+1 to $60 being totally reasonable (cheap even) price for 450 page book in color. I (and thousands of people) regularly pay $50-70 for pen and paper RPG books with less page count. And I've paid much, much more than that for niche art books.

Thanks, but it's a last resort. That wouldn't even require a crowdfunding campaign, I just upload the files and that's it.

Since I've spent over 4 years now on this, why not dream higher? I think it's worthy to try to make something cooler, of higher quality and cheaper for everyone.

The book doesn't even have a cover yet, so I might hire an amazing artist as stretch goal or something like that. :)

Could I mention the legendary artist Mark Ferrari for your consideration?

(I know there are hundreds of others, I'm hoping people might reply and compile a favourites list for you ^_^)

I actually already talked with Toni Bratincevic to get an idea of how such job would work. He's my #1 choice. :)
