Here are the new prototype pics I received today! The body is much better, but the head needs another round of edits. They added a neck by elongating his head which does not look right, lol. The neck should be part of the body pattern. I have high hopes for the 3rd round of edits.
They fixed his paws which I'm so happy about! I am seeing if they could potentially embroider paw pads on the bottom of each paw... I think that could look really cool!
Here are the edits I'm sending!
Plus I sent them some reference photos of other wolf plush heads to help!
And Tina has informed me that the place they got the noses for my foxes is shutting down so I had to pick a new nose. I selected nose number 2 because I like the nostrils better. Number 1 is closer to the original nose, but it looks too much like pig nostrils to me. There have also been a couple minor fabric changes as well due to company closures. I figured I should update you all on that too :)
For those ordering Magpie wolf or Coyote pigeon please let me know how you feel about this prototype so far! I am not opposed to going back to the old manufacturer and reworking that one as well. I am also not opposed to doing an order from each manufacturer IF I can afford it since Tina will allow an MOQ of 50 for me. And the other manu I can order as few as 25. There would need to be an almost 50/50 split between the 2 versions for this to be possible.
BUT I need to hear people's thoughts and opinions. It's your money funding these so tell me what you think! I don't bite :)
Also if I go with Tina's wolves the future price for them on my website would have to be $150 at least. They cost me almost twice as much to have made! The price will remain $100 for Backerkit supporters here.
Here's hoping in 2 weeks coyote pigeon from Tina will be finished and finalized! As always feel free to message me for any help or questions with your order ❤️
