Amalthea kit interest poll
🕑 Added 2022-06-10 15:28:18 +0000 UTC
Oh my uhm we have a lot of new members in the past couple of days π³ and I see several familiar faces... erm.. names in the list π
I want to welcome you all, even those that might hate or hated my guts in the past lol (long story, will share later π)
Ok, uhm well, basically I think I may have gotten way over my head thinking that this project may not attract that much interest, I feel that might be very wrong at this stage π³
While I'm really happy and flattered at all the attention this project is getting, I am considering changing the amount of copies I'm willing to offer so I may at least provide my patrons with ample chance to get an unpainted copy.
As per the pre-painted versions I'm offering, I think I may add 1 more copy for a total of 6, I think the best and fair thing I could do here is equality divide 3 copies for my patrons and the other 3 for the general public, and in regards to that, I don't know if you've been reading my updates on social media, but due to the very limited amount of copies I can offer, the bases to be able to purchase will be on sort of "lotto". Interested parties would register within a set time frame and 3 winners will be chosen via random number generator, selected parties will have the opportunity to purchase the pre-painted version.
If you don't win one of the 3, you can request your name to be added to the second drawing with the people of general public, so you could have a second chance to try an be selected.
The other option I could offer but don't know if people would really be interested in it, would be to indeed offer a larger amount of pre-painted kits only for patrons, but with a much longer waiting and delivery time, because again, I'm just one person and could paint so many without getting burned out myself as it has happened in the past.
If my calculations are correct, the original 6 copies of the pre-painted versions could would be ready by Q2 of 2023 considering the production time at the workshop, transit and me working on each kit once here.
If I were to offer more painted copies on top of the original 5-6 (but don't know exactly how many), I could imagine a delivery for Q4 of 2023 and pushing it to Q2 of 2024 and like I said, I don't know if people really want to wait that long, or maybe I'm underestimating you guys and that's why I'm interested in seeing what you really want π€ͺ
So please help me by letting me know from the options which version you are interested in to get a rough idea of how many kits I may need to request from the workshop.
Only participate if you are 100% interested in a copy, if you're not part of the people that will want one, please reserve your vote and don't worry about fomo for a little poll that doesn't really affect you π
I hope that's not too confusing, if you have any questions, please let me know before you cast your vote π

I would paint one myself but Iβve never done one before and itβd probably sit on my shelf collecting dust until I gain enough confidence to do it
To be honest if I can't get a pre-painted version I want a kit and paint it myself. I am ok with the idea of a lottery. I am not into the longer wait and here's why... redoing the same thing over and over again for an artist is harder than people think. 6 pre-painted is a LOT for Leona to do... to add more well it will feel like work for her and not as enjoyable I think. Leona likes to make new stuff and redoing the same thing over and over again I think will make her unhappy. I'd rather see her happy with her art and forego getting one of her piece so she doesn't burn herself up on just one project.
