[1035] The Fourth Circle Of Hell

I'm not bitter of anything, nooooooo"

Here is a repost of the most interesting parts of the latest Kickstarter update:

PDFs in full resolution

I have decided to offer all PDFs in their original full resolution!

The reason for this is that I was not satisfied with the display quality of the originally offered reduced resolution in a test. This would have been contrary to my goal to offer the best possible product. You can think of it as reaching a stretch goal that has never been announced.

Artist reactions

I have sent a PDF of the art book to the featured artists and here are some reactions:

• "I have downloaded the sample and that is an awesome art book!"
• "The book is looking great, Oliver!"
• "BRUUHHH THIS BOOK LOOKS FIIRRREEE!!! Love it! U done so well putting this whole project together. ["] Thanks again for adding my fan art in this amazing project. I'll be getting a copy of this book myself!"

• Boss: Richard, as you know we need to ship these twenty parcels to our customers in the Netherlands by the end of this week.

• Boss: One option is we could ship them with USPS' Priority Mail Express International service.
• Richard: Certainly.

• Boss: Or you could drive to New York, fly to Amsterdam with the parcels in your luggage, rent a car at the airport, drive around in Holland to deliver the parcels, stay two days in a hotel, fly back to New York, and drive back home.
• Richard: You gotta be kidding me-

• Boss: " Which would be $476 cheaper according to my calculations.
• Richard: - Wait, what"?

• Scrooge McDuck: I'm in awe, but also slightly repulsed.
