Oooooh we so excited! Made a breakthrough today in the workshop. Today was a good day.
Tag: PleasureForge
I want to thank you for reblogging the Cyber Monday sale that PleasureForge was having. I purchased an item from them, and even though there were errors with the product I received, they said that they would gift me a free dildo because of their mistake. The product, and the customer service were both great from them, and I would’t of bought from them, or even known of them if it wasn’t for this blog. I left a review of their product on my profile, if you want to see the full review I left.

Store Update
We now carry a full range of materials including 0030, 0050, 10A, and 20A.
Going forward our default will continue to be 10A but later tonight the store will include an optional add on for the others.
Also adding a new glitter option tonight.
Also changing the default on most models to “marble.” Skinning/splits/fades are still available as special request but I’m finding that on the majority of designs the marbles look best.
For now we will continue to offer all castings as custom 2 colors with standard/uv/metallic/glow at no extra charge. ^_^
Bad Dragon labs winners, after spending however much time designing and perfecting a design to be community-approved and popular, after being one of the very, very few designs actually chosen to win, get $200 in cash, or $400 in Bad Dragon credit. From the beginning, you only get half the money unless you can only spend it on their own product.
If Bad Dragon chooses to make the full size range, something that has only happened to one design since 2014, there is an additional $500 in either cash or store credit.
Bad Dragon, having only supplied the means of production and a platform for people to share the ideas on, makes that same initial prize amount after selling approximately three toys. For the full size range reward, it takes about ten mediums. With no additions, or cool colors.
TL;DR withdraw your designs from BD Labs because the only one who really benefits is Bad Dragon, and you’re expendable.
Wait, I thought BD wasn’t even considering Labs designs anymore?
I thought thae labs were pretty much defunct/dead….They do not visibly approve designs any more, but submissions are still accepted. If you search designs with nothing in the box, you can see a somewhat glitchy version of the most recent submitted designs (but only the first page) and Bad Dragon is able to take these designs even before they’re published. Because of this, it is literally impossible to determine how many of Bad Dragon’s designs have been stolen from submissions that were never shown and never shared elsewhere.
I didn’t even realize submitters *could* recall their designs from Labs, to be truthful, so I was a little thrown off like, ‘is it finally open again?’
But yes, seems much better to sell a design to a smaller maker and work out getting a cut per model that sells or somethingThey are not obligated to remove submissions when asked (as it’s covered by the Terms of Submission) but the people I know of who have ticketed in to ask that their designs be removed have had the request filled. It’s by no means a perfect solution, and I’m sure they have backups of submissions so they can view them after being removed, but it’s a step closer to keeping designs safe.
Live in Florida? Have design ideas? I would literally rather let you use our equipment for a weekend to get your design made and teach you some basics than see more artists getting less than what they deserve for their wonderful work through BD.
