Kickstarter: Oh man! We hit $17,000 and our 5th stretch goal this morning! I had said that if we get to 17K I’d make the Medusa and Urano bonus story a 5 parter. So that means the book will have 17 extra pages of comics by me, and 6 extra pages of comics featuring the Pirates by Patrick Devine! Plus the extra 10 page story I was doing anyway! That’s 33 pages! That’s 1/3 of a full season!
Here’s the crazy thing, we’ve still got over 30 hours to go and we’re only about $800 away from the next stretch goal. This is another big one, because it’s not JUST another 3 page story (this one featuring Vargas and Kerrigor, the Prince’s Knights. Kerrigor’s the guy in his underwear, by the way), but also a Medusa paper craft toy. Tyler Tinsley of Papercrafted.com just sent me this photo of the finished prototype, and it’s damn cool!(Edit: Tyler just told me this ISN’T the finished version, and that the finished one will be even cooler!) Everyone who contributed at least $5 will get one of these IF we reach$18,000!
More art! David Kufner colored up my Urano concept art! Pretty slick! Thansk man!
Jake that is not the finished toy, the finished one will have even better artwork. with inked lines and more shadows and highlights.
Oh crap! it’ll be awesome!
Modest named one of her sisters Twilight… I’m going to at least pretend that it is a reference to ponies and not fail-vampires (or anything else for that matter).
Twilight Princess?
No, he means Twighlight Sparkle from My Little Pony Friendship is Magic.
Pretty sure the Twilight was in reference to Twilight Princess: Legend of Zelda.
We passed 17000! horey Shirt! Jake have you decided if The Giant Chocodile is an actual adventure {since the only one who denied it happening were the two people who weren’t there}
I’m not going to say. You’ll have to wait and see!
I feel sorry for Reshiram.
Here are some other names:
Pudding
Fantasy
Shiny
Rare
Ekans (they are snakes)
Asudem (medusa backwards!)
That’s a finger puppet toy, right? Looks pretty sweet, even as an unfinished prototype… 🙂
I think it’s a little bigger than a finger puppet, but yeah.
Mopey Medusa
Magic Medusa
Manic Medusa
Messy Medusa
Menace Medusa
Music Medusa
Mellow Medusa
Merry Medusa
Mystic Medusa
Morbid Medusa
Mellow Medusa
Soft Medusa,
Warm Medusa,
Little ball of Snakes.
Sleepy Medusa,
Happy Medusa,
Om nom nom.
That last line is a sleepy medusa nomming on a chocodile).
So the Kickstarter ends tommorow at midnight …. interesting
Is it?
I am going to assume Reshiram is foreshadowing and that that Medusa can breath fire
Reshiram breathes fire? I gotta get one of those!
Well, it is a fire type….
Hey Jake I can put money on the card today so there wont be any problems with the kickstarter
Awesome. Thanks!
NEAT
Wow, it’s at 18.2k and there’s still 10 hours remaining. The craziest thing of all would be if we got to learn more about Will Beneditti’s Kangaroo.
I know, right?
Maybe you should make another update letting people know who are still on the fence that there’s a chance to take the book even farther, to a land down under.
I’ve been posting on Facebook, Google+, Twitter and Deviant Art, plus sending updates through Kickstarter to backers.
No, we were told not to ask about the Kangaroo, and thus we do not need to know.
Those names are okay,but wgat was in that room was disturbing!!!!!! 🙂
Opps! I spell really bad!! 🙁
But read the email I sent you and reply soon!!! 🙂
Thanks.
So have you read it or not?!?!?!?!??
I just did. Looks good!
Yay! 🙂
we hit 18,000 we’re only 3 thousand away from the secret of Yeld’s Glasses… Well we wont hit that but it’s probably a good thing some secrets should stay secrets but who knows maybe we’ll get 19000
400 dollars in 45 minutes?
Could happen!
So Jake Think Modest will be happy with her share?
Down in the dungeons in boxers and a mask – if we’d only reached the next level in the kickstarter pledging we’d have gotten the story behind that.
go back and look at the rewards levels
….But, I have a character named Hearts…I’ve had her since I was twelve.(I’m 17 now.)
The little medusas are the cutest things ever, they’re so innocent, and this must be 100 times as much experience of life as they’ve had in the rest of theirs. I mean, NAMES! How exciting is it to get one’s own name?!
Twilight?
Can I adopt the one named Nintendo? lol
Awww ♡
Now I’m super attached to all of them ♡♡♡♡
