Premade buying info, $50 tier commission info, enamel pin updates
🕑 Added 2020-05-05 15:25:15 +0000 UTCHey guys! I've had people asking so I wanted to make an official post about how the selling of the premades will work, as well as updating those on the $50 tier about my next commission opening.
I will have four premade partials for sale soon, hopefully around the end of May or beginning of June. They will include a head, hands, and tail. The suits and color schemes are as follows:
- toony goat with blue eyes, white fur, latte/caramel spots, and long brown horns
- toony goat with yellowy orange eyes, orange & mint fur, and pistachio colored nub horns
- semi-realistic wolf with sunrise (or sunset colors depending on how you look at it). Purples, oranges, reds, and yellows. Hoping to do some fun airbrushing on this one.
- semi-realistic gremlin wolf, black fur with bright pink/yellow/aqua markings. Possibly some crazy hair, we'll see. XD
All of them are foam based with static jaws. I don't plan to install fans but I can for an extra fee. The wolves are smaller and are a bit more form fitting with adjustable straps (check out Gau the wolf for proportions). The goats are much larger for a more toony look and balance on your head with an adjustable baseball hat system.
How buying one will work
One of the Patreon perks is that you guys get first chance at all of these before they go public! When they are compete or nearing completion, I will make an official post about them being open for offers. The $50 tier gets the first chance to nab these as it's one of their rewards.
- Offers will be open to the $50 tier exclusively for three days (not yet, I'll post when I'm ready). If you're on that tier and interested, you'll need to e-mail me your best and final offer. I'll have a minimum base price listed for each partial, so you'll know what price ballpark I'm looking for. And yes it's perfectly acceptable to offer the base price! :) I'm not 100% sure on it yet but the base price will be somewhere around $2300. The person with the highest offer will win the suit. In the event of a price tie the person with the highest lifetime pledge will win.
- Any partials that do not have offers will be open to all other patrons after the 3 day period. I will accept offers for another three days with the same rules. The person with the highest offer will win, and ties will be broken by the highest lifetime pledge regardless of tier.
- Normally I'd ask for 100% up front, but with current events I will likely do a payment plan. I'm not for sure what I'm doing yet, but likely 50% up front and the rest split over six months.
- If any suits remain they will be put up for offers on Twitter.
$50 Commission Open This Summer
I will be opening this summer for a commission slot, so if your'e interested keep an eye out! I was originally planning to open this month, but I'm having some serious supply chain issues. The last thing I want to do is take someone's money and not be able to actually start on anything. :( Some things I haven't been able to get at all or are VERY slow include:
- glass cabochons for realistic eyes
- filament for the 3d printer
- elastic
- lining materials like spandex/quilted cotton
- acrylic paint and sealant
- certain furs/fabrics
- etc etc
I prefer to take on a partial commission because of all the uncertainty, but I'd also be up for a fullsuit or head only commission. I'm not looking to do small parts like tails or paws by themselves right now. If you're on the $50 tier (or considering it), feel free to e-mail me with your reference sheet and we can talk about your project if you have any questions. :) stuffedpandaquotes@gmail.com
If multiple people are interested in a commission, the person with the highest lifetime pledge will be offered a slot first.
Enamel Pin Reward
Last but not least topic of discussion is the enamel pin reward. I am still planning on ordering these, but I'm waiting for things to calm down a bit before I do. There are several things I ordered from China back in early March that keep bouncing around from city to city without leaving the country (I'm looking at you glass cabochons!), so I'm not keen on dropping money on pins that may or may not make it here. Rest assured that Patreon automatically made a list of everyone who is supposed to receive the reward, so even if you have to leave or change your pledge a pin will come to you whenever I can get them. Thank you guys SO much for you patience on this, it's been a bit crazy and frustrating trying to get supplies.
You guys are awesome, thank you for your continued support! <3
P.S. If anyone needs a cotton face mask hit me up. My sister, mom, and I have been making and donating them locally so I don't mind making some and shipping them to you guys too.
