I’ve been doing it wrong this whole time. Working on the weekends and lunch hours, putting my models up for free when what I really should have been doing is KickStarting basic modeling projects. Never mind that this has already been done over 400 times, and in many cases better and more comprehensive. Plus every single one of those use less plastic and take less time. This is just a bad idea.
Somehow 3DKitBash’s KickStarter has nearly reached their goal, or maybe even reached their goal by the time that you read this. This is shameful. I understand wanting to be paid for your work, but this adds nothing. Why are people paying for it? I could not, in good conscious, do what they’re doing with the smiles they have on their faces. I just couldn’t do it. How do I get a hold of the people supporting this so I can tell them not to?

I don’t hate KickStarter. In fact there are at least 2 projects that I want to KickStart when my current project is done. But hey, if I can get a grand every time I model a replacement pull handle, maybe I should do that. Micro-kickstarters FTW. Set the goal small enough so that by the time people realize they’ve been had I’m out the door with the money.
