Furfunding Week in Review 2-16-14
This week’s illustration is from the kickstarter for Migration by Jeo Cannon
Patreon continues to be a popular destination for fandom content providers. At some point I need to redress how best to feature Patreon projects and pages, they’re getting to be a bit like tribbles, piling up everywhere! Ach :)
This week’s reviews: The all-minotaur tabletop RPG “The Clay that Woke” and steampunky goodness with “Brick Port Dogs.”
On an unrelated note, I’ll be giving the “Crowdfunding for furries” panel at Furry Fiesta this Saturday! Please stop by and say “hi” if you’re in the area! I’d also welcome the input of an experienced crowdfunder at the table :)

Naughty Pups (Ends: 3/8/2014)

Hmm…it’s kind of like someone made a vaguely naughty fandom about dog-based leather play, and farmed the props out to Cafepress. I like the rainbow paw print tee though.
