Hello everyone!

First: BIG FAT THANK YOU!

We funded within one hour and now we're approaching 4000€ (400% of our goal!). I'm grateful that so many of you have returned to this project despite it being a little different from my past ones, and I'm also grateful for all the new names I see in the backer list! Hello and welcome to everyone <3

All designs are auto-unlock in this campaign, but we still have stretch goals to hit!

We're 80% there for our first stretch goal at 5000 - if we hit it, we're making the mini bat and backers who went all in will receive the bat pin for free! And the higher we climb, the more backers will be eligible for that freebie.

To help us a bit to reach the stretch goal, I've added some older thematically fitting pins at a discount, limited to 10 pieces each for the price of what a B-Grade would normally cost.

Meet the messed up owl and the four eyed kitties - truuuuly terrifying, I know :D
These are in the add-ons for 12€ each, and there's 10 slots for each. 

I will have more stuff to reveal during this campaign, so stay tuned for more news :D We have something fun planned for the middle of the campaign <3

Thank you again for being here and enjoy Pintober!

Hellooooo people!
Who else can‘t believe it‘s already time for Pintober? A lot has happened since the last update behind the scenes so I thought I‘d show a bit of what awaits you in the campaign, so you don‘t have to read a million campaigns tomorrow at launch :D
If you like the campaign I would appreciate you backing earlier than later - keep in mind you will be charged *after* the campaign no matter when you pledge!
For a preview of your pin freebies, refer to this earlier update. I have also been sharing more of my progress on Discord with a smaller group for feedback and will continue to do so with most of my future campaigns. 

Some of the designs got a bit of a tweak since the first reveal. The overall ideas stayed, it‘s just some balancing of some shapes and lines. Note that these are still not the vectorized versions of the designs for production.

Just like last campaign, all main designs will be unlocked from the start. The stretch goal is another freebie you can get and the design has been slightly sharpened since the initial reveal too:

The owl gets to be a standalone sticker - the border will be black and the moon in the background will be semi-transparent on holographic vinyl so it gets a bit of a shine!

Last but not least, I‘m trying something new this time, dipping my toes into gold foiling. For this I‘ve put the pin designs in borders with backgrounds for a picturebook-esque look. 

There‘s also sticker variants of them, and to match the postcard theme I thought it‘d be cute to make them into postal stamps :D

And that’s it for now! We’ve reached a whooping 300 follows on this campaign, so let‘s hope for a strong start and unlocking the bat for everyone! 

Hello hello everyone!
Welcome to the FIRST Update (tm) of this campaign. Thank you for subscribing to the emails this early! There‘s over 200 of us already.
Today I bring you a little preview about the campaign freebies. The designs aren‘t 100% finalized yet but since my schedule is a bit packed in the coming weeks I thought I‘d share them now anyways. @.@

If you have any thoughts on these - do comment or join Discord (super tiny community currently where I post more granular updates across all campaigns, including future ones) :D

As so often we are teaming up with our friends from MadChildSoul and their campaign „Wandering Souls: Rise of the Immortals“. We prepared a fun evil(tm) duo - a snek and a cute little baby baphomet :D

For those who have never participated in a cross collab: you are eligible for both freebies if you back both campaigns, the reward will be added to your pledge after the campaign (you will be able to confirm it in your survey).

And there‘s three more pins that you can possibly get!

1. Stretch Goal Freebie
This freebie will be automatically unlocked if we hit certain campaign goals. If we hit the magic 5 digit mark - everyone will get it!
2. Pintober Group Collaboration
This one works similar to the cross collab, except you just have to back any 3 campaigns (including this one) to get it.
3. Returning Backer Freebie
A little thank you to everyone for being so loyal! Many of you have backed so many of my campaigns over the years and I want to reward you for it. If you have at least backed one of my old campaigns prior to this one, you qualify. It‘s a little nod to last year‘s Pintober campaign where everything had way too many eyes.

That‘s all for now! I hope you are all excited for Pintober like I am. 

Again thank you all so much for being here and making the pin community on BK such a pleasant space to be in!
