Project Update: Survey Options Ending Tonight


 

SNEEK PEEK INSIDE THE 2025 SKETCHBOOK...


FREE ALICE PRINT AND OPEN OPTIONS ENDS TONIGHT!

 
Just a friendly reminder that today is the LAST DAY to complete your survey and still receive the free Alice in Wonderland cover print and unlimited goodies! Don't miss out on this exclusive reward.

For those of you who pledged for a hardcover edition, we have some exciting updates!

We're thrilled to announce that the signature page for the hardcovers went to the printer today! You can see the finished signature page attached to this email. We've opted for a premium printing on 21 mil Entrada Rag, which will really make the signatures pop.

Even more exciting, we're offering a limited number of remarque sketches in the hardcover books! We'll be filming Steve creating these unique sketches, so keep an eye out for those videos.

This is our first hardcover sketchbook since 2013, and we're pulling out all the stops to make it something special. We've invested in higher-quality binding and printing, and we truly hope the extra expense will be worth it for you, our backers. We think you'll love the final product! 

  • If you haven't ordered yet: https://2025-skb.backerkit.com/hosted_preorders - If you would like a remarque in your hardcover please let us know.  After today if we have any leftover we will open them up to anyone with a hardcover or wanting to upgrade.

  • If you haven't completed your survey: https://2025-skb.backerkit.com/ - we've had a few requests to upgrade to the hardcover.  If you would like to please let us know and we're happy to accommodate you.

Thanks again for your incredible support!

Best,

WIth the complete understanding that posting an exact date isn't recommended, I'm still curious if there is a ballpark idea of when this book will ship.

Project Update: Test Survey is LIVE! We Need Your Feedback!


Hey Awesome Backers,

Great News! The Test Survey is now LIVE for a select group of backers! You've been chosen to get early access and help us ensure everything is perfect before the full survey launch.

Inside the Test Survey:

  • Review Your Pledge Items: Your rewards are pre-loaded in your cart! Please carefully review and confirm all items are correct, including quantities. Let us know immediately if anything is missing. Important Note: There is a known visual glitch showing two bookplate items in some orders. Backerkit is resolving this display issue, and you will only be charged correctly for one. Please check your order summary for accurate charges.
  • Limited Remarque Offer: For Hardcover Book backers, Steve is offering a limited number of unique sketches (remarques) for an additional $100. You'll find this option in the survey. (Hardcover books only. Limited quantity available).

Important: This is a Test Survey! 

This survey is a real checkout system, but it's currently released to a small test group only. We need your help to ensure everything is perfect before the full launch. Please carefully review every detail and let us know if you spot any issues – typos, incorrect costs, or anything unexpected. Your feedback is critical to a successful full survey release.

Surveys for Everyone Else: 

If you're not in this test group, don't worry! The full survey release for all backers is planned for tomorrow. Launching in stages helps us catch and fix any issues early, ensuring a smoother experience for everyone.

🎁 Bonus Alert: FREE Alice in Wonderland Print! 🎁 

As a thank you for being early testers, backers who complete their survey by the end of October 18th will receive a FREE and beautiful Alice in Wonderland print! Complete your survey promptly to claim your bonus print!

Payment Details:

  • Credit Cards: Will be charged later (closer to shipping).
  • PayPal: Charged immediately.

Shipping Update: 

Still aiming for early April shipping! (Pending final approvals).
We are incredibly excited to bring this project to life and deliver your rewards. Your feedback is invaluable!

Best,

The Rude Dude Team

After speaking with the printer, a possible solution is changing the page count to 168 and we can afford to do that page count across all editions.
