You will get to see peeks and perhaps vote on polls about those.Please come say hi if you're atDerpyconP...
“Murder Of Crows” Pin Poll
We have just under two weeks left for our Gay Crime Goose Gang Kickstarter, and we are working on a set of “accomplices” while we recover from Covid and fix our computer. (Mailing Spring Quarter will start soon as we’re are getting a friend to help when it is safe for him to come over.)These would be a social media stretch goalfor printed metal pins in 8-10 flags, meaning they would unlock by hitting certain thresholds of retweets, likes, s...

Pin Reveal: Disability Pride, Bi Pride, and LGBTQ Pride Border Collie
Happy Disability Pride everybody! We are so excited to make our first Disability Pride Pin! As disabled creatives, we wanted to make one of these for a while, and were just waiting for the flag to become a little more polished. The version we're using is still based on Ann Magill's original flag, but it is also referencing a variant by our friend Nishwani Lachhman, which emphasizes progressive movement forward and upward. (You can get her...

Big Huggable Goose Prototype with Magnetic Knife
Hi everybody! Based on enthusiasm in an earlier poll, we asked our manufacturer to prototype a big huggable 11 inch goose with magnets in its beak and a little knife. The little knife can be posed on the beak in multiple ways. It also still has the one printed on the feet.What do you think? Should we make this a later stretch goal after the little one?

Bows, Pros, and Cons Poll
We have been trying out a LOT of different solutions for the bows. We want them to be interchangable, since many folks have more than one flag.Please look at and read about all options before voting. Thank you!Minky Bows:Pros:Softest, most plush, stretchy band does not need snaps, could help hook the plush to a lanyard.Cons:White shows through on the edges because of the way the Minky is printed, making it less polished looking. Colors a little m...
Gay Crime Goose Plush Size Poll
We're so excited to be making our first plush! We're just a bit torn on sizing.The 5” plush is perfectly handheld, enjoyable squish with one or two hands. Super portable and great for stress relief on the go. There is video of it in our plush reveal post.The 7” plush is more like holding a pro controller or a small kiddie football. Even squishier and stretchier, and somewhat more huggable. Less portable.Please vote for which size(s) ...
Pin Reveal: Shiba in Lesbian, Demi, & LGBTQ
Happy Pride everybody! This month we have a little shiba ready to march at your side. We wanted a pose that conveyed that they're moving forward with you, looking up at you.These pins are inspired by our own shiba, Ginko! They are also successors of our very first pin design ever. The first time we made a 'lesbian shiba" the flag was not in its final form yet, so we used a cream shiba. Now with the sunset flag, we find the red shiba w...

Pin Reveal: Tora in Trans, Polyam, & LGBTQ+
Recently we learned about how some trans folks in Japan like to use tigers as a symbol for the trans community. It's a pun: Tora is the Japanese word for tiger, and when you sound out "trans" in katakana it basically starts with "tora." To-ra-n-su. Many thanks to our twitter moot @MishimaKitan for cluing us in to this (you should follow them!)The art style on this month's printed metal pinis slightly inspired by older Japa...

Pin Reveal: Sakura Ferret in Pan, Ace Spectrum, and Philly LGBTQ

Snowdrop Fox Art
Hello everybody! Per the poll we made a couple weeks ago, we've decided to share art and comics on here a little more often. It'll probably be several images within one post, and include art related to the current pin for the month, so as to make sure we're not spamming y'all too much.These little images speak to the themes behind this month's pin (deadline Feb 29). We've always wanted a nice way to counter the 'late b...
Pin Reveal: Snowdrop Fox in Ace, Aro, & Progress LGBTQ
We've been excited to try screen-printed metal pins for a long time, because we love the way they feel like little gouache paintings you can wear. So we decided to "glow up" one of our oldest club designs into this slightly different medium of pin. What do you think?✦ The Three for this month: The Gay Breakfast is Progress LGBTQ Snowdrop Fox The Special is the Ace Snowdrop Fox The Seasonal is the Aro Snowdrop Fox✦ To get multiple ...

Posting Rate and Content!
Since Patreon has added a 'follow' feature in the wake of social media's flop era, we have been wondering if we should start to post our non-pinclub pins, concepts, illustrations, and comics here, instead of just pin reveal and discount code posts.The last thing we want to do is spam folks, or drive folks away. But we've also repeatedly heard folks say "I missed this post/drop!" and "I had no idea because my insta/twit...
Pin Style Poll for Next Quarter
Hello everyone, we thought it would be fun to have at least one of the pins in our next quarter have an aesethetic/style/theme chosen by you. If one of these dominates enough and we get enough ideas for it, it could be the whole quarter. Or, we could do one of each of the top 3, if votes are close.In the coming quarter, you'd like to see pins that are..

We hope you and yours are all settled for a cozy and warm holiday! We channeled this wish into this pin design.

Autumn Crows in Nonbinary, Metagender / Gender Neutral, and LGBTQ
Thank you for your patience, and sorry for the later-than-usual pin reveal! (The monthly store discount is 25% instead of 20% this month as appreciation for your patience.) After traveling in Japan for a month, we found ourselves more jetlagged than expected and took longer than usual to finish these designs that we started in October.

Pin Reveal: Werewolf in Lesbian, Grey Ace, and Progress LGBTQ
Werewolf was a very very close second to cat in our spooky season poll, so we decided to do that one too. It was fun to see how cute we could make it. Like last month, we also made the Seasonal pin one that could read as both a specific flag and an umbrella flag: Grey Ace and Ace respectively.✦ The Three for this month: The Gay Breakfast is Progress Pride Werewolf The Special is the Lesbian Werewolf. The Seasonal is the Grey / Ace Werewolf.✦ ...
