

Here's all the pins I have designed! And my own growing collection. If you look closely, you will see the cross collaboration set on there as well.

Get both these pins FREE when you back me and my partner's campaign!

They are like miniature little art pieces!

Tomorrow I will share another illustration I finished for Star Awakened.

I know it wasn't the one you guys voted on, but I couldn't help myself to finish it.

Until tomorrow!

Yours in art,
Therena

Question about the cover of the first book.

Hi. I was just wondering what made you change the style of the first cover? I was looking up the book on goodread and I noticed some changes on the character art. (Mostly her face.) One goodread she looks more sweet while here on backerkit she looks more glammed up. Was it to match the art of the second book? I'm just curious. They are both beautiful in their own way and the overall changes are are small so I was just wondering. MVH Nathalie
