La Macchina Bellica: Volume 1 Preorders -Closed-

Mon Jul 13, 2009, 8:24 AM
Sketch + Color Commissions are CLOSED!

Update 7/13: I have recieved 29 preorders- close enough for me to order the books, but not close enough for the additional discount. :( I have sent all the paypal invoices!

Once I recieve the books (sometime between the 27th and 31st of the month), I will post up a notice and make a shipping list. I'll bring 5-8 books with me to work every day and ship out in batches during my lunch break.

I will also be taking orders at Otakon to be shipped out following the preorder shipment.

Any books not spoken for after Otakon will be placed up for sale after I ship all the orders (First week of August).

Thanks everyone for the overwhelming support and interest! I'm so surprised and incredibly pleased at how well the preorder went!






Lulu is offering a sale on bulk orders of comic sized books that is just too good for me to not try to hit, and it's only going on until July 14th, so I thought I would see if maybe I can get enough preorders for me to do this!


My proof copy is still in production, but it should arrive before the order deadline so I can check it for errors. Chances are, the books won't be done in time for Otakon, but if I can get enough interest, I can rush the original 25 I was going to order to get them in time for Otakon and then place the sale bulk order, and books could be picked up if desired. (Lulu has a huge jump in production time for orders over 25, and orders under 25 can be rushed and printed the next business day instead of 3-5)


:flame:La Macchina Bellica: Volume One:flame:
Full color cover (when I get home, I'll upload the wraparound cover. Don't laugh at my book description, it was ad lib. )
143 B&W pages interior

$15 including first class shipping within the USA
$12 per book if I can get over 40 preorders

:flame: Deadline for Preorders: Sunday, July 12th, Midnight EST :flame:


I need at least 30 @ the $15 to be able to place to order to get the deal, but if I hit 40 I can drop the price down to $12. I'm cross posting this everywhere, so here's to hoping!

For every preorder, I'm going to draw a little picture on the interior title page of whatever character you desire & write a blurb or something (To so and so), and all books will be signed. Just specify in the email who you would like me to draw and who you want the book made out to, and I'll do it! Like, Aubrey dancing, or Perth drinking or something. Something simple. XD

If you're interested, email me the form below at dechanique @ gmail . com. I won't be sending out paypal invoices until Sunday, when I'm sure if I can get the 30 or 40 (so I know what price to charge), but that means I would need payment immediately, since the sale ends July 14th.

For international interest: I'm not quite sure how much shipping will be internationally, but since it's going to be in a flat envelope, probably something like $5. Unfortunately, I can't cover shipping internationally.

Thanks for the watch back gal ^^
Not at all XDD

Drake doesn't hook up with anyone. Namir ends up with this girl, Meezu, she's from the female training academy. Zech is actually a spy working- his mother is a succubus. He opens the gates to Havenfeld and then books it. He ends up participating in the final battle, him and Al duke it out and Al wins. When he kills him, he is so distraught that he unleashing the God spirit residing inside him and everyone is like holy shit we were picking the wrong people.

It's all because Raziel's prediction mirror is cracked. I blame it on him.

Lol wow, that's pretty epic! And whyyyyy doesn't Drake hook up with anyone? XD Gosh I wish I could have seen the last of it drawn out :O sounds like pure win. Oh well, I think I can be alright with just hearing the last of it cause.. that really DOES appease my curiosity. Like closing a window that was stuck open for a long time or something XD! Thank you <3!

I just lost interest, plus I wasn't satisfied with the art and the story, there were too many things I wanted to change. :( I might redo it at some point, but I'm really invested in Macchina right now and am quite excited to see where it goes!
