We're excited to announce a new Kickstarter-Exclusive Bonus Item for Hairology: the Hair Monster Acrylic Pin

EXCLUSIVE ITEM: "Hair Monster" Acrylic Pin!

We'll be including this 1.5" Acrylic Pin FOR FREE with your rewards if you're at a Physical Pledge Level (meaning you're having some rewards shipped to you) and if your pledge amount is $35 or more before shipping (so if the sum of your Rewards + Add-ons equals USD $35 or more).

Art by Yonson Carbonell; Created by Kiara Halls

The Acrylic Pin features the Hair Monster from one of the stories featured in Hairology: "Hair Wars". The adorable creature was created by Kiara Halls and is based on concept art by Yonson Carbonell.

This item will be exclusive to this Kickstarter, so don't miss out!

FREE if your pledge amount is $35 or more (before shipping)!

If you're already at a Physical Pledge Level and your pre-shipping pledge amount already totals $35 or more, you don't need to do anything else to get the Acrylic Pin. It will automatically be included with your rewards :)

If you're not at a Physical Pledge Level/if your pledge amount is less than $35 and you want to receive the pin, we hope you'll consider checking out our higher pledge levels and our Add-on offerings!

Glarien: Short and Deadly

The king of Kickstarter is back with one of his biggest campaigns yet!

"Glarien: Short and Deadly inculdes eight, self-contained stories, that as a whole, follow the journey of a young elf warrior as she evolves over three thousand years. We see the brashness of her youthful escapades washed away as the pain of lovers lost starts to take its toll. This journey ultimately culminates in Glarien reaching a more emotionallly mature stage of life where she begins to think about the future and the legacy she wants to leave behind.  Oh, and expect carnage... lots and LOTS of carnage."

Sunmaker #1-3: Frozen Apocalyptic Fantasy Final Chapter

I love the RPG video game aesthetic for Ryan's passion project.

"A great cataclysm has left the world concealed in snow and ice. To protect what was left of their culture, the Sunmakers sealed themselves away from the doomed world. Now their numbers have dwindled, and Tibhan, the last of the Sunmakers, must risk everything by returning to the desolate wastes to fuel the fire that preserves his people's essence.

Even if the cost is great and unthinkable."
