if you used it you would either attract a larger girly following of your work or a larger gay following of your book.

either way, it cant be bad can it?

Where did you get it printed? URL? (I wanna start doing like, print runs of 50 or so zine/comic things so I need to learn about printers)

ps.I like your art lots and lots, it's kinda like a toned down hipster version of aves_ives COREY LEWIS THE REY SUTHERLAND etc. Do you draw any ninjas?

I only printed ONE thus far on an A3 inkjet and cut and bound it myself.

I used to draw zombies but that shit got boring.

I printed it on my mate's A3 Epson inkjet printer. There's only one copy of the book in the world at the moment. I'll probably get it printed digtially or some shit, I don't know!

Well, if it looks that good in photos, the actual print quality must be great. Did you do the excellent coloring?

Really nice job, Marc. Lemme know if you need any help getting it anybody's hands.

I *might* have to take you up on that offer....

Probably about £15-£20.

£15 - £20 for how many copies? and how much would you be selling them for?

(i will explain why i'm asking the specifics later)

I think we've crossed wires.

I have no idea how much the book is going to cost to print, but I assume it'll be a lot.

If I were to sell the books, they'd cost £15-20 each. Depending on how much it costs to print.

Why are you asking me confusing questions?

(Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

astrabella
2005-02-27 09:28 am UTC (link)
haha yeah sorry. when i asked you originally i meant "how much is it going to cost for the printing of each book" not "how much would you sell them for". that's why it got confusing.

i'm asking because i was going to talk to you about possibly selling some books on my site which will be up soon, i would buy several from you up front which i thought could maybe help finance the print run (as it seemed may or may not happen based on if you can get the money together) if you wanted to do it. but it would also be dependent of course on how much they would cost, we'd have to work a wholesale price out so that you would still make money on the book and i'd be able to offer it at a reasonable price(with it still being worth my while also). plus my budget isn't THAT big. but i would like to help you out if i can.

Its funny to see people in the twisted throes of desire for something that I have already had the pleasure of reading!! IT is good though and I hope marc gets rich from selling it to you people.
Marc! I just spend £500 on a lump of beautifully carved musical wood! I feel both elated and nauseus, it is so pretty it makes me weep and the notes resonate forever!
I am in derby, it is snowy, peace and good food..
see you soon...
