Have you been to the Oddcity thread lately? Bringing the luls! Think were in talks of a commemorative print for Roman so we can get that passed as AOTW as well! To be shipper in 2023 though...

Um...isn't this kinda the problem, tho?
It'll be an entirely new design I believe.
This exactly what I wrote in the group:

Hello,
I have read carefully all the comments on the EB thread (even the longest one ;-) )
I realize now that most of you liked my first sketch, and I feel very sad about that. On my side, I had really understood that lots of modifications were highly desirable, and that seeing a lot of characters on the poster was extremely important for you. So, when I started working on the GOOD poster, just after I came back from my band's tour, I directly inked with colors (without a new detailled sketch), in order to save time... and to be able to easily change the composition if needed. I had few negative comments about the composition, but I realize now it may partially have been because you thought I couldn't change the composition of an inked project.

... All this time, there were so much misanderstandings :-/


Here is the solution I suggest:

Most of you don't like the GOOD poster. It seems, most of the criticism is about likeness and colors.
Before I explained my side of the story, Jeffrey offered a partial refund (only the printing and the shipping cost). 7 members chose that option.
I don't wish to work on the line work of the GOOD poster anymore. I have already done the trapping, and I really don't feel like spending time on this poster. I feel that I've done the best I can do to solve the likeness problem. But colors can be modified.

Here's what I offer:

For people who voted to keep their posters, I will re-work the colors of the GOOD poster. I think if I choose colors that fit my style, I hope you will be happier with the results. I have never done a 10 color poster before and honestly think I can achieve a better look with 8 colors.
Printing 8 colors will cost less too.

I also am offering to completely draw a new 24*36 1-or-2 colors LOTR single poster and use my fee to pay for its printing.
I feel frustrated not to have been able to draw my own LOTR poster.
So in September, I will draw this poster without any suggestions from anyone, using with my own artistic style.
The set printing and the new poster printing will occur at the same time. Jeffrey will mail the new poster with your sets ordered. You will receive one new poster for each standard set ordered.

I also suggest that a portion of my fee be added to the 7 who requested partial refunds, making their refund larger.
Anyone who voted for a partial refund may change their mind. If you still wish for a partial refund, there are fixed costs in the whole process, so you can't expect a significant refund with this option. This is why I'm offering a portion of my fee to increase your refund (nonetheless, it will not be 100% refund).
Once the numbers have all been worked out, Jeffrey will facilitate any refunds.
The colors have been changed and have been uploaded to EB. They are awaiting approval.
