Last Chance to Update Addresses 48 Hours! Sending out Rewards in Batches
about 1 year ago – Mon, Feb 20, 2023 at 10:45:48 AM

Hello! Back from the conventions and prepping to send out rewards this month! If you have recently moved please try to go to your Backerkit email or if you made an account you can update your address directly from there! If your having any trouble please message me thru Kickstarter with your new address. 

 Link to Open your BackerKit Survey 

After everyone is set with their shipping addresses the first batch of rewards will be sent out! All the pins, stickers, cards are available. With Packing & Grading I will be sending as much as I can thru this month. 

Prints in Progress! Finishing by the end of April!

For Freebie Prints I finished up Cyno, Coloring Itto Now, and Kaeya & Eula are Sketched! To not delay peoples rewards I will be sending out the rewards that have just the completed print designs. Which would end up taking a few weeks with that number being around 300 orders. During those weeks I will be finishing the new prints between the batches of orders.

For the rest of the designs that have not yet been sketched is to give them the faster Genshin Gulp Style that will have Raiden Shogun, Xiao, and Ganyu in Harujuku Street Fashion. For Diluc, I'm going to stick with the more painterly style for consistency with the Kaeya sketch. If you guys would like a genshin gulp design instead for the Keaya & Diluc designs please let me know!  

I do want to apologize for not having completed all of freebie prints yet due to conventions and fulfilling other responsibilities.  I was definitely over estimating the time I would have between pin production while also being excited to expand my print collection. I know these are just Freebies but I always want to give the best quality I can for you guys and your support. If their are Backers that would like to change their prints designs to the completed ones please message me thru Kickstarter and I can change them directly.

The Completed Print Designs Currently Are: 

• Venti
• Zhongli
• Ayaka
• Gorou
• Hutao
• Kazuha Gulp Design
• Cyno
• Kokomi
• Scaramouche
• Summertime Barbara
•  Venti Gulp (Wasn't listed in KS)
•  Ayaka Gulp (Wasn't listed in KS)

Early Year Conventions almost done! Shipping Pins throughout Feb-April
over 1 year ago – Wed, Jan 18, 2023 at 08:56:46 AM

Apologies for the late update everyone! I sadly got a pretty bad stomach flu from my last convention and  recovering right now.

From my last update and Insta I did express that December & January would have cons back to back and I really want to apologies for the bad timing I applied to these months ago so while the pins are finished with production I still have to finish all these shows to start shipping them out.  The shows starting with Anime Frontier Dec 2-4, Holiday Cosplay Tampa Dec 10-11, Holiday Matsuri Dec 16-18, Anime Los Angeles Jan 6-9, and Otakufest 13-15. I have one more con this month and after I recover from traveling I will be working hard on shipping all the rewards out and updating my online store!

Between shows there was also a separate order of Previous Pins Baal, Ganyu, Hutao, Xiao, Zhongli, and Venti so those just came in a couple of days ago!

I made sure I made more then enough pins for all the rewards so I want to thank you all again for everyone's patience! I really apologies again for how busy it got I really did not want you guys to be waiting at all.  I actually met a few of the backers during all these shows and all of you were super understanding and were excited to see all the designs. I will be posting all my photos of all the pins After Central Florida Comic Con this weekend!

over 1 year ago – Thu, Nov 17, 2022 at 03:07:47 PM

Hello everyone I hope your having a good season! We should be receiving the stickers, thank you cards, backing cards and throughout this year! More pin photos I will share in another post so this one is not too long! I need to finish paying the rest of the pin quotation so the last day to make final updates to your order is November 22. After this date, we will lock your reward selections and charge cards for add-on item purchases, pledge upgrades, and pre-orders. You can still update your shipping addresses up until we lock addresses for when it is time for shipping!

If you need to review your information or pledge status, you can return to your survey by clicking the link in your survey email or requesting your survey link under "Lost your survey?" on our BackerKit  project page at https://intertwinedfates.backerkit.com  BackerKit Survey Link 

Mostly everyone has completed the surveys! But there is a handful that haven't fully finished adding their address or payment for additional add-ons so if your not sure please check it again. If you fill out your BackerKit survey after the November 22 order due date, we’ll still receive your information but your shipment may be delayed. 

*We are able to unlock orders individually if there any sudden changes until it is time to ship but I will be busy for convention season December & January so please message me thru KS I'll be giving more leniency to international backers since shipping can be bundle together. 

THANK YOU!
Thank you all again for being so responsive to answering our  BackerKit survey—even though it may not seem like much as an individual  backer, you have no idea how tremendously helpful this has been for me  when trying to keep track of all 340+ of you guys!

More Manu Photos! The New Pins are now all in the coloring & plating Stages! I don't have a close up pic of Aether but he is done as well! 

Little Thank You cards I've made to celebrate you as a backer for the support! 

Restock Pins: My other manufacturer for the restock pins was busy with some other orders so they are being worked on now with some of my other nongenshin pins the only designs that need restocking are Hutao, Ganyu, and Baal so will be a little delay for those that ordered those restock designs but I do have enough Zhongli, Xiao, and Venti! I actually had to reorder more of the boys with this reorder too because so many of you ordered them I won't have a lot left over for cons and the shop xD

Please Note! I will be busy attending Anime Frontier, Holiday Cosplay Tampa, and Holiday Matsuri on December and Anime Los Angeles & Otakufest in January so I will try very my best to keep you guys updated! The pins might slowly start coming in batches and my schedule will be very busy during those 2 months and afterwords once everything does arrive it also will take time for to grade & pack 400 + orders so just letting you guys know how busy everything will be! I truly appreciate everyone's support & patience! 

BIG PROGRESS UPDATE! Pin Molds Complete! Coloring Process Starting! Manu Photos + Stickers & Wips!
over 1 year ago – Tue, Oct 18, 2022 at 11:36:11 PM

Big Progress Update! Hello everyone happy to announce that production is going great so far! My manufacturer has just let me know that they are now starting the coloring process so molds of the new designs are complete! 

They have just given some photos of them in their zinc alloy base which for people that are new to the enamel pin making is the metal base made from the molds that is then filled in with enamel and then plated to gold!  Here are the photos as they were given! They have shared 10 of the designs  Aether, Lumine, Scaramouche, Childe, Columbina, Itto, Kokomi, Chongyun, Cyno, and Al Haithem! Going to check with them to see if they can send that other half but they are most likely being filled in at the moment. 

Super impressed as always with how much detail they were able to do for the molds especially with my artstyle super excited to see the first batch of them all colored! Letting everyone know this is very large order thousands of pins are in production so the coloring process will take time!  Thank you for everyone being patient! 

Also Stickers are Almost done coloring as well! I just have to finish up coloring the last 6 Columbina, Chongyun, Xingqiu, and Sumeru but all the others are finished! I wanted to get these done first before prioritizing on the prints. I hope you guys like them! 

Scaramouche Print is Complete! Kokomi & Itto are in progress! 

 Scara Insta Post 

I was a bit slow coloring him since its been a few months I haven't colored on my new larger drawing monitor but going to try my best to get the rest done much more quickly! 

Sneakpeeks of Cyno & Eula

ARTIST NOTES TLDR: For Cyno if your particular in his details I know that his chest piece that covers his pec is on the other side I initially drew this mirrored but noticed that his larger hair bang was on wrong side but I still really like the overall look so decided to flip it to make the hair canonically correct but decided to change that chest piece to be a little more minimal  BASICALLY MORE CYNO CHEST I hope that's okay lol ! Eula still sketch still not complete! Still need to work on the composition and cleaning up her outfit she got a lot of details and bg but wanted to share what I have so far of them both!

Thank you guys again for the support!  I hope I covered everything definitely let me know if you any questions  and I hope you guys enjoy the extra art that's going with the pins!
