I'm definitely buying this! But I want Whit Brachna's speed painting videos. The second part isn't out yet, can that one still be ordered?

[Jason Manley]

The free downloads with the book are of those released as of today. Dec 21.

Thanks a lot too. We have to find ways to support this site and this is one of the ways we are doing it.

[Jasonwclark]

Wow this sounds so glorious. I don't know, maybe its just because I was born in 81, but that MB Cock is still one my favorite designs of all time. Props to whoever came up with it. That painting by Nox is way cool too, I remember really enjoying that one the first time I saw it. I think I'm going to have to put in an order with Santa Claus. My mom has been harassing me for gift ideas anyway, and this one seems way classier than a gift certificate.

Thanks for putting this all together. Very inspiring

[Man Made God]

Oh well, I'll buy the second part later. Throwing in the digital downloads was very cool, I'm really impressed with the value since art books are always so expensive.

[Kamikazebob]

mm I think that special edition is a necessity. As always, if I can give you my money I will. many thanks to the MB crew and whoever else helped put this together.

[PieMonster]

How much more would it cost having it shipped to Europe?

[FranciscoShreds]

This is brilliant! I've already sent the email to pre-order the limited edition.

[Dile_]

this book keeps me awake at night !!!!!!!!!!! I sent a mail, hopefully he replies soon

[Victor B]

Great preview, cant wait to get mine, just have to decide which "edition" to get...

[Natzuur-JK]

Wow, awesome, gotta decide which package. Thanks guys!

[AlexC]

I'm assuming this book will be in stores with the other range of ballistic titles. If the book is purchased instore will a download come with that as well?

[Taj]

What are the payment options?

Anyway, great book, I'm realy impress by the few pages you upload, i can't imagine 200 pages of concept art like that !

[Mark Bot]

that's awesome.
i do hope scooter's email doesn't explode.

thanks for putting it all together!

[jcaffoe]

you post this FOUR DAYS before Christmas?

come on Jason...

[Natzuur-JK]

Just out of curiosity how long will these offers be standing? Obviously the first offer is limited in number, but what about the others, until release date?

[Jason Manley]

It is good until release and these are only available online. Jan 13 I believe. Paypal or credit card. Scooter can assist after you email him.

[Jaku]

E-mail sent.
Jason, I´ve to say that I hate/love you all for becoming me a conceptart.org-massive black yonkie

[Noa K]

so amazing!!

any idea if shipping is availible to israel?
should i ask about it in the e-mail?

[N D Hill]

Hey Jason

I just sent my email to scooter to reserve my copy of the LE. Will there eventually be some kind of online checkout where we can put in our charge info?

On a personal note, I've been waiting forever for you guys to do something like this. This is such an awesome thing you've put together.

[Jason Rainville]

I was about to put myself down for the limited edition, but for me not working right now it's a bit steep. You can bet though that if I had a little more moolah to my name I'd jump all over it.

Signature for me and thanks for the wonderful book

[Texahol]

oooooooh things like this make me wish I had money

[cesmls]

Done!

Ordered Option One.

[PieterV]

DO WANT!

Stupid question but...
Do we need to include stuff like adresses and billing info in the email?

[realitychek]

Sent an order for the LE last night...
Thanks so much for putting something like this together
Oh, and can we expect confirmation e-mails if we've sent off an order?

[Zvuv]

I wish the educational downloads included those soon to be released, as some of us have already bought all the other ones. I'd get the Limited Edition if it included downloads I hadn't already payed for!

Besides that, great offer.

[Devere]

I concur zvuv, but it's still a wicked aeswome offer from a group of artist I have soooooo much respect for. pre-ordered limited edition via e-mail but haven't had a response back as yet, already sent out 2 e-mails. hope it's right e-mail address.

[ManaBurn]

What's a realistic response time, for those of us who have sent e-mails?

I don't want to be bombarding anyone with any unnecessary repeat e-mails if I can help it so an ETA on typical response time would be useful.

[Jason Manley]

thanks everyone...it is xmas break here. We will be in touch with everyone who emails right after the holiday and before the new year. much thanks for the support. really.
