Issue 1 ReUp Mock Up.
Alrighty folks, again just a mock of up of how a 2nd Print of the original stuff would look. Still tweaking that Trade Dress though. I might do a test printing of these. I dunno....but there will be a slight interior design overhaul. Also hey new (ish) logo.
Leave your thoughts and prayers below or in discord. Ciao
Mock ups
So, working on my Photoshop skill set and I'm really not happy with how this looks overall...
But its pretty much what I'm going to be working on all weekend. Once the Trade Dress is gtg we'll start working on that second run which we'll just call "First RE-Enlistment."
More than likely I'll take out the text (not because its hard to read but because I'm just not feeling it.)
More to follow later.
My Daddy Hits Me Harder!
1) 4 Profit Variant will be ready soon. We'll post the link here and in discord. Gonna keep it live for a week before we kill it.
2) I stayed home today and have been fucking around on PS all day and used up my shitty PS skills to make these concept trade dresses, since I never had the opportunity to create one with how fast everything has gone on. So I've manged to update a bunch of shit. So the second print run will look a little better. Just gonna attached it here.

New and improved Credits and Backpage.
If you didn't know, I'm currently not happy with the current look of the intro pages...they always felt as though they were missing something. But after making some minor changes, studying Luigi's Photoshop layers, teaching myself layers and masks.....and then Ninja Rob completely blowing everything I've done out of the water...we finally got these two images done. Some say they should be covers, but nah....I like them as Credits page and Back cover. ...

Release Schedule 2019
First, hats off to Robert Tamburo for the template. Thank you so much for this, there was a bit of a learning curve but I figured out how to make it work for me! I'll improve upon this as time goes on.
I've been working on my PS / Design skills so the book won't look as "indy" as it does. So hopefully by the final issue this bad girl will actually look Professional instead of rushed.
Btw if you haven't heard we landed an exclusive deal with a French Translation of RAGS. Expect ...

Hey guys, I feel ya'll on the shipping. This box should've been here a few weeks ago.

What Am I Getting?
*update* These will be throughout the next few months and should easily lead into issue 5 once its done and ready.
So what you guys should expect in the following months:
Battle Buddies: Normie Cover, Liz Finnegan Variant (not pictured), Easter Variant
Muffin Bears: Normie, Liz Finnegan Variant, Easter, Mortal Kombat
Operators: All the above.
So first question: Why the change?

Well, FINALLY got the proofs of the other variant covers yesterday. Which, btw you guys may or may not believe this, but I feel your pain on shipping / receiving too. The variants were all put together the same day as the normie proof. They officially "shipped" Apr 25th...and yet they just arrived yesterday.
The infuriating part...is the Tradedress robutts arrived before the virgin that's intended for the scavenger hunt winners. >_> still waiting on some other shit to arrive...so I'...
F.E.T Team! Tier Reward updates!
First of all, from Left to right:
Lcpl Rachel Simpson, Cpl Carol Stewart and Cpl Ragowski. Last photo taken of Regina and Rachel together.
Second, I've updated tier rewards to more accurately reflect what we're doing...yadda yadda. I'll be making an update to the overview as well to remove any more strange wording.
Benefit tracker: Fucking WORKS NOW! Thank fuck. Alibi's shipments should no longer be a thing moving forward. This shouldn't affect any active members ...
Redemption Arc
So I need help.
One thing I did not get to do was get virgin variants of issue 1 to trent, Luigi and liz because we had to give up ours to ensure that those orders could be fulfilled by AP.
So.
If you have 1 and would be willing to trade it to me. I'd be forever grateful.
