Production Update + Pledge manage reminder
over 2 years ago – Sat, Aug 07, 2021 at 01:11:50 PM

Hey all, hope you are well. Thanks to all 87% of you who have already completed your pledge info in Backerkit. To the remaining 13% of backers who have not yet, check your email for access to Backerkit and finalize your order as soon as you can. We will likely leave the manager open for another month or so, while we finalize the molds for the miniatures, but appreciate if you could complete your order sooner than later. Thanks and message me for any issues. 

The World of Sol'an continues to grow....the campaign content.  Colin has been busy writing up new content to add to our ever-expanding world of Sol'an that was created to accompany the miniatures. This FREE-ACCESS content can be picked apart and added to any campaign, or followed fully for an exciting campaign for levels 1-10 that incorporate many of the miniatures from the Wildspire miniatures sets.

This current project will add monster stat blocks, descriptions, and art for the Monsters of Sol'an miniatures. Additionally, setting information for Pulstram (capital city of Lonellome), a new avoral  subrace, and several subclasses will be added to the Heroes of Sol'an PDF.  Finally, we will add a level 10 dungeon adventure meant to close out this portion of the campaign in a separate document.

The Beer Golem....evolves!

We had to rework the Beer Golem design because the previous design was too thin in some parts and difficult to assure the quality of the final molded plastic.  So, we redesigned it and hope you like it.  The new version features a broken bottle arm, improved wood texture, beer rocket propulsion, and more.  Hope you like it. 

Update on miniature production.  Production of the minis is underway. The grey dragon (below) is an exact copy of the final version that you can expect to receive in your pledge ( we may change the color of the plastic though), while the off-white colored smaller minis are pre-mass production samples. It is estimated they will need another 8 weeks to complete molds and mass production + packaging, etc. More pics to come!

Thanks! As always, reach out to me with any questions by messaging directly.

Backerkit Pledge Manager Sending out Today
almost 3 years ago – Thu, Jul 15, 2021 at 05:47:43 AM

 Hi all, the Backerkit Pledge manager will begin sending out this evening. It will first go out to a small number of random backers before it sends to all. This is just to test that everything is ok before you all get it, then will finish sending out to all tomorrow (Thursday). Sorry for the delay!

You will receive an email from Backerkit at the email you have registered with your kickstarter account.  Please check spam folder just in case. If you don't receive it by end of day tomorrow, please send me a message and I will help look into it. 

Reminder that shipping was not charged during the Kickstarter, so it will be charged in Backerkit along with shipping fees for any add-ons you choose.   

The pledge-manager for backers will likely stay open up until the October or so,  or the date which we start to ship everything out. If you don't fill out the pledge manager, then we won't know where to ship your pledge. Please help us out to fill it out at your earliest convenience. 

Message me for any questions  :)

Thanks!

almost 3 years ago – Wed, Jul 07, 2021 at 12:23:36 PM

Hi all, we have begun making pre-mold samples of the minis, below is a RAW video of the Bookish Dragon.  More and better images to come. 

Pledge Manager. Sending out Soon! By the end of this weekend, we will send you another update (same as this one via Kickstarter), in which we will announce that the Backerkit pledge manager has been emailed out to you all. Backerkit is the service that allows us to accurately collect your shipping info, additional add-on purchases,  tracking info, etc.  Be on the lookout or we will remind you till eternity to complete your pledge info. You cannot receive your pledge unless you complete your pledge info in Backerkit!

Thanks!

Success! Campaign is over! Whats next?
almost 3 years ago – Tue, Jun 22, 2021 at 10:38:54 PM

Funded! Thank you very much! Including stretch goals (yes the Hell Pug Stretch goal was unlocked),  there is a total of 68 miniatures.  Really excited to make these for you all. 

Whats next: We will be working with our producer on converting the 3D models to physical molds. This process usually takes 1-3 months. We will give updates and send you pictures of the progress along the way.  After the molds are complete, mass production will begin (estimate around August/September) and finish by November/December. Final Delivery is still estimated to be February 2022. Updates will be coming along the way. 

The pledge manager is Backerkit. If you have not used it before, it is basically just a purchase check-out platform that allows us to collect your accurate shipping address, track orders and also process any add-ons you would like. REMINDER: this is also where shipping charges based on your address will be calculated and charged. The Backerkit email invitations will be sent out in the next few weeks so you can finalize your order. Late pledges will be open up until the time that production begins. 

Thank You!
