Dwarf Con

Update #13 · Aug 8, 2012 · 14 comments

Days have become hours and the tattoo seems inevitable. I have decided to get it here in Austin after GenCon - we are a great city for tattoo artists. I would hate to rush something like this. My brother and son may be getting inked alongside me. Guess this will be a project to remember, eh?

Looks like we have a shot at DwarfCon. I have spoken to Jeff Laubenstein and he has agreed to be the Artist Guest of Honor if it happens. Volunteers have also stepped forward which makes me think this is not only possible but has the potential to be awesome. 30k is in reach but I have to ask again for everyone to spread the word any way you can think of. The farther this project goes, the better it will be for everyone, right down to the $10 backers.

I have added an art print and a Tshirt to the add on list in response to requests for both. Check 'em out! Order a few for yourself and all your dwarf loving friends!

Question - do you want a hard copy edition of the anthology? They would be expensive - in the $12 to $18 range. 

This has been a great ride so far - can't wait to see where it leads!
