• Inside44 is a 544-page sci-fi graphic novel and art book — a museum of original vehicles, characters, machines, and worldbuilding. Built across 10 years, it blends story, design, and soul into one unforgettable journey.

  • Every part of Inside44 — from story and concept art to 3D models, website, marketing, and the full documentary — was made by a single creator: Darko Markovic, also known as DarMar. No team. No company. One vision, start to finish.

  • Absolutely. This is not just a book — it’s a sci-fi museum in print, crafted over 10 years by a single creator. From story to concept art, every part of Inside44 was written, designed, illustrated, and produced independently.
    It’s limited, hand-checked, and made to last for decades.

  • Inside44 is a 544-page, nearly 3kg (6.6 lbs) premium collector’s edition.

    The price reflects both the quality of the product and global shipping costs, which vary by region.

    I created 2 flat-rate tiers to make it as fair as possible for everyone, regardless of location.

  • The project began in 2015 and was completed in 2025. It took a full decade of work, creativity, and sacrifice to bring Inside44 to life.

  • Inside44 is deeply personal. It's rooted in real-life struggle, Serbia, Belgrade, resilience, and Type 1 diabetes, which the creator has lived with since age 13. It's about defying odds, using pain as fuel, and building something extraordinary from a place the world often overlooks — Serbia.

  • Inside44 is a 544-page journey through a fully developed sci-fi universe—built over 10 years by one creator. Packed with story, design, world-building, and layered detail, it takes over 3 days to fully explore.

    Let’s break it down:
    $235.44 ÷ 544 pages ~ $0.44 per page
    That’s less than the cost of a single art print—and here you get hundreds, plus original lore, story, and process.

    Digital edition:
    $44.44 ÷ 544 = $0.08 per page

    This isn’t just a book.
    It’s a collector’s edition. A premium experience.
    A decade of work—delivered to you.

    Note:
    The full price is $235.44 for most countries ($199.44 + $35 shipping),
    but USA, EU, UK, and Canada get free shipping, so they pay only $199.44.

    • Inside44 Vehicles and Machines
      A visual deep dive into the design, function, and story of the machines, robots, and vehicles — featuring 3D models, concept sketches, cutaways, and blueprints.

  • No. Inside44 is 100% human-made. Many artists were tempted by shortcuts, but this universe was built with heart, soul, and craft — not prompts. The creator resisted the AI wave to keep the humanity visible in every brushstroke.

  • Yes. DarMar is available for select high-end concept design projects. He specializes in vehicles, robotics, sci-fi, and worldbuilding. www.designedbydarmar.com

    With a career spanning award-winning concept design and the creation of Inside44—a decade-long sci-fi universe—Darko brings a rare, experience-driven perspective. His journey is filled with raw, untold stories that go beyond inspiration. He breaks down the process, showing how to turn setbacks into strengths and how to build lasting creative legacies even when the odds are against you.

  • I created the Inside44 documentary because working solo on a project for over a decade is an achievement in itself. The 1h25min film takes you through the full journey of Inside44 from 2015 to 2025 — showing every major milestone and giving deeper context to the world behind the book.

    👉 Watch the full documentary 14 July 2026 directly on the main page at https://youtu.be/p3lRrb9reXU

    Highly recommended before (or after) diving into the book.
