Project Delays and Release Shifts
🕑 Added 2024-03-24 15:23:21 +0000 UTCHey friends,
I would like to make an announcement in regards to some pending projects. As I mentioned in one of my recent posts, things could get worse before they got better.
First of all, Fern is experiencing a delay and will be delivered before the end of next week, hopefully around Friday.
Secondly, we had to make a tough decision and shift the next two BG3 releases one month ahead. As you know, BG3 models are bonus models normally only available on the month of their release. However, Wyll still awaits cutting, and by our best estimations we could probably deliver him by March 30th, only to take him down from Patreon two days later. In all honesty, it would be a terribly short availability window, which means we'd be better off offering him in April as well. And we plan on doing just that, while also taking a bit of extra time to avoid rushing the release. Therefore, Wyll will likely be delivered by April 5th, but he will be made available for all March subscribers as promised before, even if they choose not to continue their subscription next month.
Lastly, offering Wyll in April has an implication on Isobel, as she essentially becomes a 6th model that month. And with the current sculpting deadline of April 15th + another 10 days on cutting and supports, she will eventually run into the same problem as Wyll - her availability window after release will be extremely short. Then, whatever model comes after Isobel will likely run end up in the same situation as well, which means we need a more permanent solution. And the most obvious solution is to move Isobel to beginning of May, where we can release her without rushing and then have her available for the full month.
If the above message confused you, let me recap:
1. Fern will be delivered before March 30th.
2. Wyll will be delivered by April 5th and will be available for both March and April subscribers.
3. Isobel will not be offered via subscription in April and will instead be released on the first week of May.
Apologies for the sad news, we are doing our best to fix the delays and get back on track with our releases!
Cheers!

Question: how do I get Wyll if Iβm not subbed next month?

Really no need to apologize. You have added a lot of extra work with these BG3 figures and even with guest artists it adds to your work load. You found a good solution (in my opinion) and it's better for all of us if work on the releases isn't rushed because of this. Just take the extra time as needed!

Had the same thing on my mind to write here when I read the post on the Discord. They are doing their best and found a good solution everyone should be able to live with. It's fine for me if the models get's postponed so they get a better release...
