Latest Updates from Our Project:

A NEW $10,000 GOAL - VOTE FOR THE UNLOCK!
about 1 year ago – Tue, Mar 04, 2025 at 12:02:26 PM

Good afternoon everyone, we're nearly done with this Campaign! Thank you so much for the support. 

Steve had a cool idea - let's actually put the $10,000 stretch goal to a vote. Would you prefer Elvish Promenade or Marionette Apprentice? That way, we can make the most people happy with the stretch goal we'll reach. You get to decide! We've attached the poll to this update, so if you're already a backer you can vote right now! Not a backer but want to vote? I have a good solution for you. :) 


WE'RE ALMOST FINISHED! GET YOUR TOKENS & PLAYMATS WHILE YOU CAN!

Good morning everyone!

We are SO CLOSE to the conclusion of the campaign - and we are also extremely close to that $10,000 stretch goal for Elvish Promenade!

Tell your friends because dang, this thing is going to be beautiful. 

Don't forget also about the awesome token pack - featuring all new art from Steve. That's the part I'm most excited for!

Thanks so much for the support so far! We appreciate it very much.

Good morning everyone, happy Tuesday!

We're a week into the campaign & feeling good! Thank you very much for the support so far. We're very excited to have formally funded - it's just onwards & upwards from here!

We're inching closer and closer to our $10k stretch goal - Elvish Promenade! If you've been holding out & waiting for it, the best way to make sure we get there is to go ahead & back now - you can always back out of your pledge later if you're not happy with the available playmats!

Check out the story section for more information including shipping, minimum order size, and more! Don't hesitate to ask any questions you may have about this!

Steve at MagicCon Chicago

Steve is ready to see YOU at MagicCon Chicago! He'll have a few playmats on hand along with some proof copies of the token sets for you to check out! PLUS - he's told me he has a bit of a special deal for those who prove they're backing the campaign :) Stay tuned!

Thanks y'all -

CLUE TOKEN ART!

Steve has shared the ink drawing for the CLUE TOKEN that will be included in the token pack!! I, for one, think it is so, so sick & can't wait to have my hands on it. This token and more can be yours with one simple token pack purchase! Stay tuned for more token arts (and finalized versions of arts) as we move through the campaign! :) 

PAINTED, SKETCHED, & INKED ARTIST PROOFS AVAILABLE!

If you've ever wanted to have your very own, customized Jegantha or Lurrus artist proof, we've added a limited number of painted, pencil sketch, & inked artist proof add-ons for both! Steve will work with you to make your dream a reality. So - if you're an existing backer or someone considering - get you one of these!
Please note: the prices here on Backerkit are for a relatively simple commission - if you want a more complex one, we'll work with you to make it happen for a higher price!

That's all for now - thanks so much for the support so far!
