Volume II: Misprint Edition!

Alex — Sun, 18 Oct 2009 04:21:12 +0000

Back when I took preorders for Garanos Volume II artist’s editions, due to an error on my part preparing the pages, page 195 was printed without any shading. I don’t know what happened where, but I clearly didn’t save the final version back when I first colored the page, so my first order of Volume II looked something like this:

It doesn’t really affect the narrative, as only one line of dialogue is omitted from the page, but as it stands, I have a whole stack of books misprinted in this fashion that I’d like to get rid of. So if you’re interested in owning one of these misprinted copies, today’s your lucky day!

These books are signed and numbered in two runs; some of the original run of 15 books, and the second run of 5 books. There are 14 books available, which I will distribute randomly. These are NOT Artist Editions, and thus will not have drawings in them– since I want to get rid of them, they are a bit cheaper than Artist Editions, plus it keeps the Artist Editions special for those people who chose to take a misprinted book instead of waiting for a corrected copy.

The version that will be on IndyPlanet is indeed the corrected (re-shaded) version, so if you order from them in the future, you wont get a misprint. ^_^ Now, without further ado, the order form.

Garanos Volume II Misprint Edition!

This offer will be up until I sell out of the books.

Last day for Volume II Artist’s Editions!

Hey guys, just a reminder that pre-orders for Artist’s Editions of Volume II will end tonight at midnight, EDT.

Oh, and if you’re subscribed to Garanos’ feed and viewing updates in a feed reader, you might have noticed that older posts are slipping in as new updates every now and then. I don’t know how to stop it, since I’m not very feed-savvy, so just ignore them! They don’t seem to be doing any harm. ^_^

Everyone have a good weekend!

High-Quality Vote Incentive!

Hey folks! Long story short, I’m on the go as I post this update, and to my dismay it seems that Save For Web in Photoshop is too big to display the whole dialog window on my little laptop screen. (I have a netbook.) So today’s page, 371, which was colored on the laptop, had to be compressed with Photoshop’s default JPEG compression, and thus it looks really artifact-y.

SO. For the vote incentive today, you can see the page in crystal clear PNG-O-Vision without the bad compression!

I’ll recompress it again when I get to a bigger monitor and replace the file that’s up now, but that wont be till this weekend. ^_^

Remember that Artist Editions for Volume II are also open through this Friday! And thank you very much to everyone who has already placed their orders. ^_^
