That’s probably why I’m drawing two images on a single A4 sheet—so they can eventually be folded into a booklet, or—lol, let’s aim higher—a massive tome :)
I hadn't really considered that option yet, but I have a feeling that if this book does get published, it’ll be incredibly expensive. After all, not every print shop would agree to produce a single copy—lol—since there’s only one customer for the book, and that’s you :)

Sort:  

That is very smart. Does it mean all your drawings are perfect and you never make a mess out of it like me?

There is lulu... They only print on command. It might be a good option

At one point, the idea of ​​creating my own series of postage stamps crossed my mind. I approached the printing divisions at main post offices to see if this could be arranged; I was ready to pay for the print run, provided the series would be listed in the stamp catalogs of the countries where they were issued.

However, they all told me that while I could issue a stamp series, it would fall under the "private stamp" category—meaning no inclusion in official catalogs.

Sure, they could be exchanged for cash at face value at the post office, or the post office could sell them, but collectors wouldn't find them interesting.

Essentially, it’s a "vanity project"—a chance to beat your chest and say, "I have my own postage stamp!"

It’s not a bad idea, or perhaps just a way to cure boredom if you have plenty of spare cash and don't know what else to do with it other than amuse yourself this way.

The idea of ​​publishing my drawings that you mentioned reminds me of something—lol: I’d keep one copy, give a couple to distant relatives, and sell one to you—the potential client who showed interest, lol.

It’s all just a game, not a real business. But speaking of real business: if you’re the type of person who believes they can sell anything to anyone, you could try selling my drawings as my art manager... how does that sound? :)

And yes, as I’ve said, I’m not perfect at anything—including drawing—but I’ve never crumpled up a single sheet of paper in all this time... I hate wasting such valuable cellulose, lol. Instead, I try to mask any mistakes right there on the same sheet.
