Raffle Note + Misc. Updates

I think I'll lead off with this:

THE FIGURES OF CHRYSALIS AND THE CHANGELINGS LOOK FREAKING AMAZING.

I am not even joking when I say this is our best work, hands down.  Zero print lines, vibrant gradiated colors, glossy accents.  The only reason I don't have pics now is because of an...interesting unforseen problem: the wings.

We set out trying to make the best figures of these characters that the fandom has ever seen, which meant we had to go all out.  Our goal was threefold: the wings had to be transparent (so no 3D-printing here), they had to be the proper shade of blue (to top a couple other figures I've seen that had straight-up clear wings), and they had to curve (no flat, cut-out-looking things allowed).  We found a material that would easily allow us to do all three, but ran into trouble when we discovered that it cannot be glued to anything.  We're confident that we can pull it off, it will just take more time.

And unlike past events, I want ALL the prizes for this one to be done before the event's end.  I want you guys to SEE these figures before the end of the raffle, to know what you're getting.

So in the interest of giving ourselves more time to work on solving the wing problem, I am extending the deadline of the raffle to NEXT Saturday, March 15.  I'd also like to add that the changelings are not the only things that we've been working on.  Production on other things has not ceased--I've been balancing the changelings with painting commissions, modeling commissions, and making new rigs for future commissions, not to mention the work on the keychains from our first raffle.  We probably could have finished the changelings by now if we'd solely focused on just them, but that's not going to be the case.
