Shame, they were doing some cool work with the costumes. Unfortunately for him, if he's hoping to make it in the industry in any capacity, you can't have abandoned kickstarters on your resume and expect it to not haunt you. So, sucks for him...

Don't those type of costumes quickly go bad, too? Like immediately start to rot and decay?

He had some reward tiers where some character heads went to big backers. Curious how that is working out.

Presumably it didn't, because he'd need the heads to film the movie with and apparently he hasn't filmed anything yet.

Failed projects like that make it much harder for other creators to gain steam on their works because of all the bad precedents that burn backers' goodwill.

90% of these fan projects always fail or get abandoned. I think the only one that actually happened was that short Casey Jones fan film from a few years ago?

So all that time and all that money and they didn't even film anything beyond that trailer. I'd call it a complete sham if it wasn't for the costume updates. Sounds like they were expecting to just sit around and wait til they got every last penny they asked for and THEN get to work. And isn't offering DVDs kinda asking for Viacom to come after them?

Maybe he should have used more shots like these when promoting the film to get some extra attention and cash?

3 days ago he was talking about doing it again. Needs "materials," though.

So he's looking to pull another scam from a new wave of unwitting casuals that are riding the current TMNT hype train. I see.

Two notable parties now involved with Scott's TMNT project, Cosplayer @graciethecosplaylass (looks to be playing April O'Neil) and @quick6productions (presumably doing some cinematography):
