Hey monster lovers!

We did it! The campaign has ended and we just barely managed to tip it over $18k funding which is incredible!! Thank you all so much for your support on this, it was so fun to make this new round of sexy monster boys for you and I can't wait to get them into your hands!

Now comes the obligatory "What's Next" spiel.

Over the next couple days, BackerKit will be charging backers' cards for their pledges. Typically, with large events like this, they stagger the payments so as to minimalize people's banks getting angry with so many payments going through all at once.

That being said, please keep an eye out on your email. If your payment goes through successfully, you'll receive an email saying as such. 

If your payment fails, you will receive an email with instructions on how to correct it. You'll have around ~7 days to correct your failed payment through the Crowdfunding side. If you don't correct it before then, you'll have to wait to correct it through your survey.

As a reminder, anyone whose payments fail to go through for 3 consecutive campaigns will be restricted from backing my campaigns in the future, so please double check that your payments go through!

Over the next week or so, I will be working on building the post-campaign Pledge Manager survey. You will use the survey to A) make your selections of which pins you want to receive and B) Input your shipping address so I know where to send your rewards. You'll also have the option to add more items through your survey as well!

Please note: your shipping payment DOES NOT go through when you submit your survey. Payments for shipping & survey add-ons will not be charged until much later, when I have the pins in-hand and I'm gearing up to start shipping.

Another note: Your credit card information in the survey may be outdated or not match what is on your Crowdfunding account, so please double check that you've entered your correct card information when you submit your survey otherwise your shipping payment might not go through.

If you selected Pay Over Time as your payment method, this is your reminder that you will not receive a survey until your pledge is paid for in full. You can wait the full 4 months for all your payments to go through or you can pay it off early - whichever is most convenient for you. You'll receive a link to your survey within 48 hours after your final payment successfully goes through.

Pay Over Time backers may receive a Google Form that they will need to fill out beforehand to help me get a more accurate estimate for how many pins I need to order. You will still need to fill out your official BackerKit survey as well in addition to the Google Form pre-survey otherwise you will not receive your rewards.

I was not able to finish all the mini prints before the campaign ended unfortunately. Over the next week I will be doing my best to get those finished up. My goal is to get them done before I send out the surveys, so you can see the final artwork for them and decide if you want to add them to your order!

Since the first stream was really fun, I decided to do it again! I will start streaming tomorrow, November 6th, around 1:00pm central time. As usual, you can either watch the stream here on the campaign page or you can watch it directly on my twitch channel: HoloRaindrops on Twitch

Since Willow was the runner up in the last poll, he is the one I will be working on tomorrow!

That's all for this update. Thanks again so much for making this such a successful campaign, you guys are the MVPs for real. I wouldn't be able to keep doing this without you guys. 💖 I hope you have a lovely weekend, and hopefully I see some of you tomorrow at the stream!

Cheers,
Rain
