Any news on how far you've come to reaching the end of fulfilling your KS, Horatiu? :) The delay has been more than a year now, after all. :)
Creator David Gould on May 3
I never posted back but thank you. Wonderful stuff. Adds to my collection nicely.
Creator Grefven on April 9
Even if I havn't received the product yet, I am still looking forward to your next project, Horatiu. :)
Creator Horatiu Radoiu on April 7
No, pdf's have not gone out yet. I've been busting my butt trying to get the books out as soon as possible and trying to find the right packaging for the prints so I just haven't had time yet. As soon as everything is out and on it's way I'm going to sit down and start sending out all of the pdf books. It's just a matter of me not having enough time haha. But no worries, I should be getting to it asap. I only have one more round of books to send out and pack and all should be done. It's just been taking a while since I mostly have to do it at night after school and work.
John and Ryan, I am so glad you guys like the book! I'm glad I could deliver a quality product and I'm hoping to step my game up even more on the next project. Definitely learned a lot through this, both from a business and time management perspective, but also from a print perspective. A lot of trials and errors on this book led me to learn a lot about putting together the best product I can.
Creator John Bergman on April 7
got the hardcover Saturday. Very nice work Horatiu! Almost don't want to remove the plastic :)
Creator Ryan Andes on April 5
Horatiu, just got the book today, it looks spectacular! I did have a question about the pdf though, either I missed an email with instructions, or didn't receive it. I really don't want to destroy the hardcover, it's too beautiful. Is there any way to get it at this point?
Creator Ryan Andes on March 29
Awesome! Can't wait to see the book!
Creator Horatiu Radoiu on March 28
Yes, they're in, and I've been packing them the past few nights. I'm shipping out the first wave tomorrow and getting more packing supplies so I can hopefully send out the rest as soon as I can. Everything should all be sent out by next week at the latest, it's just a matter of timing some runs to the post
Creator Ryan Andes on March 27
Any word on the hardcover editions yet?
Creator R1artwork on March 4
Hye Horatiu,I just got it this morning! It's a "magnifique" book!;oD Your french is good too!
Creator Horatiu Radoiu on March 2
Half the books are out and on their way already. All that's left are a number of hardcovers where the cover got messed up and the printer is redoing them. The envelopes and contents are all ready minus the books so the last part should be on it's way as soon as I have the books in hand :)
Creator Heather Seibel on March 1
I just got mine in the mail today.
Creator R1artwork on March 1
either for me. Nothing in the mail box. The boat had maybe sunken between States and France?:oc
Creator Heather Seibel on February 28
I haven't gotten my book yet. Was wondering if you'd sent it.
Creator Horatiu Radoiu on January 23
Danielle, resending it now. Let me know if you get it, if not just shoot me a message with your address and I'll make note everything is up to date shipping wise :)
Creator Danielle Horvath on January 22
I didn't get the survey...are you able to resend?
Creator Fabrice Pelletier on January 18
It's surely lower than shipping to the rest of the world but don't know more...
Creator Horatiu Radoiu on January 18
To be completely honest I have no idea what the shipping rates are to canada. Is it a lot more than shipping in the continental u.s.?
Creator Fabrice Pelletier on January 18
Nice! Is Canada international? Because, if so, I forgot the extra 10$...
Fabrice Pelletier
Creator Antonio Garcia on January 18
Just got it! It is finally happening!
Creator Horatiu Radoiu on January 18
Surveys sent! :)
Creator Antonio Garcia on January 9
@Horatiu: Thanks for the update! Does that mean that the surveys will be sent next week?
Creator Horatiu Radoiu on January 7
Everything should be out and in your hands by the end of january :)
Putting in overtime to ship everything out as quickly as I can. I'll also be contacting everyone abut the commissions as well as draw the winners of the commissions and get those done too.
Hoping to have this out to you guys post haste!
Thank you for all of the patience, and I'm sorry for the wait, a lot of lessons learned for sure from this. Thank you again and you should have the books in your hands with sketches shortly :)
Creator Jim on January 1
Well, it's 2013, time for an update....
Creator Grefven on January 1
Have you got any updates for us, Horatiu? :) We are eagerly awaiting your comic books. :)
Creator John Bergman on December 18
any update?
Creator Jim on October 28, 2012
Did you get the proofs back?
Creator Horatiu Radoiu on October 3, 2012
Me too! Sorry for the lapse in time from my last update. But I am excited to start printing the books :)
Creator Jim on October 2, 2012
Well I'd say that's pretty big news. That's great, and thanks for the update. Really looking forward to the book!
Creator Horatiu Radoiu on October 2, 2012
Book is done, sending out files for the test book today :)
Creator Jim on October 2, 2012
No news?
Creator Jim on September 1, 2012
Horatiu, how are things?
Creator Jim on July 26, 2012
Wow. Just checked out your tumblr. Amazing stuff, man.
Creator Nathanial Perkins on July 24, 2012
I have to admit, it's a bit of a tease to keep seeing all of the great work you are posting on your Tumblr, I'm looking forward to getting my copy!
Creator Horatiu Radoiu on July 10, 2012
Thank you so much for the support guys! I always meant for this to be a book about the art, something that is more than just panels, so I'm striving for the best quality, even if it takes me a little bit longer. I just finished 2 more pages yesterday so I'm feeling good about getting this done soon. It definetly has been a huuge learning experience, and I'm really trying to make this something I could truly be proud of. And in all honesty, this is the piece of work I am most proud of out of everything that I have done!
Creator Jim on July 7, 2012
Horatiu, I hope everything is ok. Definitely take the time you need.
It's great that you are truly happy with how it's turning out, and I'm happy to be a part of your growing and learning experience. You've got great things ahead in your future. Wish I had a fraction of your artistic talent.
Creator Antonio Garcia on July 6, 2012
That sucks. I'm glad that you've marched on through, and that you've found a great way to vent that thanks to your art.
Creator Horatiu Radoiu on July 6, 2012
A little slower than anticipated. I couldn't have forseen some of the personal things going on that hurt my progress but after all of the bad stuff I'm finally back in the game. The book is mostly done, and I'm planning on cracking down next week to fully complete it.
Good news, it's gonna get extra pages of story, which I hope you guys will enjoy :)
If people are interested in a preview, I can give you guys a link to check it out. Trust me, I'm so anxious to get this done and in your hands, as well as my own. It's been my first project that I can say I'm fully happy with and excited for. A true growing experience as an artist and writer as well!
Creator Jim on July 2, 2012
How's it coming along?
Creator Suzie Q Sailaway on May 4, 2012
How exciting! Even if I don't end up winning a commission, it'll be great to see your finished works. :D
Creator Antonio Garcia on May 4, 2012
Great! Be sure to do an update with some of the new pages so we all get an email about it!
Creator Horatiu Radoiu on May 4, 2012
Plugging away at pages, got a few more in the basket! I'll keep you guys posted when it's done, so I can do the drawing for the commissions as well as email those who got commissions and start on those
Creator Jim on May 3, 2012
How's that awesome artwork coming along?
Creator Antonio Garcia on April 29, 2012
Damn, over $3,000! Congrats! Soooo, how many chances to win a commision? 5, right? Hehehe.
Creator Horatiu Radoiu on April 29, 2012
Thank you everyone! This has been an amazing experience and I cannot wait to get the books in your hands. I will update you on progress and the backers with rewards including commissions and being in the book I will email. In the following weeks I will be finishing up the artwork to the book. I'll post progress as it goes and then the books will be on their way to the printers and soon thereafter in your hands.
Again, I cannot express my gratitude to each and every one of you enough. This has been huge, as this is my first book ever printed, and I hope you guys enjoy it. If you do I will keep you posted, as there are many other books I would love to get a chance to do.
Now to get back to drawing out some pages :)
Creator Pierre Blanchet on April 29, 2012
