Update on my Kroot Golden Demon Project

Dear Supporters,As mentioned before, I’ve made some changes to the Tier Levels to make them less confusing and clearer. These changes are now live, and they should not affect you if you’ve been a member (except for the Early Bird tier, which has ended after ~1 year 🙂).New: on the 1st day of the month the Feedback Level can now insert their WIPS and i will do a feedback session, like a live online workshop :)I also wanted to share a WIP of the Kroot diorama as an update for you to follow along! :)Another great opportunity to say thank you...
