Hello!
Thank you to all of you who have completed the survey. I haven't sent out the concept art .pdf yet, but here's my tentative UTENSIL schedule:
- concept art pdf sent out by the end of April
- get chapters 1-5 formatted for print by the end of April
- get chapters 6-10 formatted for print by the end of May
- get extras done and send off to printers by June
If the printing place I'm going to doesn't change their prices by the time I finish formatting pages, it'll probably be around $15 per book. I might have mentioned wanting a book with Ch1-9 and Ch10 in full color, and having an omnibus version black and white with all the chapters. Due to financial issues, I may have to either go without the Ch1-9 book and print an omnibus and Ch10 in color. OR I could go without the omnibus version and only print UTENSIL in two volumes, one in black & white and have the last chapter in color, but we'll see what I can do.
Note that this is all still subject to change. I try my best to keep to schedule, but I have other priorities, too.
You are still welcome to take the survey, if you'd like! And I'll still send the concept work when it gets done. I'll make a news post when I send it out. Thanks for your patience, everyone!
