Whale Bone Grove by Aaron Horkey: Japan Bloodplate Edition



The extremely popular Japan edition of the fast selling Whale Bone Grove print by Aaron Horkey is set for release approximately 12 hours from now. With the first two variants selling out in just a few minutes there's certainly going to be a lot of competition for these, especially with only 45 available from Burlesque (full edition size is 65). There's a lot of confusion on exactly how to order what with the only information given being in the form of some badly-translated Japanese, so here's a small (and hopefully correct) rundown on how to order.

On Tuesday February 19th (tomorrow) at 20:57pm Japan time (that's 11:57am GMT) an e-mail address will appear on the Burlesque of Japan site where the red ???????????? currently appear. As soon as it pops up, you have to send a message to the address given with the following information filled in:

・Amount=
・Your name=
・Address=
・City=
・Country=
・Postal Code=
・Telephone=
・Postage (EMS or Air Printed Matter )=
・Paypal account Email address=
・Special Instructions=


It would be a good idea to work this stuff out and fill it in beforehand so you can get the mail out as quickly as possible. In terms of shipping, EMS is slightly more expensive but offers order tracking and insurance. Total price for the print is 3000 Yen (~£141) plus shipping costs which are given on the Burlesque site. If you're lucky, you will receive a message back with your Paypal invoice.
