Calling ALL creators in the Kingdom Hearts fandom! Yes, I’m talking to you, artists, graphic editors, cosplayers, and writers! My dear friend @novallion and I are excited to announce that, in anticipation of KH3′s release in January, we’re kicking off THE TIES THAT BIND: A KINGDOM HEARTS FANZINE!
What’s that? Well, it’s going to be a collaborative zine that focuses on one of Kingdom Hearts’s central themes: friendship! It’s going to be PDF only, and completely free of charge. Artists, editors, and writers of ALL skill-levels are encouraged to participate, and ALL eligible entries that abide by the submission guidelines will be accepted and included in the zine! I hope that people across the fandom will join us in a celebration not only of the game series we all love so much, but of each other. There’s so much passion and talent in this fandom, and I’m so excited to collect it all together and share it with the world! <3
We want to accept the hard work of EVERYONE who submits to us, so please make sure to follow the guidelines below:
Focus on as many characters as you like! Heroes and villains are both fair game. :)
All entries should be SFW, please! If something wouldn’t happen in one of the games, please don’t include it in your piece, no matter what form.
Please, no romantic content, even if it’s fluff! This project seeks to focus on the friendships between the characters in the series. :)
Only one submission per person, please!
In the body of the e-mail, please give:
The name you’d prefer to be credited with
TWO (2) social media handles of your choice
ALL SUBMISSIONS WILL BE DUE by 11:59 EST ON FRIDAY, JANUARY 18! This gives everyone about two months to create their pieces for the zine. :> (The sooner you turn your work into us, the better, though!)
Please follow the general submission guidelines above!
ALL artwork must be on a 6 x 4 inch canvas at 300 dpi! No bigger. No smaller. For formatting purposes, please make sure your canvas is this size.
Pieces can be in B&W or color!
Traditional art will gladly be accepted, but please scan it cleanly!
Please follow the general submission guidelines above!
ALL WRITING must not exceed 1.5k words!
Please follow the general submission guidelines above!
As with the artwork, all graphics must be on a 6 x 4 inch canvas at 300 dpi.
These will obviously need to be still images. PNG files are preferred.
(I’ll admit to being a little clueless when it comes to graphic editing, but I’ve seen some truly amazing work from this fandom with still graphics and gifs, and I want to offer all of the editors out there a chance to participate in this project. Please be patient with me! Hahaha!)
Please follow the general submission guidelines above!
All photos must be 6 x 4 inches in high resolution.
The goal is to have this PDF ready to go right before Kingdom Hearts III launches in Japan on January 23 (and before a lot of us probably go radio silent on social media to avoid spoilers)!
I hope that lots of you are able to participate. Feel free to contact me or Nova if you have any questions! Please share this post to spread the word so even more people can join in the celebration! :>
