Linipik! [ Twitter | Tumblr ]

Hello, I am Lini and I am a storyboard artist! I have created for the Voltron fandom for around two years already, from the very beginning of the show. I love the duality of fluff with the right touch of tragedy and that is what Adashi is to me. Shiro is an amazing character, a responsible leader but who also is figuring life himself. When Adam was announced, I got pretty excited because I hoped he would allow us to see the more human side of Shiro, in contrast with the mature and heroic profile the series gives us most of the time... After Adam's too short appearance, I still wanted to explore their relationship and its big potential anyway, and really, to light up the day of the many Voltron fans who also wanted to see more of them. It has been amazing to see my work has made a lot of people happy, and I cherish the opportunity to share my take on this adorable couple with the world. Hope you enjoy my contribution to this zine.

Possessing an imagination that is admired by many, Lini is well known for her intricately built worlds and comics which never fail to place a smile upon her audience’s faces. Heartwarming and happy wrapped into one, she walks the tightrope between lighthearted humour and emotional intensity without hesitation. There is certainly a calming factor to her artworks, a peaceful aura coupled with small extra surprises she leaves behind to be found, like a mysterious chain on Adam’s neck or the subtle quirk of a brow. We are delighted to have Lini in this Zine and cannot wait to see the happiness she brings to Adam and Shiro!

Hi! My name is Juliana, I'm 21 and I'm from Brazil. Adam and Shiro are a huge deal to me and to many people who are fans of the show, cause how could it not be? I can't even begin to explain how important it is to have two men loving each other in a show like VLD. A couple who have had an established  relationship, a couple who fights and supported each other. Just a regular couple, indeed. We need to see more of that out there, and that's why I love them very much. It's an honour to be part of this zine to celebrate them!

Pulling together different worlds of art, Juli’s art is soft yet radiant - muted tones supported by occasional slithers of bright colour packed into style holding elements of watercolour and chalk. Her effective use of colour is one of many things which reflect her mastery in designing backgrounds which compliment her characters; simplicity allows characters to shine whilst complexity speaks a million words about their situation. The true magic lies in the natural ease in how she draws, for she weaves threads of the story into every stroke effortlessly. Awe-inspiring and dedicated, it is an absolute pleasure for us to be working alongside Juli in this Zine!

NUI! [ Twitter | Tumblr ]

HI im NUI! I'm in love when I first saw Adam...he's so beautiful and I can't help but thinking about how to make him happy and get together with Shiro. Both of them deserve each other and lots of love. Carrie Fisher once said "Take your broken heart, make it into art." these words always remind me to draw something to bring happiness to this world. So I'm really glad to have this opportunity to be one of the fanzine :D

Whether sketching or using clean cut lines, Nui’s works are easily recognisable with her penchant for drawing simplistic, yet beautiful every day scenes. Bringing her audience into the daily life of Adam and Shiro, she picks colours that are effective and easy on the eye - natural with occasional dashes of darkening blush. With a small colour palette and delicately laid out lines, she hides an incredible skill for anatomy and shading. We are delighted to have Nui accompanying us for this zine and look forward to seeing which part of Adam and Shiro’s lives she opens the door to!

Shevoj | Cheese! [ Twitter | Tumblr ]

Hello there! My name is Cheese, better known as Shevoj, I guess some of you may know that recently I’ve been falling into Adashi SO CRAZILY since Adam has appeared into this world. Ahhh, he’s an angel that came from heaven! ... And then went back to heaven again.

It was too painful to believe, so I’ve started to use my blood and tears to draw for Adashi. I wish for them to have their happily ever after in my AUs.

Bless Adashi and love them forever!

Constantly evolving and looking to improve, Cheese inks pure imagination onto pages to give her audience a window into her world. Despite her humble nature, her art reflects her undeniable prowess - there is a quiet confidence in every stroke she makes, each mark working to transform the ordinary into the inspiring. From scenes that prompt heartache to moments of quiet confession, she can recreate them with ease through an array of styles, splashes of colour and chosen words. Eliciting excitement and awe, we believe this Zine adventure can only be made better with Cheese on board the team!

iparwing! [ Twitter | Tumblr ]

Hello! My name is Meghan, I'm 21, and I'm just your friendly neighborhood fan artist! I love drawing fan art for the books, games, shows, and movies that inspire me! I'm also incredibly indebted to music, since most of my work usually revolves around a song to capture another side of the story. 

I’ve been making Voltron works since the very beginning of the show (If you dig deep enough, you can find some relics in the archives, but please, spare yourselves!) Anyways, Shiro was, has been, and always will be my favorite character. His story and his character are so incredibly inspiring and heart wrenchingly bitter sweet, and I’m so proud of where he is and how far he’s come (plus let’s be real, I’m a sucker for angst). At this point in my life, and with my own personal experiences, I related with Adam and Shiro’s relationship a lot, so it wasn’t hard to grow to appreciate them for what they were. The wonderful thing about their relationship and how it was represented is that there is so much room to be creative, and I’m so excited to be participating in this zine to relay their past! After all, we all need someone to make us into the person we are today, who can thrust us into a type of greatness we never knew we were capable of. 

Bright like the glow of sunshine, Meg’s artwork are a delightful balance between elegant and powerful. Vibrant colours enchant her audience as she strategically places light accents and dark outlines, giving impact to her dynamic poses; the clothing flows and settles on characters, the charming eyes of her characters holding spirit and the life-like movement created even in stillness, supported by the lightness of her brushstrokes. Hidden amongst the beautiful creations is her attention to detail - freckles, scales and white fluttering dots are the finishing touches. Etching her heart into her drawings, we are ecstatic to have Meg with us!

Ashes! [ Twitter | Ao3 | Tumblr ] - Warning ; blogs contain NSFW.

Heyo I'm Ashes! I have been an avid member of the Voltron fandom since season 1 but really became active in events during season 4! I've participated in a various collection of zines, bangs and exchanges and I'm always excited to be a part of a new event! I'm an artist that moonlights as a writer and I enjoy storytelling with my entire heart. Shiro and Adam's relationship means many things to me as an individual, and it holds a place near and dear to me. I am excited to participate in a project putting their love in the spotlight. I can't wait to explore every aspect of it, the hurt, the happiness, the loss, and everything else that comes with the ride.

Commanding attention in both art and writing, Ashes’ works are a beauty of their own kind; dynamic and detailed, often leaving people wanting more. With a handful of words, she is able to breathe new life into characters, recreating the world around them with moments of action-filled intensity and breathtaking descriptions. Hiding a fiery energy to it, her scenes envelop those who read it as everything is constructed with a realistic touch. We look forward to having her on board our journey and cannot wait to see what kind of action she dives into!

pearliegrimm! [ Tumblr | Ao3 ]

Hi! I'm Pearlie! If you scour the Adashi AO3 feed, you might have seen my darling story floating about. I'm a seventeen year old girl from Australia that absolutely adores creating fan content and I look forward to being a part of this!! I enjoy writing for Shiro and Adam because their dynamic is so hilariously ambiguous that it can be interpreted in nearly any form. I enjoy the creative license it's leased me and the opportunity for growth it has lent me.

Masterfully crafted plot lines and a narration style which enthrals all is merely the first chapter to understanding Pearlie’s writing. Layered with a balanced blend of casual speech, insightful thoughts and descriptive language, she unknowingly snatches her audience’s breath and hearts away through the emotions she evokes. Lulling readers into a false sense of security, her writing can give both hope and despair, leaving a trail of desire for the progression that comes with the next update. Although we may be kept in waiting for a gorgeous story, we are in for a treat with Pearlie’s storytelling skills in this Zine!

CaffeinatedFlumadiddle! [ Tumblr | Ao3 ]

Hi everyone! I’m CaffeinatedFlumadiddle aka certified mess and sometimes I write things too. I started writing for Voltron right before Adam was introduced and from that point on my stories have veered towards him. Adashi is definitely one of my top ships just because there are so many ways to interpret both the characters and their relationships that really allows us to be creative and take different approaches to how to interpret all the events that take place around them whether it be past, present, or future.

Positively charming and charged with wit, Caffe’s works are well rounded in all areas, lighthearted and humorous as she hides a surprise at every corner. There is a certain liveliness to her narration; she crafts characters that people empathise with, touching scenes embedded into the paced plot line and leads her audience from adventure to adventure without fail. A storyteller at heart, her skill to construct an entire background from the pieces that were left is undeniably remarkable. It is our absolute pleasure to welcome Caffe as the final guest creator to this zine as she builds the future we wish Adam and Shiro can have!
