HELLO!
Take your minds back to July this year. I discovered on Facebook I believe that Paul Kidby was doing a kickstarter project. This interested me as I have been a fan ever since I saw 'The Art Of Discworld' in high school. I believe it was 'The Wee Free Men' book by Terry Prachett was the first time I had seen discworld art and it really helped me to imagine what the wee free men looked like, even though Terry Prachett's description was amazing. lol!
'The Art of Discworld'
'The Wee Free Men' By Terry Prachett
Anywho back to July and the Kickstarter! I went to
kickstarter to peruse what he had to offer and discovered it was an art book! OMG I was so excited! He wanted to make a book he had published in french already, as an english book. All I could say was TAKE MY MONEY! I decided to give £20 as this got me a copy of the book, a bookmark and a personalised card :) (with these projects, you get rewards/prizes for the amount you give) This was enough for me :D.
As the project went on he surpassed his pledge by over £20.000, so he started to add things onto the rewards. Along with the book, bookmark and card, I was also going to receive a folio of prints! I was even more excited! They were bloody beautiful!
I;m gonna put up some pics of his work just so you can appreciate his awesome :D
The Great A'tuin <3
