STATUS || PACKAGES DELIVERED | Avaliable Copies | Discord | Carrd | LinkTree
If you missed out on getting yourself a copy here are some artists that have some available in their shops! Support the artists and get yourself a copy before they run out!
Hey everyone. Once again thank you so much for your support! As the final things are being delivered, however, we are sad to inform that this shall be the last volume of the Shibari Zine (at least by us).
While we enjoy this project and everything it has created, it has also led to much emotional and physical stress, as well as financial strain.
While we make sure that every artist and backer receives what they deserve, in the end it has led to us having to put up our own personal money from time to time to make up for any and all other small things that would be needed to make the project successful otherwise. (shipping disparities, marketing, etc.)
If the KS goal is too high then it wouldn’t have been fulfilled, but then it also means that we had absolutely no room for error or unexpected circumstances whatsoever.
We apologize to all who hoped for a third, but it was a passion project and realistically we cannot afford to. Especially with just two people.
If anyone wishes to take over the Shibari project for a third volume, we would not be against it and we will happily help to discuss it. We just can’t anymore ourselves.
We deeply apologize but we also thank you all for your hard work and dedication and support.
Remember to always love, and keep your heads up! May the red threads guide you all to a bright future!
What will happen to the server?
It will still exist as an art hub. However if you wish to take over the project and require to be able to control the server we can discuss giving mod privileges.
What if I want to take over the project?
Then we would be more than happy to hand over the wheel. Just message us and we would discuss over giving you access to the carrd account, and to the basic graphic design files for the project, as well as mod privileges in the server. It can be discussed about getting the social medias as well.
Shipping delays!
We apologize for the delay in shipping of the zines and its merch! Unexpected circumstances have halted the process. However shipping should be done and delivered starting next week! We apologize for the unexpected delay! We appreciate your patience and understanding!
We also apologize for the lack of communication, as there was not much we could do while dealing with said issue. If you have any questions or concerns do not hesitate to ask us!

We did it! We finally reached our goal for the Shibari Zine Volume 2 Kickstarter! We have reached our goal, and with three days to spare! It has been a close call, and we are so eternally grateful to everyone! We thank every supporter, backer, and artist for your patience and aid in helping make this project a reality! Stay tuned as the campaign comes to a close in three days and any incoming updates! Thank You for baring with us these last few days as we pushed for the zine’s funding!
Is there any way to get a copy of the first zine currently? No stress either way, just curious & eager to support!
Currently there are no physical copies of the first zine available that we know of! If we know of any of the artists that have the physical zine in restock, we will make a post and pin it to this blog!
Day 26! So close! So nerve wrecking! The zine itself has up to 60 pages full of beautiful artwork. We thank all of the artists for their hard work, and all of you for supporting the zine!
