How Do you Build an Army of Denarii's?
The answer? With a watchful eye, of course! Our first batch of Denarii mini's came in the mail recently. I wish we could say we were pleased as punch, but in truth the quality of the figures we ended up with didn't match the proof we'd been sent as a sample. The printer is unwilling to budge, so after a moment of blind rage, we've decided to do another run of prints, this time with a different vendor. We're absolutely committed to making sure what you guys get looks and feels fantastic!
The First Two Pages Are Finished, And They Look Fantastic!
Shof, Funlola and I would like to say "thank you", to everyone who's backed us, commented, liked shared, and told friends about the Outcasts of Jupiter Kickstarter. We crested $2,000 a couple of days ago, which just about puts us on track to hit our goal of $9,500... just about! But we need your help...
Our Kickstarter Launches on Tuesday, 8th of April at 8am PDT!
First, an exciting announcement; we're officially launching the Outcasts of Jupiter Kickstarter tomorrow, on Tuesday, 8th of April at 8am PDT. We're absolutely going to need your support to get things off to a good start, so we hope you'll pick up a copy!
Shof, Funlola and I have worked hard to make sure all the Kickstarter rewards we offer are really high quality, and super duper cool. Apart from digital and print versions of the comic, we'll also have available things like handmade pins, T-shirts, posters, art prints, buttons, limited edition statues, a handmade bust, and more.
Shof's Amazing Denarii Sculpt is Finished. Here it is!
One of the rewards we're hoping to offer as part of our impending Kickstarter is a 7 inch statue/figure of Denarii. I teased this in a previous blog post that showed off a smaller, cuter figure. This meant that Shof had to create a really, really cool looking 3D model for us to base the actual print on. How did he do? No words, just have a look...
We're Launching a Kickstarter, and this is the Cover of Our Incredible Comic!
It feels great to finally be able to say that. Shof and I have been working on this for months and months. We've done a ton of research into how to get a really high quality book printed, and put even more work into writing the story, getting the art started and figuring out the inner workings of Kickstarter, fulfillment centers, printers and more.
Naming Things is Really, Really Hard
For a while now we've been referring to the comic we're working on as "Tales from the Jonahverse", a name that's not quite accurate. You see, the title Tales from the Jonahverse is intended as an umbrella name for the different stories, featuring different characters and different genres that take place in the universe we've dreamt up.
