Circus Sweeties

Sorry!

One more update for today.

I am stuck naming Nessie. I am so used to just calling her Nessie now, haha. Evan and I brain stormed a bit, so there is a poll.

Ultimately, your nessie is yours to name, but... yeah.

I also have started working on her reference. It is not even close to done yet, but you can have a sneak peak since we are talking about her. shshfhgh

Hello everyone!

I just thought it would be a good idea to get all the coloring page stuff in one place to make it easier for everyone who wants to participate!

There really are no rules. You can color the page digitally or traditionally. You can color it ANY way you want. You can even draw over it and make it something new! We had a fun entry where they turned Bella and Catsie into Lupin and Batty. Very cute!

You can design your own Circus Sweeties if you want, or focus on a color theme, or maybe you just want to color it in really nice! The choice is all yours!




End date will be Tuesday, October 15th 11PST PM!

Good luck to everyone who decides to participate! And thank you again! This couldn't happen without all of you!

Hello again!

It's day 3 and we have unlocked our 40k stretch goal!! That is so exciting! We are just unlocking one friend after another. I am pleased to say Nessie won our last poll. I will be working on updating their reference for prototyping today, and I will share that with you all soon! For now, here is a cute drawing which I think will be a sticker.



I was also working on a introduction sheet for our spooky characters so far! I will have a mythical one soon, worry not! Maybe next update. :3




That isn't all, of course! I am cleaning up the art for our Lupin and Batty pins. I'll probably have that done by our next update! I've also finished up something that I think might make a cute postcard, but I am not 100% sure what I am doing with it yet. It was mainly to advertise so we can hopefully unlock even more of our beloved cookie pals!



I just love drawing Catsie and Bella. They're such cute circus moms who have cultivated such a cute family, if I do say so myself!

I hope everyone is having a wonderful week! Friday is almost here! We got this!! 

Thank you again for all of the amazing support!

Hello again!

I am still trying to wind down from the excitement yesterday! Evan had to hold me back from posting a hundred more updates. I was feral.

It is a new day though, and I get to talk to you guys again! Yay, yay, yay! Like a broken record I would like to say thank you again!! I can't say it enough. I don't know how candid to be here, but I just want you all to know you aren't just making some plushies a reality, you are like... breathing life into a very tired artist and mom. Thank you. So so so much.

Okay, enough of that. Onto FUN stuff! I'm calling the Batty poll, because... she seems to be clear winner, and I am very happy about that! I mean, Lupin needs his winged princess of the night to keep him safe from... you know. Ghosties. And the dark. Hims scared. Don't tell him I said that, though... please.

So, we have a new poll. I'm excited to see who wins this time. I added the zebra and monkey, because... they are very circus themed animals to me, and I want them. Some day. When I say I love all the characters equally, I mean it. I will cover my bed in them all and sleep on the floor.

I also wanted to share a very big idea with you guys. I don't know if it should be it's own separate post, but I am going to share it here, anyway!


I really wanted a way to make your friend not only mobile, but useful to! I had considered plushie backpacks at some point, but I just think it would be really fun to be able to put a little outfit on your doll and them with you instead of having to purchase a whole new doll!

I would design different outfits to fit the different themes: Halloween, Mythical, etc. The pocket on it would ideally be deep enough to house a phone + wallet + pens/lip gloss/etc. If not, maybe we could have an attachable "wallet" that hooks onto the strap. I don't know!!

What do you guys think? I don't know if we would get funded enough to unlock this option on this campaign, but... still. It's an idea we can strive towards!

Evan has also been pretty busy on the Circus Sweeties front, and wanted to make one too! This is far from done, but it's a little gryphon! Just what the mythical babies needed, huh? I have a feeling we are really going to need a series 2 at this point. 



Don't forget about the coloring contest either!! We already have received several entries and they're all so cute and amazing. I really don't know how I am going to choose. That is the only difficult thing about contests!! I don't like having to choose. I just want to pick everyone! Aaaa!!!!

I think that is everything for this update... I am pretty sure. Not that there isn't a lot more to do and say. I have to pace myself, though hehe. 

Thank you so much for being here and reading this! I am trying to respond to as many people as possible. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to reach out!

I'll be back soon!!!

Well, hello...

We meet again so soon. :3c

I'm back, because let's face it... Lupin is in the lead on that last poll by... a lot. So, let's just say he wins and start a new poll! I add more characters, which... might be a mistake. I'm not sure. It is a lot of characters. If it is too many, we'll do something different next time. I'm new to all of this, and will probably make a few silly decisions along the way, but I have no doubts that everyone will be patient and understanding!

I also want to add that I am so happy that every character seems to have their fans, and if we aren't able to unlock them this campaign, I definitely plan to do another so that we can! So, please don't be too disappointed. I love them all equally, and if I can find a way to make every single on exist, I will!

Furthermore, we have reached over 200 backers and are well on our way to 350! I am honored! Thank you and welcome, oh my gosh, I am seriously so happy to have everyone here! 

So... with all that said... onto the poll!
