Bringing 22 of our favorite artists around the world together, we are making a second set of two fantasy pinup calendars featuring characters from the Beast World. One features 12 masculine characters in tantalizing scenes and poses, and the other 12 feminine characters in saucy cheesecake art~!
Each 12-month 2024 calendar is 12"x12" on glossy 157 GSM art paper. The most noteworthy holidays of the Beast World such as the Foxencat and the Evening of the Veil are marked in each. You can choose between the masculine or feminine version, or get both for $5 off (the bisexual discount)!
This year, each character will also have our NPC roleplaying guidelines, the same sort that's attached to every character in the books we publish! This is a work in progress and has gone through neither design passes or editing, so it will probably look a bit different when you've got the calendar in your hands.
Ongoing Stretch Goal: Character Pins at $33,095 funded
We're bringing Amy Amour and Jaden the Bard to a lapel near you! Should we reach our goal, you'll be able to take Amy, Jaden, or Varasta himself with you wherever you go. These 2-inch pins will be printed in vibrant color, with art by Beast World pin artist Waker!
These will be available as add-ons, each for $15 USD - or as a trio for a discounted bundle. And as a special treat, those who back at this project's highest tier will get to pick one pin of their choice for free! This is our gift to you.
Possum, sheep, and fox! Oh my~
"Why $33,095, exactly?"
Because that was our total amount raised from last year's calendars. Why not have some fun with it, eh?
All of this art is made by real humans around the community, and we've priced them to give all twelve in each calendar fair pay. See below for more budgeting information!
Heartleaf Games has worked with over 170 furry artists from all over the community, and we've asked a whole bunch of them to help us produce the coming year's calendar! Here's the full list:

Once more this year, we've asked the artists to do a bit extra... by stripping some of their subjects down a little bit. We're also offering two sets of 12High-quality prints, featuring NSFW alts of the calendar pages. We can't show them off here, but we can mail them to you via donkey post, in a discreet black envelope...
Gold foil is stamped into the front. This is the primo stuff.
These prints are huge: 12"x12" on 200 GSM cardstock. We're springing for soft-touch lamination too, so these are nice enough to go straight into a frame and on your wall.
Shipping costs are divided into just two categories: domestic US backers, and the rest of the world (excluding Australia)
United States: $10 Shipping & Handling
Rest of the World: $20 Shipping & Handling
Shipping costs to Australia are still crazy a year later, unfortunately, and could cost as much as twice as much as other destinations. We'll still get it to you if you order it, but just be aware!
We're using the same manufacturers as last year's calendars and prints, so we are ready to go with printing! Beginning the project a little earlier and streamlining our production also enables us to get the calendars into your hands and on your walls in time to enjoy January's art properly. We expect final printing to begin before the project is finished, with your support telling us how much we need to order (as we always order extra stock).
Outside of unforeseen delays with shipping and mail, we expect things to go smoothly! The production for this project also runs in parallel with Heartleaf's other TTRPG productions, and does not interfere with them at all. We love working with our artists and giving them a chance to create new things with us.
