Time Bandits

ingridkvhardy,

ARTISTS SHOWN: Aaron Laurich, Adrien Alrik Spada, and Ingrid Hardy.

The countdown is on! The launch of Time Bandits (1981) is just two and a half weeks away! ◀︎◀︎ Follow that link! Sunday, January 3rd around 4pm Montreal/New York time I’ll be pushing that big, red button! In the meantime, even though many artists have posted samples of their sketches (and keep it up! Everywhere! 🙂 ), I’ll post some every day (or ALMOST every day) until the launch.

I’ll go ALPHABETICALLY for the scans that I have – there are a few that haven’t arrived yet. My own are also done (shocker!) and please forgive me for going out of order here and sharing them in this post too.

UFO 2: Alien Archives is LIVE!

ingridkvhardy,

Introduction

As a long-time fan of all things mysterious, conspiracy-related, and otherwise “unknown”, UFO series 1 and 2 are just so much fun to create. Personally, I read, watch, and think about all that conspiracy stuff with a light mind, and just enjoy it. Is it real? Is there truth to any of it? Maybe, maybe not… THAT’S what makes it fun! Breaking it down and considering all sides.

LINK to the campaign – UFO series 2

UFO 2: Alien Archives takes a look at some of the obelisks, glyphs, and forbidden tech that may or may not have been left behind alien visitors with three 9-card subsets. Then there is the subset “Alien Interpretation” which gives you an artistic view of aliens from some of the best artists/sketch card artists out there. Then there is a 9 card puzzle by John “Smitty” Smith! This puzzle has also been incorporated into a 5×7 flyer. But more on that below.

All the cards available:

There are 60 total cards in the MASTER set!

9 “Obelisks” base cards
9 “Text Glyph” base cards
9 “Forbidden Tech” base cards
9 “Alien Interpretation” base cards – artist interpretations of UFO and aliens
9 “Puzzle” base set by John “Smitty” Smith
9 Anaglyph cards – classic 3D cards, and the 3D glasses are included!
1 Promo Card
1 ORIGINAL art sketch card, hand drawn by some of the best artists available!
1 BLANK sketch Card
1 Checklist Card
1 Lenticular card – a flip lenticular card by that fabulous artist Lindsey Greyling from Leg Day Cards
1 Custom metal “Special Agent” card (you are not limited to one custom)
Extra: 5×7 folded flyer-version of the puzzle subset (NOT a card)

The Packaging is a tuck box. For the Master sets they will probably be shipped in two boxes. And remember, you get a FREE pair of 3D glasses!

There is lots of art samples to look at, so do visit the campaign and see what you think!

ingridkvhardy,

Historical and Heroic Dogs , the Kickstarter campaign, has ended successfully!!! I’m so, so happy to have this project fund and to be able to have it available for those who are into dogs. As someone who is now owned by two sausage dogs (and loves cats, and used to be a horse person), this is truly a passion project.

What happens now?

Good question! All the cards are already designed and printed. They are now on their circuitous way here! It will take about a week and a half for that. Once here, I’ll collate (and cut what needs cutting) and prep the sets. The autograph have been here for a couple of months already, nothing to wait for that. All they need are the COA stickers on the backs – you’ll see a photo of the human who autographed the cards for Quasi the Great, and for Crusoe the Celebrity Dachshund.

There ARE a few things to wait for, such as the lenticular “Poker” card, and a few more artist sketch cards. They are slowly arriving and look GREAT!! I’ll be sharing a few previews of those. There are indeed DIY blank sketch cards, so if you want to here any artist at all (or yourself) to do a dog sketch, you can commission the artist of your dreams to create a masterpiece to treasure!

The lenticular might arrive only in early October. Hopefully earlier, but shipping is what it is, there is nothing to do about that.

Once again, THANK YOU! If you missed out on the campaign – or know someone who did – reach out to me and I can get you what you need! The autographs of Crusoe are completely sold out, but there are a few of Quasi left. Not many though, so do get a master set level that includes one while you can. Historical and Heroic Dogs would make a wonderful gift for a dog lover this December.

Extra Master sets (with sketch cards) will be available in my store, or just contact me, in December.

More updates to come! Thank you to everyone for your support, and welcome to some new people! Your confidence is very much appreciated. I hope you enjoy the set!

very kindly
Ingrid Hardy

UFO: Legend and Lore Previews

ingridkvhardy,

Hopefully 2024 is treating you right, and things well and easy for you. This update had been planned for January 1st, but obviously that didn’t happen. Now, however, there are a few images to share with you, and I’m crossing my fingers that you will be as excited about this set as I am! The Kickstarter pre-launch page is under construction and I’ll share the link to that in a few weeks, as the actual launch date is not for a while yet. Artists have been sending scans of their work and they are gorgeous!! Lindsey is working on her base cards, and not only are they stunning, but they continue the adventures of Kitty Eerie – Aliens!
Below are a couple of my acrylic base cards, and on the back of each card is the story of the image on the front… Roswell Incident (A2) and Rendlesham Forest Incident (A3), Nimitz Encounter (A8) and the front of the Relic card.
Below are two of Leg Day Cards’ Kitty Eerie Aliens:
Below are a few of the Artist’s Sketch cards. There are 30+ artists on the set, and the list of names will be shared as we get closer to the launch date!

And don’t forget that ONLY included with the Kickstarter packages is the chance to get the metal card – a custom-printed FBA card with your photo (or someone you’d like aliens to abduct). Should you decide to get more than one set at the level the metal card will be available on, then remember you CAN have different photos on these metal cards!
Also remember that there is a Long Dog Cards group on Facebook and artists are allowed to post their work there whenever they wish, so it is a good way to see what is happening as it happens: https://www.facebook.com/longdogcards/That is is for this update! Do contact me if you have any questions! There will be more previews and updates soon.Contact me through Messenger or by email: ingridhardy32@gmail.com

Dragons Special Venue!

ingridkvhardy,

Beginning Monday August 7th and ending August 14th (for SEVEN DAYS ONLY) there will be a Special Venue for Dragons’ Kickstarter backers only. Kickstarter backers get special prices, first picks, all that good stuff.

After that, leftovers will be made public! They’ll be available directly through me, or through Messenger, email, and probably Etsy, while I get the store set up here.

If you are on Facebook, please join the Long Dog Group to keep up with announcements, share you card pulls, see what cards others have pulled and might have available. As I write this the group has just over 140 members! We also sometimes share posts from RRParksCards, Leg Day Cards (my podcast co-host Lindsey Greyling), RJF Image/Design, Attic Cards, Perna Studios, and others.
