Character Mini #3 - The Shadow Man
September 17th - via: kickstarter.com
Meet one of the first characters I came up with after the main character, and annoyingly the one I’m probably the least happy with on the mini. It’s the hair. They didn’t have a good receding hairline option. In other news I’m starting to... (Read More)

Minor Update to Stretch Goals
September 10th - via: kickstarter.com
