If you choose Roman numerals, purely for aesthetics the limitation should be either 20 or 30 so the numbers would be ?/XX, or?/XXX

I dunno...I don't think that ?/XX has any more aesthetic charm than ?/XXI.

With only 21, will there be a lottery???
___________________________________________
If I had a vote, I'd say go for thirty. "XXX" is more aesthetically pleasing, more collectors will get a shot at owning one, and the quantity is still small enough to know that they are special. Also, that would be nine more books worth of sales revenue in the artist's pocket while still keeping the project manageable.
Bill brings up a good question about how these will be distributed if demand outweighs supply.

I just received ten preliminary sketches from Ned Dameron!
The sketches are of:
The Gunslinger (2)
The Albino Twins
Richard Fannin
A Stork Monster
Eddie & Susannah
A Pteradactyl Monster
Shardik's Helper Robots
Oy
A Manta Monster
I know you guys will want me to post pictures, but these are rough drawings and I would rather wait until the finished products begin to arrive.
I called Ned to let him know I had received the drawings, and he let me know that TWO of the finished books are on their way to me now! One with The Gunslinger and one with Oy.
To make these remarques special, Ned will be adding water-color accents to many...if not all of them. He included this small sample.....
I think the preliminary drawings are fantastic by themselves, but Ned tells me the finished products will be much more refined.
Stay Tuned!
Oh...and they will be numbered with just the number of the book, as in I, II, III....not I/XXI, II/XXI, III/XXI.

Rick, that sketch with watercolor accents there is great. Compliments to Ned Dameron.

OK, I will post a couple of close-up teasers......
Here is the walking-box robot (one of Shardik's helper-robots) with a little bit of the mechanical rat below it. (The full drawing has the box, rat and snake)

Luke : Yeah, well, sometimes nothin' can be a real cool hand.
Those are very awesome! I especially love the Roland and Susannah remarques.
I regret leaving my soul
I forgot I needed it, to feel
maybe when I die
I'll just grab it real quick
So Tippy,
When and where can we buy from you?.
What you should do is post each remarque and let the market bear which one goes for the best price...so the best/most elaborate will go for the most...
Plus, it's sharks in the water, so the frenzy will be fun to see...
I disagree. I say keep the prices the same for all remarque. The best sellers will be sold first and procrastinators will be left with the rest. Plus all of the remarque for sale should have some similarity in detail and consistency in it's intricacy.Originally Posted by Rahfa
