Some Trouble at Canadian Customs for Marty's Moly
Wanted to share this experience with you all in case you're also sending things internationally, or at least, into Canada.
I've just picked up Marty's sketchbook at the post office and had to pay a customs fine of $30.97 because the little green sheet on the front says the book is value $500, which I suspect is a typo simply missing a decimal point. I'm going to argue that angle anyway and send the paperwork and receipt in too the border agency to try and get the charge refunded.
While the art is certainly irreplaceable, customs views the value as my paying for something as a purchase, not as an insurance thing, so they've charged me GST & PST, the two kinds of taxes here.
Just wanted to let you all know so that for future posts you might have into Canada, it's generally best to either cite a low value or mark the item "gift - zero value" then insure it separately as a gift "x" value or get a tracking number for it. Tracking numbers are often enough.
Any rate, the Moly is here safe and is an incredible thing to behold, every contribution in there so far is stunning!

Passing on Marty's book
Okay....finally done. Could have puttered away at this for another 3 months.....but that isn't the point right? This is a collaborative thing. This is an awesome book and I hate to see it go. So here is my entry.
Here is the book as a whole.
Once again, I want to thank everyone for the opportunity.
This is a rad group!

Zombie Giant
Got this book just before taking off to thailand for two weeks, then had a couple weeks of getting back into the swing of things, and more or less not making progress, so sat myself down and got some stuff going finally.
And this is what happened. Some of it a bit more grim than I expected it. A lil' more work in this book, then I'll pass it on ( I think this one's almost through everyone? )
Just out of curiosity, any interest on a role-call on who's got who's book right now?
