If it gets to complicated, I could offer an alternative shipping address in TX, USA.I would pick up the book from there in July.

I've received an e-mail recently, that is suppose to be from RenderHub, but you know, you have to be careful nowadays, because of fishing and scam mails.
Can anybody tell me if this mail is real?
Did anybody get similar mails?
Can any official Renderhub person confirm this mail?
thank youForum Image

Is "artists@renderhub.com" the real RenderHub e-mail sender?

I also received that exact same email  from "artists@renderhub.com".

When I get an Email from renderhub it is usually from the "support@renderhub.com"  adress.

Yes, the owner sent that email. 
I can confirm the books exist and the owner would like to send a copy to the featured artists. 
The owner told me he had a difficult time narrowing it down to 100, so congratulations on being selected to be included in the book. 

For additional confirmation, here's a picture from the BCON LA event. You can see the books on display at the RenderHub booth.

I received same and thought it was a phishing email.  Perhaps it would have been better to contact the members through their mail in box here to confirm legitimacy.

He set that email address up so he could monitor it and take care of the responses personally.
Sorry for the confusion.

I replied to mine after I checked the origininating email domain and would like to thank Renderhub to reaching out and offering such a rare opportunity to see my work presented like this, I'm super-excited to also see the works of everyone else whose work got featured, I certainly hope that being in the UK doesnt rule me out for receiving it, shipping costs to all the contributors probably isn't cheap.

Your book will still be sent if you're in the UK.

And you're right - international shipping isn't cheap. I helped the owner research the best services to use, and was shocked at the shipping cost to some countries.
Regardless, the owner said it's a small price to pay as a thank-you for your valuable contributions to the RenderHub community.

Congratulations on being featured!
