Howdy, Paleo Pals! It's the final stretch!! We have officially tipped over into the last 24 hours of the Paleo Pals: Series 2 campaign, and have a few last-minute goodies we're excited to share before we wrap up and get production moving...

The artwork is still in the drafting stages, but we couldn't contain ourselves. LOOK HOW CUTE THEY ARE. Both versions of the washi tape are available now in the campaign add-ons for $7 a piece! Each printed paper washi roll will be 20mm wide, and the fossils on the "Fossilized Washi" will be printed in metallic gold!

Similarly, we hear you guys loud and clear: if given the choice, smaller stickers! For those who don't have space on their pinboards, we're hoping to offer themed sticker packs of our paleo pals designs, ideally sets of six 1.5~2" stickers each, bundled together in a herd for safety. Themes like "dinosaur sticker pack", or "aquatic sticker pack", stuff of the sort! These will be available in the survey add-ons once we sort out who goes where.

All artwork pictured are mockups, the carboniferous era washi especially will receive some polish in the coming days. If you'd rather hang tight until the artwork is done, everything listed here will be available in the survey add-ons!

After the campaign concludes tomorrow at 2:00pm CDT, sit tight for your post-campaign survey so you can pick out your rewards! Your survey may take a few days to reach you, so hold tight if yours doesn't arrive right away. Expect one more big update once surveys start rolling out!

We are on-track with the projected timeline, so backers will have until October 19th to fill out their survey. From there, we'll gather up the order information, charge cards for orders, and pins will go into production. We're hoping to ship early January, but we'll have plenty of production updates throughout the months to keep you all updated, and get a peek at the pins as they're made 👀

As far as projects coming up, we have a few appropriate for the spooky season as fall creeps in...

Wonderful news! Hell's gates are open, are everyone is free to go... except Satan. He must first ensure everybody else leaves before he too is freed. So, what of the sinners who wish to stay?

I am proud to return as collaborator with my partner and behind-the-scenes manager Atom to bring you RED HELL: Forgive the SIN, the sequel to our digital metafiction BLUE HELL project. Guide demons out of hell in this unholy interactive pin campaign! There's angels, devils, robots, drama, gore, and stickers!

An alien parasite has crash-landed in the enchanted woods, warping the magic of the land into something unrecognizable. Part pin campaign, part monster manual, Blighted Bestiary is a folk legend gone wrong. 

Inspired by The Thing (1982), Dredge, and tabletop RPGs, Blighted Bestiary will be debuting as part of Pintober 2026, just in time for Halloween!

I mean this more every time I say it, but thank you all from the bottom of my heart!! On top of absolutely SWEEPING all the goals we set out in a matter of days, $12k is not an insignificant number, and it's STILL climbing as we enter the final hours.

I'd be remiss if I did not thank the stellar Atomic [backerkit] for all the amazing work they do helping out with manufacturing and vector wizardry. Go support RED HELL, they're an incredible storyteller and I personally cannot WAIT until what they're cooking up goes live! And of course, my gratitude goes out to all of you guys, be it backer, follower, or passerby who took the time to read this far! I'm always blown away by all of your excitement for my art, and hope to keep sharing it and making neat stuff for as long as we're able to. 

Thank you all again, we'll catch you very soon with the surveys and next steps!
