This project started as a challenge to myself, to see if I could make a book.
With only a vague idea what it should be about, I started illustrating and from there it slowly grew.
I learned a lot about writing, editing, changing punctuation in fonts and everything else that you need to know when you print a book.
The process has been exiting and exhilarating, even more so now that I am finally able to share this little work of art, my love letter to DnD, with other enthusiasts.
The story unfolds through the journal and notes of a researcher captivated by owlbears. It tells about preconceived notions, experiences in different landscapes and exciting discoveries on how to live alongside nature.
Included in the purchase are; the book itself, a certificate of authenticity, three folders with stats in accordance with 5th edition DnD and a little handout instruction manual for a magically powered photo camera and correspondence with the friend who lent it to the main character.
This is the second pre-order. The order period will run from 15 April 2023 until 30 May 2023 and the planned shipping date will be June.
The artbook measures 22 x 21 cm. There’s 32 pages and half of those are filled with watercolor illustrations and there’s also three photographs that capture the owlbears 😉
The prints are done on 160 grams Biotop; a heavy off white paper with a nice smooth touch.
The book is hand bound with a leather cover but there’s also a paper cover option for those who prefer that.
There is a handful of color choices. I will contact you about your color preference.
I only have enough material for a few books in each color, which makes the cover more unique to you.
Below is an example image of the colors, an updated photo of available colors will be emailed to you to choose. More material will be purchased and more colors will become available.
The book costs €70,00 excl shipping.
