Very nice, although I have to admit, my son's girlfriend could have been the model (without wings, prominent pointy ears, etc.)
That is plain scary how you have captured her face and body-type.

Very good figure. Good customization options.
I'm a little unease about the left foot, it doesn't feel right, but this is a minor detail.

Released! Click here for more pictures and information! You can find "Pay What you Want" option on this product. It means you can get these minis for however much money you think they’re worth for you. Please support our team so we can afford to make more minis for you! This set contains 10 elven/fairy cardstock miniatures. Each of them is customizable with button and layers.  Thank you! |

Anyone else downloaded these yet? I am struggling with the layers and buttons - I have managed to switch on the wings (of two out of the first three) but cannot get the colours I have selected for clothing, hair etc to show up on the miniatures... They are there - when the first page reloads it shows the colours I have selected before reverting back to the default white. On the second page - the print out - there is no change....
Any advice?
Edit - I am using Adobe Reader X if that has any relevance...

I thought the issue may have been something to do with the "signing" process Adobe Reader insists on - it won't let me click on any buttons until the pdf has been signed. But once I sign and save it the first page now scrolls rapidly through the ten different fairies, without giving me the chance to click on any buttons, before stopping with the final one. But buttons no longer work on it....

I haven't heard of "Pay what you want" before. That is a double-edged sword... I am sure there are those people that snatch things up for free, and I hope there are people that actually pay what the set is worth. The other side of the coin is people may be more likely to get your stuff if they feel like it is a good price (since they set it themselves). Either way, I wish you the best of luck with this. I set a price that I thought was fair (based on other sets I purchase), so I hope that it was "enough" for you. (I wish I could have given you more, but I am somewhat limited, atm). As far as the issues Migibb experienced, I didn't have a problem (I am using Acrobat 11 Pro). You may have to wait for the layers to cycle through and then they will show up. Even with my processor, it took a minute... FANTASTIC options and brilliant artwork! I LOVE that since you can change the colors of the "balls," I can use these in my WARMANCER'S ARENA game, and can make them "Mage Orbs" for determining spells.  Thanks! |

Interestingly, if you check through the "Free stuff" on RPG NOW/DriveThru RPG, products with this "Pay what you want" code come up under that heading. For this gorgeous-looking set, if you go to its "Reviews" page - impressive there's already been a review! - you find there's a price of $4.45 instead!
I must admit, I'm not sure about this "Pay what you like" concept in general. If producers wish to give away such a set free, that's fine as long as they're happy with that. If a price is stated, which seems a reasonable thing to do from what I've seen online, and given the amount of time and effort involved in creating such a product, then everyone knows where they stand, and people can feel they're giving reasonable support to the producer. It seems rather an awkward compromise to me, as if nobody's really sure what such things are worth anymore. Plus I'd guess more people will go with "nothing", human nature being what it is.
Migibb: With layers - I don't have this set yet, but have dealt with a lot of PDF documents containing them in recent times - you do need to be patient and let the system cycle through if there are a lot, as Kiladecus said. I'm using Adobe Reader X as well. If there are buttons to click on on the actual page to print (bearing in mind I haven't seen it!), and they're causing problems, you may want to try opening the "Layers" sidebar on the left of the Adobe Reader window instead, as that should give you the same options, and may be more robust in carrying out the operations.

lordzsezse - I have downloaded a new copy of the file(s) and they work a treat!!! Very nice work!!! Thank you very much indeed! Quick question for you though - on the cover Kordille (the kneeling one with the curvy sword) is shown with red hair, but there is no red in the seven colour options that I can see. Am I missing something? (Only ask because being a redhead myself.....)  |

The button colors aren't an exact match. For some pieces the brown button turns the piece red.

All these options are giving me a headache choosing a good fit. I want to print two or three of each figure making a very diverse set, but there's too much trying to find the best combinations.

Thank you for the replies! Yes, there are some minis where colors on their hair are different (red/brown) It was my mistake, I made cover from the first version of minis and there was different colors somewhere. Sorry! The Pay what you want option is a tentative stuff on DrivethruRpg/Rpgnow, if someone interested we can publish our results after the first week/month. Kiladecus as you said it is a double-edged sword. It's cool if you make something directly for free but you get some support. We don't know how it will work on a new and priced product. So currently it is an experiment. Unfortunately if we do that we can't compare the results with the same product without 'pay what you want'. So it will be longer process. |

It would be interesting to know how it worked out for you, as I imagine others might consider using the method if it went well. If not, I guess even more people would want to know, to be warned off! |
