And here’s Aspen again, with more photos!






Now that their samples are done, I can send the surveys out! They are just about ready to send out, I will probably do the smoke test in a couple days and then send out the rest shortly after.

Along with the surveys, I’ll open the preorder store as well for those who missed the campaign!

Aspen is now finished! We had a lot of issues getting his eyes done the way I wanted but they finally go it right! 😍

His smile is slightly crooked but that will be adjusted before he ships to me haha 😂

I had my manufacturer match fabrics as close as possible with pantone colors I provided. We went through lots of fabric colors together and I picked these color out of what was available. Fabric is one of the more difficult thing to match for color when it comes to producing products unfortunately. I have fabric swatches book coming from my manufacturer so that I have all of the available fabrics from their factories they source from. 

I should be getting the book in a few days, and after receiving it there's a chance that I might change the colors on Aspen again, but we went through colors for a long time and a couple different times and I am pretty sure these colors are as close as we are gonna get to how I had intended Aspen to look.

I got the extra photos and videos from my manu and as it turns out, I was right and the feet weren't fixed properly. So we are going to have another round of adjustments for Nox. Another thing with his was his legs being so far apart. I asked them to fix this as well and maybe thicken his legs a bit as well.

I should see the new revisions on the plushies this week hopefullly!

I got a lot of comments and messages from people saying they just missed the campaign and were interested in getting some plushies 😍 so I will be opening the preorder store within the next couple of weeks. Probably around the same time I get the surveys sent out. So keep an eye out for that if you weren't able to get in on the campaign!

If you pledged on the campaign, it is recommended that you do not use the preorder store to order more items, instead use your survey to add on extra items. If you pledged on the campaign and then order from the preorder store, it will be 2 separate transactions and 2 shipping charges.

Thank you guys! As always, I'll keep you posted on the samples!

As I stated before, he was not as far along as the others, so with this revision there’s still a lot left to do (and….. for some reason some of the things I asked for to be adjusted weren’t done but I think it’s because the revisions were asked for right before CNY holiday and maybe it was missed for they forgot… not sure)

Here’s the photos I got:

And here’s the revisions that are going to be done:

Also, the antlers seems too flimsy still, I asked that they be more sturdy and maybe a little thicker.

The only thing about Nox is that they didn’t send me very many photos last night and by the time I asked for more I think they were already out of office (It was Saturday for them and I think they don’t stay whole days on Saturdays). The feet don’t look quite how I want them to so I will need to see it better and if they aren’t right, we will be adjusting them. They are supposed to be more cone shaped and not foot shaped lol. Other than that, I think he looks great but we will see when I get some videos and more photos tomorrow!

Also, Nox’s enamel pin design is almost finished! I’ll share it in the next update!

I’m probably going to wait to send out surveys until these two samples are finished completely, so about another 1-2 weeks. Possibly longer but my manufacturer is pretty good about their timing and communication.

That’s all for now!
