LE Maedhros prints dropping in my Etsy shop tonight! =D

... please tell me I'm not the only one who always thinks "Lawful Evil?!" when reading about Limited Editions. XD

The edition is limited to twenty copies, plus one artist proof! They'll drop tonight, at 18.30 CET (6.30 pm)!

This happened pretty fast now. The print shop I work with only has two modes: "waiting for paper", and "you can come in today!" 

I'm also working on the enamel pins of Agnes, Peef and the Guardian to accompany the book. I'm still fiddling with the font for the title and there need to be made two more illustrations (one for the beginning and one for the end). Here's a preview of the cover! (Font not final. Probably not readable enough.) 

I'm also considering doing a handful more pins, too. Any suggestions? I won't do the other Valar - possible Orome, but not Mandos; the non-attractive guys just don't sell. XD Also not sure about doing any more of the D&Dormice; the ranger is selling well, but for the most part, Tolkien does a lot better. Happy to hear your ideas! For a guideline, my best-sellers are the Silmarils, the handsome guys XD, the funny ones (Feanor no/Going on an adventure).

I can also imagine doing new designs for Feanor, Fingolfin and Finarfin. The first run is nearly sold out now, but they were among the first pins I designed and today, I'd make them slightly bigger and handle the facial details differently (more like the Valar). 

I am also resolved to give Patreon Merch another try. As a rough idea, I'm planning to do four different motifs a year (three months membership gets you one sticker/mini print/t-shirt/mug/whatever tier you're pledging for), with motifs you won't get anywhere else. The details are pretty complicated, but I think I've understood enough now to get started. ;) Soonish.
