Homemade Excel spreadsheet emailed to self and moved to a custom folder here!

Am I the only one who gets a kick out of seeing the original goal?

No, and Adam had no idea if the $30k goal was going to be met until about 30 seconds into the KS... I was like the 10th person to pledge and I was about 10 seconds after the KS opened up

I have mine saved in Google Docs...

I have the spreadsheet but haven't bothered to save it with my order on it. Maybe I should consider it.

Adam has said he will potentially allow backers to adjust their pledge given special circumstances. I am incredibly eager to change my pledge due to currently being in a war zone and being unable to log in to the KS for the last few days of the campaign. How high do you (Dakkarians) rate my chances of upping my pledge from $525 to $1025 to include everything?

Quite a big jump, but then you've got a good solid reason.

Contact Adam via the KS and plead your case, as the sooner you ask the longer he's got to think about it

(my guess would be that he probably will IF he can figure out a way to do it easily)

his real issue seems to be having to 'tie' the separate sums of money together, as any added complexity in shipping will be what will kill him (find package for joeblow 42 & add a tiwlight witch x5000+ is going to eat loads of time)

I'd suggest offering to pay for the 'extra' as a separate order if it made it easier for him. This would cost you extra shipping but make it much easier for him to deal with (and so more likely that he would say yes)

good luck

I had a problem as well, I went in for the options only and then never got to get back on to decide upon them due to a hospital visit.

Good luck with the e-mail, you have a very good reason to be allowed a change.

re: the logistics of the orders - would Adam have to allocate KS some of these extra funds? Seems like a good way to get round the KS tithe otherwise, maybe that's why he is against it. I imgain CMON can easily work out percentages via the pledge manager, but as Poots is a one-man band it must be more difficult.

You think?

Finalized at $325, which was a hell of a lot more than I originally planned, but for such beautiful/scary models, it was more than worth it. With the Herald bonuses, it comes to:

Survivor package
Flower Knight
Dragon King
The Lantern Festival
Spidicules
Lion Knight
Manhunter
Green Knight Armor
Slender Man

Which leaves an extra $15, which was originally allocated for the Messenger of Humanity. Now, I'm not so sure. Bouncing between him, gender-bender Link, Survivor Kara, and TwiKnight Allison. Guess I've got plenty of time to decide.

Ignoring all of the 'inspired by' I'd go for Allison as based on the art shown she looks the best....

but as I'd into sedition wars I'd really choose Kara

but as you say plenty of time to decide

While its nice that its been confirmed that Adam will allow those of us that screwed up to amend our pledges, what I wouldn't give for a time-scale (which I realise is probably asking a lot at this stage).

This is the perplexing part. Adam seems to have a good relationship with CMON - at least from the little we know - so one would think they'd be available as a resource for post-kickstarter pledge management / adjustment.

Is CMON asking a cut to use their CKPM? Does Adam want to do everything in-house (make his own pledge manager)? Is there some kind of huge irreconcilable (cost-inefficient) incompatibility between their software and Adam's?

Really keen to get the response survey thing where we pick our options. During the course of the kickstarter I totally lost count of the offerings and my mind changed about what I wanted from day to day, eventually just stopped contributing because I wanted to wait and see.
In the end will have $315 to play with, which has to include postage to Australia, but at this stage have no idea what to select.

CMON has a few Pinups in stock again. Get em before they sell out again.

Too late for me. Mostly out of stock again and I missed the small window of opportunity.

I got lucky and ordered Savior and a female Big Game Hunter pinups. That's four I have now (when the rest arrive).

Anyone know where to find a picture of the Lantern Festival Girl pinup without the "Achieved!!" banner across it?

You could crop the image posted for the Lantern Festival expansion in Update 43.

Other than that, I wouldn't be able to suggest anything. Not in Lokmanlam's DeviantArt or official web pages.

some very nice pics of the rawhide armor kit. He said more will post more from other sets later.

These models are shaping up to be very high quality. After reading this it looks like a plastic rawhide dame is included in every armor kit.

Good spot

the more detail I see on the pinups the harder it will be to choose the few I can have when the pledge manager launches

Yeah... I think that was a mistake from unclear wording: I think he was saying that each style of armor also has a pinup variant.

Also, really happy to see the quality of the sculpts--while that was a big chunk of cash, I'm feeling confident about having thrown that much in to it.

The detail and the way the rawhide dame flows is really impressive. I know I will be getting all the Thomas David pin ups for sure.

Looking at the great sculpts, pinups and non-pinups alike, has me worried about gunking up the eyes. I may need to buy a smaller brush.

Do we know which ones he'll be doing?

Don't we get double of the Rawhide kit too?

Just double checked and, yep, we do. Man, those are really, really nice looking.

Yup! Survivors get double rawhide, phoenix and lion armor kits

Adam typically listed who'd be sculpting (or had already sculpted) each thing

I shall rush off and 'waste' some time compliling a list
