Project Update: Pins are here! + Link to summer pin sale
They are here! Stickers are also here as well~ The pudgy bird stickers ended up being bigger than expected, I intended 1.1" and 2.2" but I think they're 1.5" and 3". Which is ok I guess, bigger stickers are not a bad thing~ I wanted the proportions to be right compared to the main birds but they're just gonna be big babies
First, a quick link to the summer pin sale event that I'm joining on Backerkit! It's a July group launch and all the pins will be discounted things that are ready to ship. The details are all being worked out but there will be project incentives and I'm sure within the event there will be benefits again for backing multiple projects~

Back to this project...
It's going to take me a little bit to quality check them all... I'll try to get it done quickly but it may be 2 weeks to check/put them on cards. Then shipping will start~
bluebirds are also here just not in the photo ><
The bad news, I also need to ask my manu to remake a few designs.
The bleeding heart dove's body is too dark, it should be a lightish blue grey... The grey cockatiels' bodies are too dark... The canada goose's neck is too light... and the mallards are just off. Green is too mountain dew green on the male, and the female is just a funky hotdog color without much distinction from the printed areas/body color. The mallards I'm worried about remaking since their colors were hard to pick to begin with, so I'm hoping there isn't an issue with the remakes as well. But these six definitely all need to be fixed! I'll get it right
So if your order contained any of these it'll be more of a wait until shipment.
I'd rather everyone get the intended pins, but just to give the option... if you're ok with these weird pins feel free to message me at [email protected] and I can have your orders out as planned! I'll throw in a couple stickers for the trouble
I didn't wipe the dust and stuff off on these next photos so don't mind that... all the pins you receive will all be good quality!
They mallards look somewhat ok in these photos but I promise they aren't right lol. The print in real life is a lot lighter. The female has almost no distinction between colors. The orangey color on the wing tips of the male are also lighter and clash with the body. And the head is just way too light and mountain dewy. Also didn't photograph a closeup the bleeding heart doves (they're in the group photo above) but I definitely need to get those remade lighter as well.
The cool thing is the canada geese wing print for some reason looks like nail polish? It's a bit glittery and really pretty. The photos make it look intense but it's subtle and just looks nice in the light.
Everything else looks pretty spot-on to how I intended, so I'm quite relieved with that! I've never had to pick colors for so many pins before and it is very nerve wracking lol.
