Transforming Collections Proof Pages

I’ve now reviewed and approved all of the page samples for Transforming Collections. I could easily go back and reshoot every single photo — the images are just slightly darker than I wanted them — but realistically the shots look great and I am sure the book will be well-received once it reaches all of the backers. “Perfect is the enemy of done,” as they say, so rather than continue to stress and strive for perfection — which will never happen — I’ll instead satisfy myself with the knowledge that these photos are superior to those in several toy guides I own.

Click through for more shots of the proofing pages. The pages arrived in two versions — one for page sequencing and general look, the second for color quality — and what’s shown here are photos of both types of proofs. I’m shipping the proofs back to the printer now; we can expect the final books to ship the end of June.

  1. Those sample photos look fantastic! Looking forward to getting my copies of this book and sharing it with my friends! Thanks for all the effort!!

  2. Are you sure shipping in late June is a good idea with the majority of the purchases(i suspect) going to be at BotCon

  3. @Marv – I’ll collect addresses from everyone the first week of June and ship once the books are completely printed and ready. I’m assuming everyone who is away when the books ship has their mail held (or someone checking their mail).

    But you make me ask: How many backers are going to be at BotCon? I won’t be there this year.

  4. I have never had my mail held to be honest. Botcon is on my list for this year as usual.

  5. @drrampageo – You and me both! I’m still kinda nervous about how the finished book will look, but I’m always nervous about how a printed product will look once it arrives.
