The "Add-Ons, How Do They Work?" Update
over 3 years ago – Fri, Oct 14, 2022 at 12:10:10 PM

 
How do I get add-ons for my tier?

Click the "Back this project" button -- or, if you already backed, click the "Manage your pledge" button that replaced it.

After the "Reward" section, there's an "Add-ons" section, which will have all of them listed:

If you picked a digital-only tier, that list will be limited to digital-only add-ons.
If you picked a tier with a paperback in it -- or if you switch to one of those tiers later in the campaign --  you'll unlock the pins, mini-prints, and other physical add-ons.

What are my options for the "extra mini-print" and "extra ebook" add-ons?

The extra mini-prints ($2 each):
 

• Gone Floating (6x5")
• Goth Pride (6x5")
• Rainbow Beings (5x3")
•  NEW: Two Braceleted Hands (6x5")
•  NEW: Parade Wear (9x6")

I added those last two to the list to celebrate the campaigns for Leif & Thorn Volume 4 (Two Braceleted Hands) and the But I'm A Cat Person Master's Edition (Parade Wear). If you missed those, you can snap them up here!

As usual, there will be an exclusive Leif & Thorn Volume 5 mini-print -- everyone who orders the paperback will get that one automatically. Keep an eye out for more on that in a separate post.

The extra ebooks ($5 each):

Any of the regular Leif & Thorn ebooks, the BICP Master's Edition ebook set, and a couple bonuses for each series.

"Just the New Stuff" is for readers who bought the original 8-volume But  I'm A Cat person set, and want to see the exclusive extras from  the Master's Edition without re-buying the whole main story.

I want the new But I'm A Cat Person: Master's Edition box set, and missed the omnibus campaign. Can I get that as an add-on here?

Yes!

All the original BICP Master's Edition preorders have been shipped -- which means the rest of you can start claiming the copies I have left in stock.

We even have a couple special discounts, for Leif & Thorn backers only:
 

•  Master's Edition ebook set: $15 (normally $20)
•  Master's Edition hardcover box set: $120 (normally $169)

In unpacking the Master's Edition paperbacks, I found some copies with scuffed or scratched covers. The insides are still fine, the comics are just as readable -- so I'm offering those at their own discount, for readers who aren't looking for a collector-grade set, you just want a bargain:

•  Master's Edition scuffed paperbacks: $100 (normally $120)

Funding progress is going great -- Volume 5 is already over 3/4 funded! Getting add-ons for your pledge is a great, easy way to bump that up a little higher. (Heck, just a few BICP box sets would put us over the top.) Give them a look.

First 24 hours are off to a smashing start

One day into the Leif & Thorn Volume 5 campaign, let's see how it's doing...

The progress bar is up! This year's version has a pretty blue palette and a Mysterious White-Haired Girl:

Hitting the ground running at 58%, aww yeah.

The goal this year (the minimum amount we need to fund the project, and get these books printed) is $3,900.

Volume 4 raised $4,598...so, as per tradition, we'll hit the first stretch goal at $4,599.

The video is playable! It, ah, wasn't actually finished at the hour when the campaign launched. But you can watch it now.

It's short. Instead of trying to do a serious, polished, Youtube Voice type of presentation, I decided to have a little fun with it.

Turn on the English-language captions -- you'll probably need them.

The FAQs are live! See if your curiosity is sated by Volume 5's set of Frequently Anticipated Questions.

It's been kind of a chaotic month over here -- that's part of why the campaign launched in October, instead of the usual September. Returning backers: thank you for your patience! New backers: welcome to the Leif & Thorn community. It's a nice place. Stick around.
