Project Update: Ongoing Progress for Gnawesome Predators!
Hey all! Just checking in to let you know that stuff is getting chipped away at. There's lots of little things happening and I don't have many details to share on each individual one but they still make a heck of a pile, so:
- All regular pins and many recolors are available for pre-order on Lairbrew.com! If you are looking for an alt. color pin that isn't up, I ordered few enough of those that I will need to grade the shipment before I can put any additional ones up for sale.
- Gold line gator and chicken stickers have arrived! I will try to remember to snap photos before the next update, but they turned out really nice.
- All other stickers are currently in manufacturing. I have not heard back on them in a moment and plan to check in with them soon.
- Many pins have not begun manufacturing. They are still in the proof review stage. I have been continually told I will have them before July, but I am very much doubting that at this stage.
- Currently 25 pins have been readied for production out of the over 40 designs. More than halfway there, but not as far along as I would have preferred to have going by now.
Pin Samples
Last time I shared some unfinished pins that didn't have screen printing or anything like that done. Here's some more, now with screen printing in some cases! Also a little reminder that many of these pin sets are B I G . That's why each set was as high a cost as it was. The raptor is among the largest because of the pose, since pins are sized specifically to look proportional to one another's snacks. For the most part the started at 2.5in and they were sized up or down (usually up) to make sure the faces were the correct size for the meats.
Not everything turned out perfect. Here are a couple problem pins. For the unicorn, they moved forward with some incorrect layers on and didn't run a proof by me so it has a lot that is getting changed- for example it having 2 different tail ends. The eyes will also be recessed metal like the ear and hooves, not bright orange. For the CMYK potion dragon, screenprinting light yellow on black enamel didn't go down so hot. It is being changed to black screenprinting on yellow enamel instead!
Here's the error cannibal unicorn with a 2-bone meat attached. The meat is upside down, but part of the fun is you'll be able to attach it however you'd like!
That's all I really have to say for now! You wanna see some cute lil dudes I'm working on? Some of them might seem familiar!
I want to make some affordable, adorable little plush that are nice enough to display but fun feeling enough to mess with. They're 4 and a half inches tall, have glass beads filling their dumpy lil bods, and they should have a pretty low price point, though what that will be will depend on transport prices by the time I finally get to make them. I know a lot of you here will appreciate the gnawesome predator cameos! They're done in the same style as the Bantam Burials I'm working on for Deadweights.
Anyway! I'm focusing on Big Brew Bash fulfillment right now, but whenever I get significant news I'll still come over here to share it. I'll see you then!
