FULLY FUNDED! So what happens next?

Well we finally did it! We ended up with €5637 from 193 backers, which smashed my previous record of €5132 from 142 backers. Although my official target was €3000, the truth was that I was really hoping for around €5000; so things went perfectly in that respect :) And all because of you awesome backers! It's been an exciting and nervous month and I'm extremely relieved it all worked out as well as it did. The majority of Kickstarters are unsuccessful so you never know how these things will go....
There's still a lot of work to do though. Firstly, Kickstarter will charge your credit card (this process has begun). Not long after, you will receive your reward surveys to fill out. To receive your rewards BACKERS HAVE TO FILL OUT THEIR SURVEYS! Sorry for screaming but it's very important... I'm using Backerkit to coordinate everything and they will be sending you surveys soon so keep a look out for an email from them. The surveys are very simple to fill out and you'll actually be able to add on any items that you missed out on.
On our side, we will be finalising the digital rewards and will have these out to you hopefully within a few weeks. One story is still to be coloured and then our designer will finish off the print file send to our printer - Pulsio Print. I'll post an update once printing has started.
This time around, I will take care of the distribution from France and Holland, rather than using a distributor. I'll keep everyone updated.
Once again, a massive thank you from The Murky Waters team for placing your confidence in us!

Hello backers!
We've hit the final stretch and we're 172% funded with 45 hours remaining. Not only did we smash the second stretch goal this morning, but we've hammered my previous funding and backer records. All thanks to you!
We're now aiming for our third stretch goal of €6000, which is that all physical backers will receive a mini-print of Tula Lotay's stunning Murky Waters cover. Digital backers will receive a digital version. I've had several people mention they'd like Tula's cover as a poster and I really can't disagree.
Thanks again for all your support!

Blown away today to receive our fifth pledge to the producer level tier of Murky Waters!
Not only will these backers be named in the credits as producers in the physical and digital versions of the anthology, but they will receive an exclusive producer tote bag, four copies of the anthology, The Resurrected trade paperback and loads of other Carnouche Productions merchandise. Not to mention my everlasting appreciation of your generosity. Times are tough for people right now, so I'm even more honoured than usual that you chose to help produce our project :)
The campaign is going super well and we are 158% funded with three days remaining.
While you're here, I wanted to shout-out another awesome Aussie run horror comic book on Kickstarter:
CRUCIFIX EXECUTIONER” Issues #1-5
"The perfect combination of a Gritty Crime Thriller and Gruesome Slasher Flick."

FIRST STRETCH GOAL SMASHED - LUCY SULLIVAN PRINT FOR ALL PHYSICAL BACKERS!

We've well and truly smashed our first stretch goal with one week to go!
Every backer of a physical tier will now receive a wonderful art print from Lucy Sullivan, the writer/artist of the smash-hit graphic novel 'Barking.' All digital backers will receive a digital version of the print, but of course they are still able upgrade their digital tiers to physical ones.
I'll announce the second stretch goal shortly.
Here are a few samples of Lucy's work for those who missed the first announcement.

If we hit 5000 euros, all physical backers will receive a Carnouche Productions fridge magnet. That's in addition to the Lucy Sullivan art print that backers will receive from the first stretch goal.
The skull for the logo was designed by my good mate, and world-famous graffiti artist 'Dmote.' Check his work out here - Dmote.
Hopefully we can smash this stretch goal the same way we did the last one.
Thanks again for all your support and for backing our anthology!
