Hi guys!
It's been a while since the launch of Requiem, but I wanted to share the good news. Collectively, we've raised a total of $5,074.66 for charity: water! Thank you guys so much for all of your support, this definitely wouldn't have happened without you. Also, a big thank you to all of the artists that participated in this art book and helped spread the word. You guys are amazing! (:
Hi, everyone! It’s been a year since we first came up with our Attack on Titan artbook and it’s thanks to everyone that we’ve made it this far. That is why we’d like to thank all of our supporters with a limited time discount for our Black Friday sale!
Have a special someone you’d like to give a memorable gift to for Christmas? Surprise them to a wonderful, heartwarming collection of artworks of man-eating titans!
Perfect for every friend, family member, or pet! From now until December 1st, you will be able to purchase our 85+ page hardcover artbook for the discounted price of $25! Randomly selected orders will also receive a postcard from our limited edition items pool. Also, if you have previously ordered an artbook and have yet to receive your copy, whether you are an artist who participated or a customer, please send us a note and we will try to resolve any issues.
Anime Expo, one of the biggest anime conventions in the United States, is coming up! And to celebrate over 200 sales of our Attack on Titan Charity Artbook, we would like to announce another contest to win one of the few remaining acrylic charms from the limited edition pool!!
The rules are simple. Anyone attending Anime Expo with a copy of our charity artbook, or an order number from Storenvy may participate! Many of the artists who have graciously participated in our artbook also happen to be tabling at Anime Expo." Find them and get a signature on their work (or a piece of paper with your order number if your copy is still being shipped out). Then, send us a note at operation-requiem.deviantart.com or an email at operation.requiem.artbook@gmail.com with pictures of the signatures and we will raffle off one of our few remaining acrylic charms. (: Our 86 page hardcover artbook will also be sold at the following tables: yuumei at tables A/B 37-38 (Saturday and Sunday) feyuca at table I34 chowpan at table I35 And the artists that you will need to find and get the signature numbers from are:
Hi! We'd like to thank everyone who purchased our pre-orders. We wouldn't have gotten this far without your help. I'm nearly done with shipping out orders so I'll go ahead and open up regular orders! Also, we have some leftover acrylic charms, buttons, and postcards, so there will be 8 more Silver and Bronze editions up for grabs! (: You can purchase them at our Storeenvy Shop!
Unfortunately, international shipping took a greater toll on us than we expected so it will be increased to $20. We apologize for this inconvenience. If you have any questions, feel free to contact us.
Are you going to ship all the books with cardboard backing. I read for international your looking into some type of protection. But I think you should look into doing some type of protection for the top and bottom for US shipping. I got some books damage from local shipping. Anonymous from California
We will be reinforcing our domestic shipping with bubble wrap over the durable hard covers. If you are worried your individual shipment, please email operation.requiem.artbook@gmail.com with your name, order number and address and we will address these concerns by a case by case basis. Thank you!
About when will our books arrive? XD I'm so excited
We're aiming for a late May to June shipment! :)
What are the Dimensions of the book.
It's a hard cover book, 8.5 " x 11 " with 87 pages.
Will I be able to buy the book at a later date? I didn't make the preorder dates.
Of course! We will also be selling them in person at Anime Expo. :)
Building on the other anon's talk about bubble mailers ... Some regions they really don't care whether it says "do not bend" or not. Might want to look into possibly the cardboard mailers or adding some really sturdy cardboard backing. If the mailmen can't bend it, usually they don't try. At least that's my experiences with artbooks + bubble mailers. Always a tearful affair when books gets bent. -- Anon, from Canada
Thanks so much for the useful advice! We're looking into foam wrapping right now, and will definitely take your advice and look more into cardboard backing.
How are you going to ship the book? If you use bubble mailers can you make sure to wrap the book to protect the book. I had issue with sellers just thinking the flimsy bubble mailers enough protection especially with hardcover books. Flimsy bubble mailers are not enough protection especially for a hardcovers book.
Thanks for the concern! Currently, we're planning on using bubble mailers. We'll also look into foam wrapping, especially for long-distance shipping.
When will the books actually be shipped out? And how long do you think it will take?
As we've had complications assembling the artbook together, we are now looking to print the books by early to mid-June. We're very sorry for this delay! If you have any further questions, please let us know.
