ADD-ONS!!!
over 1 year ago – Sat, Dec 03, 2022 at 05:31:33 PM

HEY GUYS! been getting a ton of questions regarding add-ons. so please read if an available reward isn't enough for you and you need more!

Add-On chart:

Please add the appropriate funds to your pledge if you want any of these additional items for your reward. This will not effect your shipping. There is no limit to these, so if you want to get multiple of one thing or  mix-match to get a bunch of things,  just multiply it to the number below (example: if you want to add on three mini pins, add $15 to your pledge. If you want to get an additional Dice set and mini pin, please add $55 to your pledge)

• Mini Pin of choice: $5 each
• Small Pin of choice: $10 each
• Large Pin of choice: $15 each
• Leather Dice bag: $25 each
• D20 of choice: $7
• Dice Set of Choice: $50

why this way?

I will not be doing Add-ons via kickstarter because I plan to use Backerkit for my surveys. I have found that the Kickstarter Add-Ons feature during the campaign are good for projects that intend to have their surveys directly through kickstarter and for smaller projects that are more manageable to organize. I tried using Kickstarters Add-Ons on one of my older kickstarters and it totally made my backerkit surveys a mess which was annoying and very confusing for everyone.

SOOO!!!! If you want to add-on to your reward, please follow this chart above and add the appropriate amount to your pledge. It's as easy as simply adding additional funds to your reward! We doing it old school style!

Just like any of the questions of the survey, you'll be able to pick out your add-ons no different in the Add-On section, but pay for them early in your pledge here just like a reward. Nice and simple.

I lowered Stretch Goals! PLEASE READ! We are so close to unlocking everything!
over 1 year ago – Fri, Dec 02, 2022 at 04:19:48 PM

That's right! I'm lowing the stretchgoals :D

I've been getting concerned backers about not reaching our goals and not getting the spirit or water sets because there's very little time left and so much more money to raise,  but not to worry! have no fear about your pledges and getting what you want!

SO WITH THAT BEING SAID! ALL WATER ELEMENTAL PINS AND DICE SETS ARE UNLOCKED! 

All Spirit Elemental pins and Dice is only $400-$4000 away!

Why am I doing this?! Well here's the explanation of why!

So, I've explained it in various updates, and comments here and there, but the reason why I priced the Stretch goals as high as I did, is because previously, I've done 4 kickstarters before this one, and ALL 4 out of 4, have somehow coincidently landed at 500 backers. And That's a lot of people and thus a lot of product to buy, so I need a ton of money. SO! trying to follow the pattern that has happened without fail every time, I tried to financially plan for 500 backers, thus why I ranged things to be like $40,000 and stuff.

HOWEVER! there are only 3 days left, and I don't think we are going to double our backers lol. I'd be very surprised if we did hahah.  This means, with less backers I don't need as much money in order to fulfill to you guys, and thus I can afford a lot more product with less money because I'd be getting less of each pins/dice/bags thanks to having less backers. Which is a good thing! (yes, sometimes less is more!😂)

So after crunching some numbers and re-estimating my financial plan on the new estimated 300-350 backers, I have adjusted the stretchgoals accordingly! and it has landed, that I only need about $4,000 more to fullfill ALL THE DICE AND PINS, and only an additional $2,000 for the black and white leather bags! :D  which is A LOT more doable than than a freakishly intimidating $12,000 in three days, oof. 😅😵

what happens if we do somehow reach 500+ backers?

That's ok, If I end up having to pay a few thousand out of pocket, then so be it!😊💙 I've done it twice before and I will gladly do it again! This is a "kickstarter" after all. Not a "pay everything for me" fundraiser. it's just enough to help or 'kickstarter' me to create something I couldn't do alone, and $26,000-$30,000 sure is a BIG HELP haha. 🤣 So while I can't afford $30,000 on my own, (I'm no Mr. Beast!) but I sure can tack on a few extra thousand out of my business account to top off the rest. 

Hope this is reassuring to everyone looking to get the Water and Spirit Pins/Dice! Thank you all so much for supporting me! Lets try to end this on a bang! We Got this!

Check out this really cool project!
over 1 year ago – Tue, Nov 29, 2022 at 07:13:19 PM

So I don't usually do this, but this project is actually super cool and I think deserves a shout out, so please take a look!

Their Kickstarter only has 3 days to go, so they are on the final homestretch, and I'd love to help them out if anyone is willing to look at his project, share it on their social medias, and or if anyone is interested in cool horror books maybe snatch a Kickstarter copy for yourself! it's different from the stuff I produce, but I just thinks it's really super fucking neat! It's a horror graphic Novel! His name is  T.W. Burgess, a writer specializing in horror and the supernatural predominantly within comics and video games!!! :D

Here's the link to his kickstarter! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/manoghosts/misterhowl

Also has a super clean website here!: https://www.twburgess.com/

AND a shop! just like me! so you can see his past works as well! This kickstarter isn't his first horror novel, so if you want to see his past works as well, go for it!  https://manoghosts.com/

What the book is about

Over twenty years ago and following a life-changing injury, 15-year-old Jay,  is tasked with recording his rehabilitation, whilst mostly confined to his room, high above the city street in his mother's cramped apartment. However, begins to witness strange occurences with a new resident that stands apart from the others. With his camera on hand and a mindset to record his experiences, begins to try and capture various strange activites that all began with this new neighbor which he calls 'Mr. Howl"... 

the graphics in the book show the photos that Jay takes recording his findinds of the off phenomenons, as if you get to experience as the reader along with him! So instead of simply reading a story as it, it's a very creative way of going about horror that I don't often see, written as if you're iun Jay's shoes, discovering these encounters along with him as if you took the photo yourself. 

and I'll just stop there. lol I don't want to give too much away, so seriously if that's not a good enough little catcher for you, read the full story summery on the kickstarter, it's freaking rad and the visuals are so awesome. to click the link! I implore you! muahaha! There's a ton more graphics and information there!

5th ELEMENT REVEALED! - 1 WEEK LEFT! OH BOY
over 1 year ago – Tue, Nov 29, 2022 at 03:06:20 AM

Sorry a bit late guys, didn't expect the reveal to line up with Thanksgiving Holiday, been away from my computer a while but I'm back now! 

Oh wowie, look at that snazzy new thumbnail lol! OH BOY! 

THE 5th Element issss.... The element of...

Or Soul haha either or really. 

There's a lot of cool sub-elements like, Light, Shadow, Metal, etc, but Spirit doesn't branch off from one of the existing ones, it's just the existence of a living thing and that I think deserves a spot in this kickstarter! One day I'd love to do light and dark/shadow but that'll be for another kickstarter lol. As far as Aether or Cosmic, eh I already got some space dragons and I'll probably just make more on my own off kickstarter. but Spirit was super rad! So I had to do it. plus! it's really special to me, as this 5th element is a big part of me and my friend's original stories, so  haha I'm a little bias too. 

Some of you guys were really close, or came up with some really good guesses! But only a small few of you guys actually guessed it! :D 

Rewards update, and Stretch Goals! PLZ READ- ONE WEEK LEFT!

Please tell your friends and spread the word! We have ONE WEEK LEFT! any sharing helps a bunch! Thank you guys!  here's the link! Thank you! no pressure tho! lol

I've never Reached a Goal that high, but considering where' already practically at $25,000 with HALF the amount of backers I have always consistently gotten for all 4 of my past kickstarters, I'm not too worried. Things pick up like crazy in the last 72 hours, so it's really up to the last 3ish days to see where the kickstarter lands! and as I've mentioned before, if we hyposthetically stopped right now, because I'd only have to order product enouugh for 260ish people, that's more than enough to get everything. These goals are just set as high as they are in prep for 500 backers because it's been so consistent, so trying to proportion out financial plans that follow the 500 backer pattern. Soif we stop at 300 or even 400 backers, have no concern about locked rewards, I should have enough to get everything, even if it means paying out of my pocket to get them, so have no fear upgrading your rewards or adding to your pledges. :>

I have Added more rewards that include the 5th element! So if you want these bad boys feel free to upgrade your reward, or simply add the appropriate funds to your pledge following the Add-On list in the story, or can be found here :>

The Dice are so beautiful too! AAHHH

Their All here! And they all look so good next to each other!

Don't they all look so lovely together!? I realized because the full set is complete with 5 elements, it fits perfectly to be spread out in a Pentacle format which I thought what just so magical and fucking cool, especially for any of you out there that practice magic, or chakras, etc and encorporate elements such as spirit, into your rituals. Or if you don't, maybe it's just cool and artistic XD things are allowed to just look pretty too and nothing more haha XD 

5TH ELEMENT SNEAK PEAK! -- TWO WEEKS LEFT!
over 1 year ago – Sat, Nov 26, 2022 at 09:04:47 AM

TWO WEEKS LEFT! 

It's both gone by so fast and feels like there's hardly any time left at all, and yet, two weeks is a ton of time! That's half a month to still gather funds and reach goals! such a crazy time two weeks is. lol 

If you are so willing (no pressure tho) Please Share and post about this kickstarter, the link is here! it'll help push this a lot!

So far we've unlocked everything but any of the water set! with the Black Amber Dice being the last thing that unlocked just a day or so ago! I know we are in the slow period of the kickstarter right now, but that's totally normal! I'm not worried about reaching these stretchgoals at all, and if we don't make it, I'll go as far as to pay out of my own pocket to get them made so you guys can have them too. I'm not here for money, I'm here because I want to see the things I'm passionate about come to life, you guys help me do this, so if I can help back as well, I have and will gladly do it again for this kickstarter, 

🔮but for now! I have a few teasers for you on what they will look like~🔮

Hope you like this little tease! I'm so obsessed with these designs hahah they are very me for anyone who knows me personally hahah you know.

🔮🔮🔮the rough sketches for the small and the large pin, and then the final linework for the mini and the small/medium dragon pin, not showing color, or plating, or anything yet. haha don't want to give it ALL away. As you can see how much detailed and refined the small pin is from sketch to linework, just IMAGINE how badass and amazing the big one is from sketch to final 👀🔮🔮🔮 And of course, can't forget about the dice, so here's a close up on just a few of them. Can't wait to properly showcase these purple beauties in video and better photos that show them in their entirety!

Do you know what it is now? There's been a lot of guesses up until now,  But hopefully this will help people kind of figure out what this 5th element is ;>

Hope you guys like these teasers! once they are revealed at the unlock of the first water pin, I'll be adding new reward tiers where the 5th element is included, (or you can just add the appropriate funds to your pledge if you want them <3)
