Quick Pledge Manager Update
over 6 years ago – Mon, Aug 14, 2017 at 12:27:09 AM

Hey all

So in between drug naps and catching up regular HF work I have gone through the list of feedback from Backerkit over the Pledge Manager and now it is back in review.

Based on the last time it should be another few days, and hopefully will just be fine to finally send out.

As for me, I'm afraid I'm still not 100%, which has put a big strain on regular HF work, which has then bundled over to this, 'but' it shouldn't do much more than delay the pledge manager as it has. Production doesn't rely on me etc so we should be fine.

I only have a few WIPs of the last 'Frost' minis for now, I'm expecting more but delays pushed Tre into his own KS so understandably he's also a bit busy. We'll fly through production on these though as everything else has been done. As mentioned in previous updates, we'll just push pledges which contain the guest sculptor sculpts to the end of fulfillment.

I'll do my best to keep updates coming this week, even if it's just some pics of big boxes of bagged metal minis or something :) Can't hurt right!

Pledge Manager Info (and a Metal Update)!

Hey everyone,

Right, this is the current situation. The Pledge Manager is finished, it has been for a few days now and I've run all the tests I can think of. It has passed them all, so you 'should' be able to do everything that you're supposed to with it :)

(Turns out there was a very hard to find option hidden in there that resolved the last issue with multi pledging).

However, it is sat in 'Review'. I am 'hoping' that it will be cleared today so we can send it out tomorrow, which was the plan. But if they don't clear it there isn't much I can do until Monday night. As that will mean we can't start fulfillment until Tuesday and technically be a day late I am not happy about that so everyone cross your fingers with me for a 'Cleared' email arriving today :) (Backerkit are PST so there's still a couple hours left yet before the end of the day).

So this update isn't just writing I thought I'd throw in a pic of one of our metal figures, which we finally photographed properly. I forgot how annoying photographing metal is!

I figured it was only right that the artist who's work inspired all of these minis gets to be our first metal pic :) (The mini is based on Matt Dixon, for those who had forgotten)

I also think it's a great example of our metal casters work, superb as always.

Whadya think?

Finished Sculpts #12 - Helen, Warrior through Time

Image first...

 Alright, I know you can't see a bunch of Winter and Mythic Helen's but there will be individual photos on the Pledge manager, this is more of a general 'Which one is Which' and a look at the different angles of her.

I 'love' the Celtic shield on the Winter one :)

I have a strong suspicion Helen will be the one a lot of you guys are waiting for.

Whadya think?

Next up is the Queen of Beasts...

 Our flail armed beastmistress is looking pretty good, even with her comedy Winter hat :)

(And yes, it's a flail, not a morningstar)

Whadya think?

Finished Sculpts #10 - Katarina

We've seen this one a lot as she was the first to have all 3 finished but for completeness...

 Again the Winter one, like Matthias, is very cross genre. Anything from fantasy through victoriana/pulp up to modern.

Whadya think?
