Hey everyone,
first, thanks so much to everyone who backed the Lines book crowdfunding already! It’s off to a great start, more about that below! I’m already announcing the next project today - yes, it’s a bit packed these days.
Sometimes you work for weeks and months on things, silently (not making money and fame 😄), and then it’s all released within a couple days! This illustrates the freelance life quite well.
Life Contained
One of these projects is Life Contained, and I’ve got the pleasure to announce this as my upcoming drop on Nifty Gateway!
I’ve been starting to draw these bottle dioramas just for fun. I wanted to do something just for me a while ago, something inspiring and nice to work on. Something unrelated to a project, client, deadline. When I started posting these on social media, I got massive positive feedback, so I thought I should probably turn these into a project after all - and here we are again 😉.
Life Contained will drop on Nifty on Wednesday, September 27, 10.30 UTC! There’s some special treats involved, so here’s a little outlook and overview graphic for you:
Orbit, Open Edition, 24 hours, 50 USD - We are going to draw 5 editions of Orbit between all holders of Trip Machine, and another 5 editions between all holders of Krypto Kiosk
Retreat, 15/15, Ranked Auction, 24 hours - Collectors will be eligible to claim a free physical print series
Container 3, 1/1, Auction, 48 hours
Container 4, 1/1, Drawing between holders of both Orbit & Retreat, open for 24 hours after the OE/LE sale ends
Now the special extra part: the two containers are empty. If you become a holder of one of these, you can commission me to draw a scene inside and come up with a name, so we make it your personal Life Contained bottle! The metadata will be updated once the artwork is final.
Lines Update
As mentioned above, I didn’t expect such a run on my book campaign. Funded after 5 Minutes, I mean WTF?! 😅🙏 I also got the Kickstarter Project We Love badge now, which is great as it’s only my very first campaign!
If a project collects more funds than the initial goal, it’s common on Kickstarter to offer stretch goals. This means, everyone will receive more value for their pledge, once a certain sum is collected. We already made it to three stretch goals, so you will receive all these on top when you get your copy of the book:
That’s it for today, I hope you all have a great Friday and smooth start into the weekend!
Cheers
Stefan
