THE 2025 SKETCHBOOK CROWDFUNDER IS OFFICIALLY CLOSED!
If you have not received tracking for your project yet, please check your email/spam for an email from [email protected]. We have 14 orders that are currently either awaiting final payment, simply need a shipping address. We had approximately $2,500 in failed pledges so those orders have been canceled.
THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO SUPPORTED THE LAUNCH!
We NOW LIVE with Steve's new "How to Draw: Drawing Essentials from a Pro", and have raised nearly $17,000 between the campaigns currently running on both Kickstarter and Backerkit!
REMINDER: THIS IS AN ALL NEW BOOK, NOT A REPRINT
Join in the fun, and don't forget to grab the exclusive print set before they're gone.
We've officially completed the shipping for our 2025 Art of Steve Rude book! If you haven't received a shipping notification you're in one of these catagories:
(1) PAY OVER TIME
If you chose to pay over time your final split payment is next week. At that time you will need to complete your checkout including paying for shipping. We will email you around May 1st so please watch your inbox.
(2) INTERNATIONAL - SHIPPING DUE
If you are International we have gone over all the orders and emailed you options for final shipping due.
(3) CHECKOUT NEVER COMPLETED
If you never completed checkout then you probably have a balance due or we need your shipping address. If you're in this group we've sent you at least 3 emails. We will hold your order for 90 days then restock it.
THIS STARTED AS A REPRINT, BUT IT'S BECOMING IT'S OWN BOOK!
If you already have the "How to Draw the Animated Nexus" this new book will be all new! Launching on Free Comic Book Day, first weekend backers will not only receive a FREE COMIC BOOK (*add-on), but also have the opportunity to purchase a set of exclusive prints from livestreams sketches done on Free Comic Book Day!
Books arrived Monday and we've been working tirelessly to count, sign, and bag all presale orders, and we finished the last of the bagging yesterday!
I have to say the hardcovers look AMAZING! It cost us over $5,000 extra to print them plus $2,500 just for the tip in plate, but it was worth it! The Wonder Woman signature plate looks amazing!
Shipping Starts TOMORROW!
Get ready to receive your books! We'll begin shipping them out tomorrow, so keep an eye on your mailboxes.
Important: Update Your Address ASAP!

Anyone else having issues with the link to get the digital download? My biggest frustration is the confusion from Kickstarter to Backerkit to Discord. I. can't keep up with all the "social media" stuff. I just want simple and straight forward. I backed the book. Maybe I don't get the digital download but then why get the email?
