The Campaign for Blood N'Bullets #2 ENDS THIS FRIDAY AT 6PM
That's right folks, we are coming in to the home stretch, only a couple of days left to back the Blood N'Bullets #2 Campaign! We have a couple of stretch goals left that we could achieve with a huge push right now, but, it has already been such an honor to see how many people have already supported us in this. We thank you all so very much, and we have a special event coming up tomorrow night!
CATCH MONTE LIVE ON FACEBOOK TOMORROW NIGHT from 5pm - 6pm MST for a very special "THANK YOU" party
It's BYOB, of course, but join Monte as he raises a glass to you guys in thanks, and as we ALL raise a glass TOGETHER to toast the creation of a NEW chapter in the saga of "Bloody" Mary Masterson and Blackbird. The end of the funding period is just the start, the end of the funding period is point at which we all KNOW that the book will become a reality. Join us as we celebrate this very special milestone for Maverick Arts Studio.
Toasts will be made, questions will be asked, answers will be given, and you'll get the first reveals of some of the projects you can expect from the Maverick Arts Studio "Monteverse" in 2022!

Hello friends!
Just a friendly reminder that the Kickstarter Campaign for Blood N'Bullets #2 ends THIS FRIDAY. If you have not backed yet, make sure to get in before the hammer comes down. If you've had your eye on something in the campaign, and have been waiting, the wait is almost over.
We have a stretch goal that we could reach if we get a big push here at the end, and if we DO reach that 50k funding mark, EVERY backer will recieve a special "Bloody" Mary Masterson embroidered patch! In the first BNB campaign, all the backers received a Blackbird embroidered patch, and this would make a great addition to that growing patch collection! Tell everyone you know, we don't have much time left! - Joshua (for Monte and Maverick Arts Studio)

The Marshal Edition.
A one of one printed edition of Blood N'Bullets #2. It is the RAREST fully printed, production copy of the book. There is only one. This tier was snapped up right at the start of the campaign, but it looks like the backer has changed their order, and now IT IS AVAILABLE AGAIN!
This edition will come with a specialty paper cover (though we haven't quite decided which of all the fancy options we will use)
Only ONE backer can get this reward. It has become available again. 3,2,1...go!
We have reached yet another milestone, and we have something VERY SPECIAL for you!
Upon hitting the 40K funding mark for Blood N'Bullets #2 we have unlocked ANOTHER STRETCH GOAL!
Every backer of a physical item will now receive a NUMBERED, LIMITED EDITION 11x17 PRINT of the awesome MIKE KROME art for the project. That's right, this art is NOT available to buy in ANY TIER. This is ONLY AVAILABLE AS OUR GIFT TO YOU BACKERS for helping us reach this goal!
Thank you all so very much for helping us reach this milestone, and don't forget there's MOORE to come! We still have a couple of more stretch goals to unlock, and if we reach 100k, every backer of a physical item will receive the first ever Maverick Arts Studio Challenge Coin for FREE! We can do it! We still have 9 days left in the campaign! Share out the campaign to your friends, family, neighbors, facebook groups, twitter feeds, telegram channels, bumble profiles, and on NextDoor (and anywhere else you can think of!) With your help, we can make this a record-breaking campaign, friends! Thank you for all of your support!

DeBalfo Color Cover Revealed! 7 DAYS LEFT!

Color Art Reveal / One Week Left!
Hello everybody! Thanks for backing this project and we really value your support! The campaign only has 7 DAYS LEFT, and we have a couple of stretch goals left to achieve. At our next stretch goal of 50k Funding we will be creating a "Bloody" Mary Masterson Patch that will compliment the Blackbird patch from the last campaign, and if we reach 100k in funding we will create the first ever Maverick Arts Studio / Monte Moore Challenge Coin! As with all of the others we have unlocked already, EVERY BACKER of a physical item tier will receive ALL of the stretch goal items that we have released! We are in the home stretch friends, just a week left, we can do this!
There are two tiers that I want to mention real quick, and these are the "Art Director's Special" and the "Arizona Art Experience". For those of you out there that collect original art, these should NOT be missed. These two tiers comprise two of the only commission opportunities for art from Monte Moore for the next foreseeable future. As Maverick Arts Studio grows, and our releases continue, and as Monte's work on licensed properties continues with his work on the Mandalorian fine art series, he simply does not have the opportunity to take on commissions as he once did.
Art Director's Special
The Art Director's Special allows you to be the Art Director for an upcoming cover of a Maverick Arts Publication. You will direct the design of the cover, name the edition, and get to keep the full-color 15 x 20 original art of which YOU directed the creation! This tier ALSO includes a full BONANZA pack which includes the ONLY Sheriff edition left in the campaign, as well as Limited Editions A,B,C,D ALL the RockStar cover and ArtCore cover comics, all the prints, the Heroes edition and all the HoloFoil Editions of Blood N'Bullets #2. The price of this tier represents a substantial discount from the market value of the included items.
Arizona Art Experience
The Arizona Art Experience may very well be the last opportunity for years for a collector to commission a large masterwork from Monte Moore. This tier has, as it's crown gem, a 4 foot commissioned painting from Monte Moore. As Monte works in multiple mediums, this could be almost anything you can imagine, in almost any style. Monte's works SMALLER than this size generally fetch more than ten thousand dollars apiece, here are a couple of Monte's recent works for sale at Kinkade.
The tier price for the Arizona Art Experience ALREADY represents massive savings over the cost of one of Monte's originals, but wait, there's MOORE!
The backer of this tier will also spend an entire day with Monte Moore in Scottsdale, Arizona. Fine Dining Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner will be provided at a selection of great restaurants. A guided tour of Western Spirit: Scottsdale’s Museum of the West and the Scottsdale Arts District will be provided by Monte, as well as an excursion to the Desert Botanical Gardens. This will be a full day of interaction and camaraderie that will cap off with dinner at Steak 44, Monte's favorite restaurant in all of Arizona. This experience will be the spark that guides the creation of this massive four foot fully painted commission by Mr. Moore, the subject and design of which will be entirely up to the backer of this tier.
This tier also includes a selection of Maverick Arts Studio books and prints, all hand selected and signed by Monte Moore.
All Meals, Drinks, Entrance Fees and Ground Transportation ARE INCLUDED in this package, but transportation to/from Scottsdale is the responsibility of the backer.
This is truly a one-of-a-kind experience for one special patron.

Thank you all, once again for all of your support, and we can't wait to bring you MOORE! - Joshua (For Monte / MavArts)

...and don't forget, if we break ALL the records on this campaign, and raise 100K, EVERY BACKER GETS the FIRST EVER MAVERICK ARTS STUDIO / MONTE MOORE CHALLENGE COIN! Some people may think that's impossible, only a dream, but me, I choose to have hope and faith. Share the campaign out to your family, friends and strangers, if we all pull together EVERYONE CAN GET MOORE!
Speaking of sharing and helping, we want to make you fine folks aware of a couple of projects by other creators that we think you might enjoy -
Born of Blood #1 -
How did the Spartans continue throughout history? It begins in 200BC, with Giaris, the future Queen of Sparta! You were introduced to the Spartans in Miss Meow. You learned about their technological abilities in Deathrage. Now... you will find out how it all began! Check out the Kickstarter campaign for Born of Blood #1 from our friends at Merc Magazine. It's a great story, and there are a LOAD of great variants, and with 24 days left on the campaign, you want to get in on it NOW before all the limited editions are sold out! Check out some of the interior art, and the campaign by clicking the pictures below-
A new KILLEROO comic book set in the distant future of the Australian landscape - now a world reminiscent of Cyberpunk and Mad Max. A wall closes off most of Australia after nuclear strikes have made most of the country a wasteland, a wasteland that is now Killeroo's domain! Set 30 years in the future, this is a new chapter in the Killeroo saga - scheduled as a one-shot for now, the series may expand based on popularity with the readers. The art and story look GREAT, and we know the quality because we know the people behind the book. This is a no-brainer, check it out at the links below, and pay special attention to the DELUXE EDITION of the book that includes 16 EXTRA PAGES of additional content, including sketchwork by artist Ryan Vella! Here's some eye candy, click on any of the pictures to go to the Killeroo: Old Man Rufus Project Page
We will be releasing MOORE great art as the campaign progresses, don't miss out! Thank you for all of your wonderful support! - Joshua (for Monte and MavArts)
