Hi, quick comments from me... :)

I haven't seen your video yet but the photos look good. I'm not so keen on the B&W ones as the colour "action shots" look best as people can relate to it and probably imagine wearing the backpack.

Backpacks have generally done well on KS, yours looks more like a leather bag though rather than a backpack. Also, if the focus is on "leather" then probably write in detail about how it was formed and possibly a couple of photos showing how it was made?

You should integrate your Twitter and FB on the page.

Finally, I'm not sure about your tiers. You've got x3 first tiers with handwritten notes and thank you's before you actually get to buy a bag. I'd personally reduce it to one £1/£5 tier of a "thank you" and then the 2nd tier would be the early version of the bag itself.

Good luck with this project, it looks good. If you'd like "hands on" help with this project, feel free to get in touch!
