~~NOTE: I have not yet received my proof copy. Since this planner is not cheap I recommend to all but the most impatient that they wait until they hear from me that it came out OK!~~ - Got mine! Scroll down for post with pictures. It looks good

It's here! Even at-cost it is not cheap, but it's here! You can now purchase the 2012 Fan Art Calendar at Lulu.com:

Yeah, you did it! Woooo!
I am so torn whether I should get one right away or not....
It's not cheap, but definitely within the range in that I thought it would be. Hopefully I can get myself to wait for your word on the quality.
Especially as I am planning to order not just for myself but also for a couple of friends who are absolutely taken with the great art in the calendar.

This is so exciting! I was basically expecting that price as well so I'm not going to say it's "expensive", but I would like to know the quality before I plop the money done even though I want it so very bad XD

Can't wait to hear how it looks from the printers!

Tevokkia · « **Reply #3 on:** January 11, 2012, 05:31:03 PM »

Yeah, that's about what I thought it would end up being when I was looking around at printers a few months ago.

I'll wait on your word about the quality ... although I'll probably even wait for all three of them to be out and pick them up at one time (with a little slice of my tax return).

Foxeye · « **Reply #4 on:** January 14, 2012, 12:51:31 PM »

Woohoo, it came!

And I"m delighted to say it looks very lovely. The paper is fairly thick and smooth, so no excessive bleed-thru of art onto grid or vice versa, and the colors are rich. It's a smidge towards the red spectrum, but that's better than being towards the green or blue, in my opinion. Just means skin tones are warmer (and my Ember looks, once again, radioactive, heh). Also tickled that the extra margins I added to compensate for the spiral binding are just about perfect...at least on my copy. No idea how consistent their production processes are.

Here's a few photos I snapped:

Aww, it looks awesome and there's my cutie-pie Ekuar. So, when can we order them?

Maggie · « **Reply #6 on:** January 14, 2012, 12:58:30 PM »

Uh duh...I see the post up top...I'm off to buy a copy.

Windrider · « **Reply #7 on:** January 14, 2012, 01:06:25 PM »

OOoo yeah! Good job Foxy! You rock!

I'll probably wait to buy all three at once, one set for me and then another set to send as a gift from us to Wendy.

Yay!

Oh... someone needs to have Richard post the link to Lulu on his Facebook page. There were a few on there wondering where they could buy it when we posted the link to the online version.

Well... off to post the info on EQ.com - not that anyone there seems all that interested. $:-\$

Foxeye · « **Reply #8 on:** January 14, 2012, 01:12:55 PM »

I just sent Richard an email, so assuming he's not loopy on pain meds from his knee surgery, he'll hopefully post it soon.

Windrider · « **Reply #9 on:** January 14, 2012, 01:13:09 PM »

Oh.. and if the printing is shifted slightly to the red, then my already somewhat orange-skinned Skywise probably looks like the Palace gave him a sun burn. So he will go quite well with your radioactive Ember. LOL

I just bought 2 2012 calendars and man it broke the bank...haha. Why oh why do I have elves in every calendar.

Foxeye · « **Reply #11 on:** January 14, 2012, 01:17:47 PM »

Wow...yeah...can't stop flipping through it. Need to get myself an extra...one to use as a planner and one to just save (and get signed if I ever meet any of you!).

Do you want some moola to help pay for the calendars for Wendy? They aren't cheap you know...haha.

Treefox · « **Reply #13 on:** January 14, 2012, 01:33:50 PM »

Oh yay! Thanks so much for the picture! Haha, I also wonder what Chitter will look like even more red... well, maybe it gets her closer to the "squirrel-girl" image.
And I will definitely get two as well.
Off to inform everyone who was interested in buying one what it looks like!

Foxeye · « **Reply #14 on:** January 14, 2012, 01:40:19 PM »

Yeah, your Chitter is one of the ones that glows a bit.

Tevokkia · « **Reply #15 on:** January 14, 2012, 07:11:00 PM »

Ooh, I've got Greywolf rather on the orange side as well ... I'm sure he's prone to sunburn though, and he's certainly outside enough. XD

Can't wait to order mine! And I don't even USE planners. ^.^

branchscamper · « **Reply #16 on:** January 14, 2012, 11:13:50 PM »

Looks pretty! I will definitely be ordering all three when they come out XD There goes any money I was saving lol

silentleaf · « **Reply #17 on:** January 15, 2012, 07:10:17 PM »

Oh i bet Rayek is a kidney bean red! haha! It looks sooo good! i cant wait to see it in person!

Treefox · « **Reply #18 on:** January 16, 2012, 12:06:52 AM »

I got to admit that I ordered the planners yesterday. As I really do use planners, I didn't want to wait until they all come out. I want to use it as soon as possible.
But I have to say that shipping is also not cheap... it's good that I can share the cost with a couple of people.

Afke · « **Reply #19 on:** January 16, 2012, 10:38:13 AM »

Oooooh, it looks mighty fine. It may be too expensive for me, but once I've seen those other two, I might just order them all three, ooooooh... Just too lovely!

Czarine · « **Reply #20 on:** January 16, 2012, 12:03:48 PM »

Wow! That looks awesome! Now I wish I had money to invest... Haha, maybe when all of them are out!

Foxeye · « **Reply #21 on:** January 20, 2012, 04:34:43 PM »

Just a quick update; I got several more copies for friends/family, and it looks like the production quality (colors, margins, etc) is pretty consistent.

Maggie · « **Reply #22 on:** January 20, 2012, 05:05:31 PM »

I received my 2012 planner in the mail today and it's awesome.

There is something about holding it in your hand that makes it even better, I'm so proud of all of us and I think if you haven’t bought a copy for yourself you should, this is the kind of thing to save to show the grandchildren.

Well maybe not November 4th to 10th, you should probably skip that week, as there is some material that is rated N for naughty bits.

Obi-Rak Kaeliri · « **Reply #23 on:** January 20, 2012, 05:52:40 PM »

Hey! My birthday! November the 4th! There's nothing naughty happening on my birthday.

Hmm, well I think that Teir would have to disagree, you might not be doing anything naughty but he sure is...haha.
