Thank you again for a successful Pintopia!! Surveys for you to choose your pins are going out in the next few days! There was a brief Backerkit outage so I need a bit more time to finish setting them up. You can expect to see them in your inbox very soon! In the meantime, if your card was declined please make sure to update your payment method ASAP.
If you would like to add any additional 'Jurassic Attack!' items or pins from previous campaigns you will be able to do so in the survey! And if you qualified for any freebie bonuses during the campaign they will automatically be included.
Please fill out your survey as soon as possible, even if you think you might need to change something later! You will have some time to edit your survey if necessary, but I need your responses in to make the right amount of pins, so the sooner you answer the sooner I can get them all out to you!
🦖 IMPORTANT 🦖 Pay Over Time Backers:
If you pledged using Pay Over Time your surveys will not go out until your pledge is paid in full. Because of this, I'd like to ask any backers using Pay Over Time to please email me with their tentative pin choices, so I can more accurately estimate the correct amount needed. (If you pledged for the All-In tier you don't need to contact me, assuming you do want one of everything!) :)
Thank you and please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions at all!
We're LESS THAN 24 HOURS out from the end of Pintopia now! If you're still deciding on what/whether to back here's a few updates for you!
COMPY PIN TIERS!
In response to a few requests, I've added Compsognathus blind bags as tiers, both 3 bag sets, and full sets! Additionally, to clarify whether multiple blind bags could have duplicates, my partner and I (who helps me pack and fulfill everything ♥) will do our best to ensure we don't send anyone duplicates.
EXCLUSIVE LIMITED EDITION VARIANTS!
Just as a reminder, all alternate color pins are exclusive to the campaign—you must be a backer to purchase them. I only do one run of Limited Edition pins and they are individually numbered during production and not produced again once sold out. I may have some leftovers after the campaign but to ensure you can get the ones you want, please make sure to become a backer.
Backers will have access to additional pins in their surveys, so you can always add pins later if you want (though pin tier discounts will not be available, so please take advantage of those now!)
Here's a handy chart of all the regular-size dinos from the campaign in both colors! (ignore the compys lol)
PINTOPIA COLLAB FREEBIES!
If you're pledging to multiple different Pintopia projects make sure to take advantage of cross-collab freebies! My two freebies are the BLACK SPARKLE COMPY and the CASSOWARY pin! You can get both of these FREE (+ even more pins from other artists!) by backing multiple campaigns! They will be available separately after the campaign, but of course, they won't be free anymore!
EVERYTHING FUNDED! CHOOSE ANYTHING!!!
Last but not least, EVERYTHING has been funded!!! Even the giant t-rex (YAY!) Thank you SO much to everyone pledging, it's so exciting and I'm looking forward to making these dinos come (back) to life!
So here's a thank you, in advance, for your support! But again there's still less than a day left! So if you want to become a new backer or make any adjustments to your pledge, please do so! 🙏 And if you have ANY questions at all don't hesitate to ask!
I hope the last update got you wondering which dinos were in those eggs? Well, time to reveal!
These are the final 3 stretch goals for the campaign!
The giant egg thief Gigantoraptor! And the crocodile-like Suchomimus! These were the two runners-up in the poll, so they get the last two slots in this pin series! Fun fact: Suchomimus was reworked out of a Baryonyx sketch I did that I scrapped! They're very similar species!
Now for a BIG final stretch goal!
Do the color schemes look familiar?
Yes a MASSIVE DINO PIN! If you followed my previous campaign, Chimera, you may have seen my Giant Chimera pins I made for that project.
They came out looking stunning and I wanted to do another oversized pin for 'Jurassic Attack!'
They are now available as add-ons to any tier OR I made a Giant T-Rex tier if you just want a giant pin or want to work your add-ons around it instead.
NEW TIER / ADD-ONS
I've added a 15 pin tier, since 3 new regular-sized pins were added since the beginning of the campaign, and I've re-enabled the All-In tier which now includes the 6 new regular-sized pins, the 2 giant rexes, and everything else.
There's still 6 days left in the campaign so I think there's enough time to get these funded with your help!! Make your way to the campaign page to update your pledge (or make a pledge if you haven't done so yet)!
Thank you so much again for your interest and support! So happy to share my love of dinos with other dino lovers, or just animal/fantasy enthusiasts, whatever you may be!
Thank for everyone for voting in the poll for the next dino pin! The winner was...
Another raptor joins the Jurassic Attack! roster! This bulky predator was (until very recently!) the largest Dromaeosaurid ever discovered. Much larger than even Deinonychus, this raptor would have been a fearsome sight! We have two striking colors: a fiery plummage and a blood-red coat with icy features.
We're just over a week away from the end of Pintopia, but there's still more to come! Stay tuned for the last few surprises hatching soon!
Large Reward Tiers & Pay Over Time
I've temporarily removed the All-In Reward Tier to account for new pins, if you were planning on pledging to that. It will come back, along with another tier in between!
Additionally, I've had a few requests to enable Pay Over Time. I've enabled this to allow backers more leeway to pledge for larger tiers! For backers that choose Pay Over Time I just request that since your surveys do not go out until your payments are complete that you message me after your first payment with your tentative pin choices so that I can have the correct amount made. This is especially important because some pins are Limited Edition and only one production run is made. As with regular pledges please check out my FAQ and Backerkit's FAQ page for more details!
Thank you again for your support on Jurassic Attack! I'm so grateful for great the turnout on my first project on this platform! If you have any questions please feel free to reach out! :)
After only 30 something hours we are already on track to fund ALL PINS!! This is absolute craziness, and I can't thank you all enough for this amazing outpouring of support. This is my first project on BackerKit, I'm usually on Kickstarter so I really had no idea how it would go, I figured we'd inch our way to the goals over the course of the campaign but not blast through them all so quickly. I'm astounded and so grateful. ♥
Hopefully that means you want MORE DINOS... right??
Check out the attached poll and vote on which dino you'd like to see the most as the next stretch goal! I have another stretch goal planned but figured it would be better to just show you when it's done. :) It'll be BIG......
Thank you so much again, and I'd love to hear what you think so far! ♥
