Hey Everyone!
With all the new followers, we're creeping to the top of the Pintopia page! Thanks so much for following along! And I'm glad some were interested in the reservation reward- I was hesitant about introducing it because I didn't want it to come across the wrong way, so seeing such a positive response has been really encouraging.

Welcome to everyone new and THANK YOU!
Each follow really helps grow this idea into the real thing, so feel free to share.

There's a new poll this week for you to choose which class I design next! Scroll to the bottom to vote.

This week I have a few great updates! But first...

I knew from the get-go that the Sorcerer should also have a gemstone, so not to be outdone by the Wizard!
The Sorcerer is also about having power from within, and more organic power than the studied mage, so after some sketching this is the design that felt the closest like a crest a Sorcerer would wear him or herself! I hope you like it!

Here's some process sketches:

Most importantly this week, I'm happy to announce my collaborator for this project- Jeszika Le Vye!
Jeszika is a huge inspiration of mine and I'm happy to call her a friend as well. She talked me into this from the start, so you can thank her if you're enjoying things so far!

We're doing something a little different from other projects. Both of our collections will be named INVOCATIONS and feature 12 crests or charms of the different classes, only with our own takes. I believe some of her designs will even be wearable jewelry. I think it's a pretty fun idea! You can find her page here:

I launched a Kickstarter this week!
It was really more of a shadow-drop and I was reluctant to mention it here as I don't want to use this space to advertise, but some of you may be interested. I'm creating several playmats / deskmats from my series of evocative statues.

The campaign funded in 1 hour and has been growing quickly every day which is outstanding!
If interested, you can find it here. Thank you for any support and be on the lookout for more designs:

Lastly, a bit of fun housekeeping:
You may not have noticed, but there's a new poll at the bottom of this project's pre-launch page! There, you can vote on any extras you'd like to see along with the pins. And any suggestions we all like from that poll's comments will be added to the overall poll. It's really a space to chat and hint to me what direction to take. I hope you'll take the time to dive in.

That's it for this week! 
I'm eternally grateful to everyone even following along, You really don't know how long I've wanted to do this. And thanks to Jeszika for pushing me toward it. It's good to have good friends!
