At the end of nine weeks that would provide 36 drawings for a publication of some sort. I'm still in favour of self publication in keeping with the low impact theme for now.
Format? - Blurb (http://www.blurb.com as an example, because I've seen some of their products and they're not bad) - smallest format is 7in square (18cm) - is quite a nice size for such a project - we could put out for about £11 plus p&p and is marketed online through their shop (see below). That gives the option of 7x7 or 7x14 inches to play within. Again, this is just a basic example. Next format up is a choice of landscape or portait versions of 10x8ins (20x25cm) - prices starting at £10.95 for softbound 20-40- pages.

It may/most likely will need pulling together with rewritten prose and some layout adjustments but should give the raw material to put an art based item together quickly for self publication. No great initial outlay - simple profit sharing agreement between the artists. Should be possible to fit it in a busy schedule as a fun diversion and can be marketed through our various websites for starters as perhaps the first of many ???
No I haven't being sniffing mushrooms or anything else, before you ask. This may well be the daftest notion since sliced custard, but I'm willing to give it a go with three or more similarly minded funsters, if they can be found. This isn't set in stone, or even in any of that custard for that matter. Flexibility is my friend. Talk to me, if only to tell me where to take the long walk.
I'll copy this across to the thread in the main pound to try and gather more bodies.
