Update #5: New Goals Means, New Rewards!
Twenty days down and less than twenty to go. Effigy hit its goal in under three days and the project continues to receive more backers every few days. But I think we can step it up and blow the original goal out of the water. That's why I'm announcing three new stretch goals to add incentive for those still on the fence and reward all you awesome people who have already backed the project.
So what rewards have I cooked up for you guys? Not one but TWO new minis, one for each of the Sci-Fi and Fantasy lines. As stated above, there are three new goals. Which goal is achieved will determine who will receive these new miniatures on top of the rewards they're already entitled too.
The New Goals:
-Alpha- If we hit 200%, all backers from the System Agent level and greater will receive two new pewter miniatures, one from each genre. The two miniatures are a drone for the Sci-Fi line and the young squire, Little Knife, for the Fantasy line.
-Beta- If we hit 250%, the Alpha reward is expanded to include all Agent level backers as well.
-Omega- Finally, if we can reach 300% or more, Enforcers also receive one of the new miniatures that coincide with the set they choose.
There is now a gauge in the main description of the project which I will try to update every day or so to show the current progress.
As a preview, I've attached concept art for the Drone and Little Knife. Progress picks will be posted in future updates so you guys can see how they are coming along. If all goes according to play both miniatures should be ready to mold along with the original five.
Oh and before I forget. It's hard to tell, as the Drone is drawn in a side view, but the miniature will have two arms. Here's my question for all of you. Should the Drone have 2 claw hands OR 1 claw hand and 1 utility/weapon arm? Post a comment to this update to cast your vote.
Now more than ever, make sure to tell your friends and get them on board before they miss out on even more great minis. Once again thanks to everyone for the stellar support. I can't wait to see how far we can take Effigy!

Love the squire design!
I think the drone should have a claw and weapon/utility arm. Ideally it would be nice if you could choose either way, but that is more work on you. Looking forward to seeing this finish!
Hmmm interesting though Neal. Thanks for the suggestion.
