The funds are here!

Hi everybody,
The Kickstarter funds of C$18,956.73 have arrived in the WF biz account.
The next step will be to lock the pledges over at BackerKit (currently at about C$6500.00). We will do that now, and backers that haven't sorted their pledges yet will have 3 more days to make their choices.
From these combined payments, we will deduct the expenses for postage, production and sculpting. The rest of the $ will be split 65% / 35% as explained in the campaign.
The next update will have a bit of an expenses breakdown (Roman will get the detailed version incl. access to all invoices etc), and we will confirm that his money has been paid out to him.
Again - what a wonderful gesture from the hobby community towards Roman, and Westfalia not only has a return of their investments, but we've made a little bit of money on top of that too!
Thank you all and best wishes,
Roman & WF

We already got the ok from backerkit for our pledge manager setup, and I've invited 10% of the backers to take part in a smoke test. This is done to catch possible issues with the pledge manager before everybody gets their notification.
I expect the results of that to be in by Tuesday.
Cheers!
We are funded!

"If a lot of people do good, then a lot of good will happen"
And what an exceptionally good thing this one is! Not only will Roman go home with real money, but we will have a return of investment here at Westfalia too! Really, we can't thank you enough for your support with this project!
Next steps:
1. We will open the pledge manager in about 1 week
2. We will receive the project funds in about 2 weeks
3. We will then do the math, and send 35% of the profits to Roman
4. Cast Cast Cast
5. Fulfillment in June/July 2023!
We will make updates when milestones are being reached, but we really want to keep the project updates meaningful, so if you have a question or suggestion, then feel free to reach out to us any time under [email protected].
We will drop the next update when the pledge manager is ready is ready in a bout 1 week.
All the best,
Roman & the WF crew

Roman: This project means a lot to me and I am really very touched by how this is going. The amount of support I am receiving is beyond my boldest imagination. Thank you everyone, you are all incredible.
Kawe: At this point you are more than simple backers, you are friends that stay close in a dark hour, and words don't suffice in explaining how proud and happy I am to see our Westfalia community coming together to support Roman the way you do.

Thanks everybody for your continuing support! Roman's minion will be added to the main pedge for free! Additionally, the miniature will be made available for 10USD in the pledge manager after the campaign. If we reach 25K, then I throw another small item on the pile.
