This is really interesting to see! Not only does it look great, but I had no idea that artbooks on Kickstarter were a thing. I backed you (naturally). I might need to consider doing this myself someday.
I saw you're pledge, thanks for that.
Art books (of our kind) are kind of in an odd spot on kickstarter. Genre wise they fit in well along side comic books and games, but instead are put in the genre neutral publications section. If you have the following and they're asking for it, it's very achievable to kickstarter a book. You just need to handle your pre hype and publicity properly.
Interesting. Thanks for the info.
