Nearly all orders have shipped!
almost 2 years ago – Tue, Dec 06, 2022 at 06:40:43 PM

The post office came by to pick up another big shipment of minis!

 There are still 18 orders to ship including the top-tier orders. The remaining packages include books which needed slightly larger boxes.

I packed and prepared each order myself and held on to my last shreds of sanity by watching Critical Role and falling down the nostalgia rabbit hole on Tubi (the Logan's Run TV series really goes off the rails with episode two but I just kept watching). Like I said, shreds. :) 

I also used the time to plan the follow-up for Intoximancy. I'll have news about that in the coming weeks! 

Everything should be shipped this week!

Thank you all for your amazing support! I hope you love the figures!

The character stat cards have arrived! Physical orders begin shipping this week!

As part of the campaign, we unlocked a few stretch goals including stat cards of the characters! The cards were the last piece we needed and they arrived yesterday! I think they turned out great! :)

Each physical mini will get a card with it so if you ordered a Waddlebottom mini, you'll get a Waddlebottom card as well. 

I now have everything I need to start shipping out physical loot rewards! And if you received your minis at the Baltimore Comic-Con, look for an envelope with bonus goodies by themselves.

I'll keep you all posted. Thank you all again!

Fantastic news! The casting company has shipped the minis and they are on their way to me now!

The hurricane slowed us down but not by much. :)

As soon as I receive the stat cards from the printer, orders will be going out the door!

Here's a look at the final stat card designs...

The Beautiful Plumage Award!

I'll be making these statuettes to give to two folks who do an exceptional job painting their minis. It just seems like the sort of very kind thing Waddlebottom would do. :) I'll have more details after all the orders have shipped. Everyone will have plenty of time to participate!

Here's a 3D-rendering of the prize (the final will be a 3d-printed resin sculpt painted a golden color)...

Thank you for your amazing support!

Mini-production news! And Hurricane Ian update...
about 2 years ago – Wed, Oct 05, 2022 at 02:16:46 PM

First up, thank you for the well wishes!

As you might have seen on my social media, my town was in the path of Hurricane Ian and I was without power for a couple of days. It was pretty scary and I ended up with quite a bit of water damage in my home - including my studio. I lost a lot of packing materials and some books but nothing truly irreplaceable. Overall, I got off easy. I won't be back to 100% until after the carpets can be cleaned but the waiting list for cleaning services is months long. 

Pressing on...

Storms aside, the mini production is going really well! I received this update from the casting company on Monday... 

"We have the printing almost wrapped up for all the print sprues and the resin casting is underway. I believe they have all the molds completed and they are also queued up to go into our pressure pots as they start freeing up from the last project that was being cast."

I'll keep you all posted! as I learn more.

Here's a look at the labels for the individual boxes for the minis...
