New Print Proofs have arrived!

Hey everyone!

We got the new art print proofs in last week! While the tweaks we made were relatively minor, we do think they resulted in an overall improvement. :) 

Take a look!

Now that we're happy with how those look, we've gone ahead and approved the print run. Once those come in we'll let you know!

Physical print proofs have arrived!

Hi everyone!

Got some exciting news for y'all today! Just the other day we received the physical proofs of the art prints we ordered. Take a look!

They look almost perfect, but we need to make some adjustments to the foil so it's not covering up his face. We'll be getting those changes over to the manufacturer today and will get another set of proofs before commencing with the full print run.

Once we get those in, we'll let you know! Stay tuned!

Art Prints Ordered!

Hi Everyone!

This is a quick update for everyone today, but we wanted to let y'all know that the art prints have been ordered and we should be getting the physical proofs for them in the mail soon! Once they come in, we'll be sure to share some pictures!

Once those are squared away, next up will be getting the bookmarks!

Art Print Designs Being Finalized for Production

Hi Everyone!

With surveys sent and most of them filled out, our first order of business is getting the smaller reward items made. The art prints will be first, then the bookmarks after that. We're getting the finalized print files for the art prints done this week and will likely be placing the order for them early next week. We'll update here again once those orders are placed!

After a short delay... The rest of the surveys are going out!

Howdy, folks!

The smoke test over the last few days was successful so we'll be sending the remaining surveys out this morning. It may take a little bit for Backerkit to process them, so we appreciate your patience!

Just to reiterate a couple of the tips from our last update, if you don't see your invite email show up by the end of the day today, please take a look at the following:

• Spam Folder: Survey emails can occasionally find their way to your spam folder. If you don't see anything come through from Backerkit check your spam folder first.
• Gmail Promotions Folder: We don't have any confirmation of this, but we've been seeing some people on Reddit and elsewhere mentioning that their Backerkit emails have been going to the "Promotions" folder in Gmail. Obviously, if you don't use Gmail, you can disregard this.
• Apple ID Email Addresses: If the email address tied to your Kickstarter account is a secure Apple ID address, the survey email may be blocked entirely. The email addresses look something like this:  "[email protected]".  If you're not seeing the email from Backerkit, check to see if your email address looks like one of these. If it does, we recommend that you first change that email in Kickstarter so you avoid any future issues.
• Once you've checked both of those things send us a message here or send an email to [email protected] to let us know what your updated email address is.

Going Forward

Here is what you can expect in the coming months as we work on fulfilling this project.

• First, please remember that we operate on a 12-14 month production and fulfillment schedule.
• As we get all of the products made, you can expect to see an update from us at least twice a month. So stay tuned here for all the latest!
• Once we have the products and are ready to start fulfillment, we will post an update and send an email giving everyone 48 hours to update their addresses if needed. Once that window closes, you will not be able to update your address yourself and will need to contact us directly to make those changes.
• With addresses locked, we will start packing and shipping. This final step will take some time. We appreciate your patience. ❤️
