Project Update: Corgi Head Pin - Please read!!!! + Large Frankencorgi Update

First I had them not send the pins out in the end - they were going to when I made the first post and I was trying to come up with a solution for this since I have no idea how bad I missed this.

I have no idea why I paid for samples and didn't even pay attention to this one completely?? I have no idea how I missed this. Maybe I'm just rushing too much lately but at the time I approved a proof that was incorrect.

I have no idea why I noticed NOW after things have finished production but I have. Either way I mentioned it and they can remake them but obviously it's my mistake and I approved it so I do have to pay for it again.

It won't affect freebie pins really. I do plan to send these out but there are people who paid for pins and I don't find this version okay to send you.

The stuff that matters!! THE OPTIONS!

These are the options I think we have available for this atm (there was another involving epoxy and I don't like that idea, so it won't be included). IF YOU PURCHASED THIS PIN SPECIFICALLY (NOT A COLLAB FREEBIE) PLEASE MAKE IT CLEAR WHEN YOU COMMENT.

Option One:
Do nothing. I just accept I messed up and you guys get some janky looking pins. I think if you weren't aware of the design flaw it's probably not a big deal but I'm the artist, so I am going to be overdramatic and act like the world is ending. Personally I would be pissed if I preordered one (not everyone got this as a collab freebie mind you) to receive this as it doesn't match the other Frankencorgi designs.

Option Two:
For the existing pins, I can have them fill in the color just in the recessed area that you can see here. The main issue here is that it is liquid and can run. I think this looks okay? This solves the problem immediately without remaking the pins and just delays them a little while they fix them.

The left eyebrow filled in with paint


Option Three:
I completely remake this design and extend the time at which people will receive product an extra 30-60 days depending how long these take. I can request the other pins to be sent now in that case, just scrap these entirely and start them over since it needs a new mold.

Large Frankencorgi Update

I received safety test info this morning, so they are pretty close to production being completed. Obviously this is great but also not great lol. I obviously spent more than I made on this so I am going to be scrambling to try and get that last grand in sales since these are just so much money.

I am still like.. $1,031.74 away from paying off the large plush so like 17-18 large plush preorders worth. I don't have anymore events this month so we'll see what I can manage. 




What I raised for anyone who is like how can you not afford this? :D I'm trying, I really am lol.


Bonus Stuff
I sketched out some more frankencorgi puppies that still need to be cleaned up. Thinking of making a pattern or something for it for other merch (real dog bandanas maybe?)
