Inklings

I just got the greatest idea ever.

Or maybe the worst idea ever.

Regardless, I'm following my gut. This time, I'm doing something for me. I'm getting a book printed of all of my sketches, designs, characters, et cetera. There will be a number of finished illustrations, concept pieces and storyboard layouts, but for the most part it will be nasty, dirty, gritty sketch work because I can't think of anything else that better describes my art style or creative process. The book will be called "Inklings", a double play on the word "ink" and the meaning of "idea" because I am just too gosh darn clever for my own good.

A lot of things I've never shown anyone, and some personal things will be included.

So far the book will be about 30 pages, hard cover and full color. My guesstimate of the cost is around 30$ with shipping. I will let you know if this needs to be adjusted, but I'm not planning on making a profit off of these, just pay whatever the production and shipping are and you can have one. I figure its the least I can do for my friends and family (though, the thought of my family actually seeing my artwork leads me to believe I'll only be further ostracized).

I'm placing the order by this next weekend (Aug 30). If anyone wants one, let me know. This is the only time I'm offering and I'm only offering because everyone I know seems interested in getting one. I just have two weeks to have a finished printed version in my hands for class and so time is kind of an issue. Unfortunately, I'm strapped for cash (I thought I was getting paid this week) so if you want one, I kind of need the cash in hand before I order it. I do have paypal if that is convenient for you, if you wish to use that, contact me and I'll send you my info.

I'll post some sample pages up this week.
