gadzukes Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 (edited) Structurally really nice. Spine is nice with no splitting. Cover is sturdy at the staples, CF is well attached. Some sun-shadow on the back upper left and back lower right. Just.... the ink doodles How high can this go with the ink doodles and...... any advice on the ink doodles (I guess that's a question for CCS).

candygramformongo Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 Killer book! So sorry about the ink doodles. I'm still learning how that affects grade because I don't have examples of graded books with marks on them. My estimate for this would be a 2.0.

grendelbo Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 3.0/3.5 The writing/doodling shouldn't matter at this range. As for removing it, I'm guessing the ink is old and it'd be very hard to clean it up; likely impossible without a resto label. Thanks for posting.

I’m at 2.5 with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post gadzukes Posted April 26, 2022 Author Popular Post Share Posted April 26, 2022 (edited) So....I decided to try to make the book look better by scraping in the white areas. Anywhere you still see ink in the white areas it's because the ink bled thru the cover to the inside. Some of you might think that is sacrilege but it's my comic and I wanted it to look a little better. I discovered some of the ink doodles were actually covering "white flaws" so I was concerned I would get a CT hit and a purple label. Nope. It's coming back as a 3.5 Edited April 26, 2022 by gadzukes Point Five, Galen130, grendelbo and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
