BackerKit Issues

Hey all!

I've gotten a few messages from a small number of backers stating they've never received a survey - sometimes this is due to emails hitting your spam folder, or a slightly misspelled email address. If you still haven't received your survey, head over to this link and input your email address manually:

https://arcanis.backerkit.com

Please feel free to message me if you're having any issues! Thank you!

Pin Winner + Production Updates!

We're in production!

Both the deck and the book have been safely at their respective production houses for a few weeks now. I'll keep you in the loop where we are in the production pipeline as I get updates as well. We're on time to ship as projected, so for now... sit tight! The waiting is the hard part!

We Have a Winner!


The Hermit with the hanging lantern was the enamel pin chosen by a wide margin. I've sent off the file to be made into the 1.5" hard enamel pins. Woohoo!

 

As always, thank you!

As it was pointed out by a couple backers, I never fully released the Major Arcana, so for those of you that pick prints as part of your rewards, you only had a few cards to choose from outside of the Minors

So, finally, here's the full 22 Major Arcana for all to see!

Enamel Pin Poll!
almost 7 years ago – Tue, May 09, 2017 at 10:06:46 PM

Hey everybody!

Enamel Pin designs have been narrowed down to 3 choices based on what would be the safest design to turn into a 1.5" pin without losing quality or clarity. Here are the top three options!


Pin A - The Three of Swords

 Pin B - Strength

 Pin C - The Hermit*

*A note for Pin C - The Hermit's lantern will be attached via a small chain, which I only recently found out was an option! Super cool!

I've created a poll via PollDaddy.com which will be open to voting until May 20th. After that, I'll send the winning design off to TrueMetalWorks for production! Yay! 

Click here to access the Enamel Pin Poll!

Please only vote if you are a backer. I want everyone who helped reach the stretch goal to have the final say in what they want to see!

Thank you, everyone! Can't wait to see what you all choose!
