Turok 08 / Re: TUROK developer is starting a new dino thing!
« on: June 30, 2017, 02:35:01 AM »
Hello!

I sent out a couple of backer updates this week but thought I'd rattle the cage here as well in case people don't read their email  :D

If you're a backer, I need you to contact me on KS via the project page with your address because WE'RE GOING TO PRINT!

My printer will be shipping the book directly to people so if I don't get a backer's address by the end of this weekend (07/02/2017) they won't receive the book in early August and will have to wait for the 2nd printing. Patience has finally paid off and I want to get this book into everyone's hands already!

So if you know someone who backed the project, please nudge them about checking their email (and spam filters) so they don't miss out on the 1st printing.

Thanks for all the support!

-T

Hey hey HEY!

The book is DONE. I'm going to prepress this week to get a printed copy in my hands for the final quality check before shipping to backers! Some folks in the Vancouver area asked for a personal pickup/drop-off and I'm going to be honouring those requests as well.

I hope those of you who chose to back this are happy with the results.

Sorry for the delay. I want it to be perfect!

Hey everyone,

Dinomite was nice enough to send a note asking how things were coming and if I'd taken off to Belize with the Kickstarter cash.

Nope, we're still in full production. These things take time, but I can still provide some non-backer updates to you guys. Here where things stand.

Jan 13, 2016
- Pictures of the original dinosaur reward piece from Jeremiah Birnbaum, with links.
- Reminder to everyone who pledged at the "Eaten by a Dino" tier to get their names and likenesses inf or inclusion.

Oct 19, 2015
- Update at the 33% completion mark, and a clip of the colour process with two sets of pages.
- 2 new logo designs for the t-shirts up from Joe G.'s portfolio
- New podcast release on "Fresh Out Of Tokens" podcast

Aug 16, 2015
- lines and inks from page 5
- heads up on the new t-shirt designs

So as you can see, we've been busy. I have a new update scheduled for the week of April 12th with a significant amount of new info, some sneak views of panels, and more. Appreciate the support, and keep holding our feet to the fire!  ;D

Guys, we made it!  ;D ;D ;D

So many thanks are due to the TurokForums community. You guys gave me a platform from the very start, and despite some slowdowns during the campaign, kept up the signal boosts and RTs. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

And the cool thing is - we're not done! There are still two whole days left to push through more achievements and unlock more stuff. Like the live Twitch playthrough of Turok, or some great music written especially for Savage Empire.

Let's keep it going and thank you for your amazing support! Turokforums.com are the best!

Oh by the way, the artist for these is my friend Daryl Mandryk. He's one of the top concept artists in the world, we worked together on Turok at Disney. He's done covers for Dark Horse, Star Wars, Conan and a bunch of other comic projects, plus more game projects than you've had hot dinners, including the first 2 Def Jam Vendettas, Shadow of Mordor, etc etc etc. Basically he's an art god and the most chill guy ever.

He's providing a variant cover for my Kickstarter, so I wanted to include some of his prior work so you guys know what you'll be getting. As of today, that variant cover reward has been extended to ALL physical copies of the book, not just the $250 tier. So you can pledge at the $50 CDN tier (BET JURASSIC) and get the variant cover.

It's a Kickstarter-exclusive, btw. Once the campaign is over, any copies of the novel sold will have the regular cover, not the variant. So get on it!

Hey! None of that downer talk! WE JUST BROKE 10K IN FUNDING!  :D ;D ;D

Now, it's not done yet. Like Dinomite said, we have to hit the pledge mark of 14K in the next 8 days to make Savage Empire happen, but it will happen if you and I keep working at it. This is a huge milestone and we should celebrate with everyone who loves dino culture. So here's some new art to get you revved up and sharing with friends to get them to support Savage Empire!






So get out there! Get more backers to guarantee this project sees the light of day!

Thanks guys - remember that this is E3 week and the third week of any crowdfunding effort is usually the slow one. I'm not giving up and neither should you. This isn't just my story now, it's yours - so if you want to make it happen, let's make it happen.

RT the hell out of the updates on Twitter. If you're not following http://www.twitter.com/VancouverTim on Twitter, you should.

Tell your friends! It's going to take work!

Hey guys, tomorrow is the Jurassic World release and SAVAGE EMPIRE has an art release tie-in.

Starting June 12 at midnight PST, for every 5 new backers on the Kickstarter, we'll be releasing a sweet piece of artwork online.

http://savageempire.org

OR

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1096532653/savage-empire?ref=nav_search

We've got several different artists with multiple takes on the characters and creatures of this new world - some realistic, some more abstract. I might even see what Turok 2 stuff I can dig up as well!  ;D ;D

Remember, get your friends lined up and ready to go for MIDNIGHT. Back the project and get cool new art. Everybody wins!
