Card Back Reveal + Magician Hat Logo
🕑 Added 2021-10-22 10:03:02 +0000 UTCEarlier this week I decided I needed to do everything in my power to get the Kickstarter DONE.
WHAT I DID:
1) I verified my identity with them, submitted my financial information, and met some important deadlines so I'm ready for submission.
2) Developed and designed "The Magician's Hat" logo.
3) Chelsey ordered a demo deck to use on the website, and in the pitch video.
4) Reviewed two videos Donald Tilghman produced (Thank You!). I'll share them soon!
5) Wrote the introduction, and fleshed out some of the Tiers on the Kickstarter. I need to take photos of some of the items you can receive!
6) I ordered holographic stickers with the new Magician's Hat logo. We will be giving some of them away here and on Discord!
7) Received the "Magician's Undies" that I commissioned from Vera Saucy. I'll be wearing in an upcoming video!
8) Designed the entire backside of the Tarot Card (check it out!), incorporating the newly designed logo! It was a LOT of work, and this photo doesn't do it justice. It would make a great print!
9) Streamed some of it on Twitch! Shared bits of it on Snapchat (Photoreceptor).
10) Chelsey launched our first Facebook Group, and it will be a community that features my artwork (and other rad body artists). We haven't announced it yet (nor the Instagram we are building) but you can join early here:

11) Did a Podcast with Topher and Seth to promote the Tarot project.
12) Chelsey pitched the story to the Phoenix New Times. I offered to be a guest on "Let's Have A Fefe".
WHAT'S NEXT:
1) Meeting "C" on Saturday for his body painting experience! He's a little nervous, and this is outside of his comfort zone, but he's been wanting to explore this for awhile.
2) Have everything ready to submit to Kickstarter by 10/25. I can still update it/add more later, but it needs to be in a reviewable state.
3) Painting a new model, Konnor, on Wednesday. 10/27
4) Record a final pitch video w/ script, featuring my Magician's Undies, and armor. Then edit it! 10/28
5) Painting a new model, Jason, on Friday. 10/29
6) Painting at MACY'S for their Halloween Ball. I'm a featured guest, painting for their Cosmetics department. This will be at Arrowhead Mall on 10/30.
7) Launch the Kickstarter on Halloween and hope that everyone orders a deck! 10/31
Love you, my friends. Thanks for sticking with me while I try to bring this to life! I think it looks SO cool, especially the new artwork! What do you think?
