Over Halfway there

I am over halfway through all the packages. I definitely didn’t foresee how long it takes to get over 600 packages. I had some help this week from a friend that helped me get almost half of them out but I’m doing the rest by myself (and hopefully some help from my sister) please be patient with me as this is a long and arduous process. In a order to get all the packages correct I need to slow down and take my time. I was feeling rushed and made a few mistakes.
It’s been a tough year so far and I’ve been feeling a lot of burnout so I won’t have the mythological feline pins Kickstarter run this month. I’m going to be moving out of my dreadful apartment in a few short months and don’t want to deal with a huge pin orders as I’m trying to move. That said, however, I’m planning instead to do a smaller project that will be much more manageable. I love griffins and there are so many variations so I’m am drawing up ideas for a set of pins of griffins of different mythologies. I’ll be waiting to launch the project after getting all current Kickstarter rewards shipped out so I’m aiming for end of the month-beginning of March so if that sounds interesting, keep an eye out for further updates.
Thank you all again for your incredible support. Also Id love to hear from you if you received your pins!
Shipping has begun!!!

I started shipping out packages yesterday, it’s going to be a bit of slow process since it’s mostly me doing it by myself since my friend can’t come over as much to help. I will be at Central Florida Comic Con this weekend and My Hero Con: Texas Smash next week so if you’re going to either let me know I can can have your package ready for you.
(AU and NZ supporters) I tried sending out a few packages to a few of you and priority or UPS is still the only option for me. The price range goes from $40-$60 and it’s not something I can afford since I only charged the normal $15 for shipping. If you want your packages sent now, let me know and I can send an invoice for the difference in shipping fees otherwise I’ll have to wait longer for your post to accept first class mail again. It’s been months now and it’s very frustrating since I have so many supporter in Australia and New Zealand, I hope everything resumes soon.
Shipping soon

I'm about 90% done grading and about a third of the way through boarding all the pins. I'm estimating everything will be done by the end of the week and I'll start shipping out pins. I slowed down to enjoy the holidays but I'm back (nearly) at full full force to finish the project. I currently have a sinus infection so that's slowed me down a bit but I'm still chugging along. Again, I do apologize this project was so delayed. Unfortunately with everything going on from Covid shipping delays to China's energy reduction which causes the factories to no be as production, its really slowed down the process so I'll be sure to have longer processing time for future projects so I am better able to project when rewards go out.
(almost) all pins are here!

I just got four more boxes with pins and backing cards in. Still missing Sleipnir but I’ve been told they were shipping them and my Canis restocks separately.
I’ll be bringing a small excess amount to Yamacon next weekend and HolMat the weekend after so if you are attending either one let me know and I’ll have your orders ready at the show and I’ll refund shipping. If your intending your rewards as Christmas presents let me know and I’ll ship them next week before I leave, otherwise I’ll start shipping them out at the end of the month and beginning of January due to my tight holiday schedule. Again, I want to apologize for the two month delay, I’m trying my best to play catch up since I was expecting pins two months ago but I’m glad everything is coming together.

According to tracking pins are supposed to arrive Monday!!!!! I’m not sure if it is all the pins, I know for certain that Indrik is being remade as I noticed in the pictures sent to me that they used the wrong colors, but I’m unsure if they’re still working on other designs and just sent the ones finished but I’ll of course let you all know Monday.
If you are wanting to receive these as Christmas presents please let me know. My manu is still making the backing cards so I won’t have those till I get back from my vacation which won’t be till December 3rd at the earliest. If you’re okay with the pins not having the finished backing cards I can either ship without a backing card or make a few myself (though they will have to be made of thinner cardstock)
I’m really excited to have them in hand and I’ll share pictures Monday-Tuesday!!!
