    Our first kickstarter just went live! It runs through March 27 until 11:59 PST. Check it out Here => https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/677174180/weasels-on-easels-growing-one-goal-at-a-time

    Here’s to (hopefully) being successful on the first try! Even if you can’t support it financially, we still appreciate any help at all even if it’s just sharing online or telling a friend! That’s what makes it “community” funded! Thanks to the many people who helped me get it together and those who helped me proofread!

    For those who would like a laugh, if you listen really carefully, you can hear my cat during the instrumental. She likes to stand on her back paws and rub my face and meow whenever I play my flute. We’ll try to get an out-takes video link on there in a week if wee can. Thanks everyone and to Windstone for hosting such a wonderful, and fun forum community!!!

      There shouldn’t be anymore, I am pretty sure we got them all fixed yesterday but, we could have missed something. if you find anything then sure, just shoot me a pm, and I’ll get it fixed.

        I can’t spare any funds just now, but I did post your Kickstarter on my Facebook and on dA. I hope it helps!

          There has been discussion of having a Windstone kickstarter – and I think John would like to do one – but it has never actually happened (as far as I know).

            FINALLY I got a chance to Pledge for your Kickstarter, but at only 13 HOURS left to go you have quite the task to have your Kickstarter backed….

            What happens if it isn’t funded?

            I’m pushing as hard as I can. If it fails, I redo it it all and we run it again. We get nothing and you lose nothing if it fails.
            We only get anything if we make our goal.

            PLEASE! If anyone can give us a bump and a push! We have 6 hours to make our goal!!

            Didn’t make it. We are gonna try again, but I am gonna first see if we can revise it and make it better. I am gonna try to find some people who have run successful kickstarters and see if we can get help setting it up.

              Thant would be awesome! Most of all, I wish we were not so limited in what we can offer for the perks.

                Finding decent perks is a serious pain in the butt. My resin doll kickstarters were okay, because casting batches of stuff gets cheaper the more popular the campaign is, but with the plush one I just launched… ugh. I have to make every reward individually! I do hope it succeeds, but I could be in trouble if it does *too* well. (Although there’s worse problems to have.)

                I will say that 2-d art campaigns are fighting a real uphill battle. There are so many sources for lovely drawings and paintings that it’s really hard to compete and grab people’s attention. You have to compete on price, or be super unique, or do *something* to stand out.

                I suspect that having the first original turn up at the $150 level (and that being a pre-painted picture, not something where the backer would have any input) might have hurt you guys, perk-wise. Prints are everywhere, and postcards in particular aren’t actually that much of an attention-getter. My experience has been that with art, there’s more market for personalized art especially, but prints are *really* hard to get anyone excited about.

                  Maybe fabric items (T shirts and tote bags) would be more attractive perks? I know that 96037 makes things like that.
