Creature caster Kickstarter campaign succeeds

Creature caster came to a close on Sunday Night. Jeremy posted a video thanking all the backers for what was a very successful campaign

The campaign close at 1081% of his goal, with 1487 people backing him.

I personally have pledged 2x silver and 1x gold. I intend to get the Vulture Daemon (Lord of Change), Pincer Daemon (Keeper of Secrets), and Possessed Dragon

The campaign was unusual as far as Kickstarters normally go as there was no mid campaign "lull"

New backers where attracted each day

Daily pledge amounts where consistent throughout

Community feedback and engagement was high for the campaign. Games Workshop take note, engaging directly with your market is a positive business driver!

Jeremy's success laid bare

Jeremy has promised delivery by the end of the year. I know many kKckstarters miss their goals and hope the success for Creature Caster dosn't add delays to delivery. 

I think all supporters are interested to see second wave and the Canadian Chimera...

Interesting how Warhammer Forge is on the backburner due to low sales (for similarly priced models) yet projects like this are successful. I guess the void left has created an opening in the market for Creature Caster. Now that they have the foot in the door there will be a lot of loyal customers anticipating future releases.

New models unlocked on Creature Caster Kickstarter

The Kickstarter campaign is marching along steadily now with two new models unlocked alongside a plethora of free upgrades to the existing range. In what was rather astute timing a new model of a Tree Woman has been released. 

This is very divergent to the new Games Workshop one and is sure to appease those who do not like the new aesthetic (I happen to love the new look of the new GW Treeman). I'm not sold on the CC Treewoman, and to me it looks like just another excuse for tits on a model... 

Now along comes the next model, this time the Zombie Dragon. A nice enough render but I will wait till I see the model finished before passing judgement. There is a very saturated Undead Dragon market out there however the render does look nicer than the plastic GW version.

New updated kickstarter pricelist

And by the looks of it there is one more model to be unlocked. This should be the last in the initial range as Jeremy has stated he does not want to get to "greedy" the first time around. The remaining goals are likely to be bundle deals and upgrade variations to the new and existing models
