The Art of HDGG + LIMITED EDITION Sketch Page
This is a one of a kind opportunity to own a piece of Hand-Drawn Game Guides history. You can now own an actual page from The Art of Hand-Drawn Game Guides book! In addition to getting a copy of the digital 'Art of' book, you will get a random actual physical page. These aren't prints, they're the real deal.
The random page varies in quality. Some pages are more fleshed out than others, most pages feature a front and a back side. Some pages have lots of notes, some lots of sketches, some a little of both, and some have lots of rips and tears in them. You won't know which game the page is coming from. Each Physical Page comes in a white matte waiting to be framed, along with a short hand-written description of the page itself, and a Hand-Drawn Game Guides sticker.
In short here is what you get:
Art of Hand-Drawn Game Guides PDF
Randomly Selected Physical Page w/ white matte
Personalized Hand-Written note about the page
HDGG Sticker
Free Shipping!
You might have some questions, so I will be upfront & honest about it!
"What if I want more than one?"
I will not allow people to buy multiple of these. One page per person. It is set to only allow each person to buy one, but I know in the past this just caused people to make multiple transactions. I will not allow that, and if I catch it you will be refunded FOR ALL OF YOUR ORDERS. So you will get zero pages. I don't know if I'll ever be able to offer something like this again, so don't try and ruin it for others.
"Are these the same pages that were offered during the HDGG Kickstarter?"
Yes. The truth is I had already bought the white mattes for these and had them ready to go. I know it may feel unfair if you had one of these secured during the Kickstarter campaign but sadly I have no real way of honoring that campaign. Personally, I'd feel crummy reaching out to each person and saying "Hey do you want to buy this thing?" It just doesn't feel right. So I'm offering them here as part of the launch of this digital book.
"You're really only shipping these in the US?"
Yes. These are very limited quantities and I'm covering the shipping costs. I will just be upfront in saying it's going to be easier on me to ship these locally.
"What if I don't like the page I get? Can I request a game?"
You're taking a bit of a risk ordering this. It could come from a game you don't care about. BUT what I can guarantee is that these are the real thing, with concepts and ideas that went into the actual books. I'm treating each one with the same care that I've put into anything else I've sold on this shop before. These are being randomly sent out, in no particular order. You cannot make a request from a particular game you want.
"When will they ship?"
It might take me a week or two to ship these. They're technically all ready to roll, but I have not made all the custom hand-written notes for them yet. So I need to set aside time to get it all together. But you will get notified when your order ships and you'll be able to track it and all that good stuff.
