There’s less than a week left until our PledgeMe crowd-funding campaign ends: https://www.pledgeme.co.nz/Crowd/Details/952 We’re 4/5 of the way there but we still need your support! Remember, if we don’t reach target, we won’t actually receive ANY of the pledges so far. So please support us or share with your friends and family! Above is a preview of our Chromacon badges, it’s not much but we would like to thank everyone for your support from the bottom of our hearts. I’ve also gotten quite a few comments from fans of Chromacon that they’re quite interested in either the Chromacon 2013 Art book or T-shirt, but are a bit strapped for cash for the “CHROMA Vol.1” or “Tees!” reward tiers. Well no more worries! I’ve created two new reward tiers just for you!...
