I’m really starting to think this is coming together. Now that all the elements are in the same format (all vector, no sketches left in the layout) I’m liking it much more.

Colors STILL temporary.

Pin art progress. As of last night.

Jody and I are co-signers on a joint account at BECU. The account is established with the sole purpose of managing the funds for this project.

As initial capitol comes in, we will gather the money there.

Once we’ve collected enough to pay for the production of the pins, we’ll pay the vendor out of this account.

Payments from the purchase of the pins will also go here, and will be stored until we’re ready to make the donation to the “Hutch.”

I may have neglected to mention that the Space Needle did, in fact, approve the use of the likeness of Seattle’s most famous landmark in our artwork.

Thanks to David Mandapat and Erin Peterson at the Space Needle for all their help!

Just wanted to respond to a few comments here.



The colors seen in this in-progress image a so not final!!

I simply needed to assign some colors to my artwork so I could keep track of layering and such. The final color choices should be much closer to the scene in the film ( The Empire Strikes Back, 1980 -- http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0080684/ )
