Hey so im making a Doll Eye Zine
Hi! I came to announce to everyone about a project that i’m starting up. An official Doll eye fan magazine! I’ll be copy and pasting what I’ve already written in sleepykinq’s server: This fan zine would feature at least 2 pages of well illustrated fan art, 1 page full of fan made comic strips in the same vein as Sunday comics and the other 7 pages (the zine would be ten pages thick) would be in depth analytical articles and theoretical essays on the Doll Eye universe, and the characters that live in it (in simple terms this would be “meta” and “headcanons,” respectively)
-The zine is going to have 20 physical copies. All free, the only thing ppl pay for is shipping. I’d feel bad if i made a profit from someone else’s idea like that. Especially a smaller artist like Skrill
-The zine is going to be 10 pages long. The physical copy 12 pages but that’s only because the printer I’ve chosen has to go by 4’s . The last two pages are going to feature credits on one page and maybe just a blank page for the other
-People submit their written work, fan art, and small comic strips. Whatever is left over would be used in the next issue if it’s good enough along with fresher/newer material
-The zine would also be hosted online for free. That way people who cant afford to pay for shipping or cant have a physical copy for some reason can still have a chance to read it.
Really the physical copy will have a small, one time print run of 20 copies. I’m only doing it for the novelty, like what people in fandoms did back in the day when not a lot of people had easy access to the internet like how we do now. “Sounds like fun! How do i join?” People who would like to participate would first DM me on discord or here on tumblr, where we would discuss what they would contribute and then be invited to join the development server for further discussion. Currently i have:
-Three 1-4 panel comic slots open -3 written article slots open “I Found out about this a bit too late and i still wanna join in.”/ “I don’t think i could conform to a deadline, how could i still contribute?” I’d love to receive fan art submissions! This magazine would need lots of pretty illustrations, so if you want to contribute that way, don’t be afraid to submit it here! More information will be added soon about this project, so stay tuned!
