#runebound binds

[all-wasbutfrost]

I don’t usually post my binds much because I’m still learning a lot as I go and always picking apart the flaws. 😅 But I made this as a gift for a friend for her birthday. I commissioned @nicht-vobla for the cover and dust jacket art, who was able to take my idea and make it come to life in such an incredible way. The fic is Buy Back the Secrets by @sundiscus / @vinelark (which, if you have not read it, do yourself a favor and read it). Somehow this fic managed to drag me (and another friend, not the one I made this for) into this fandom. 😂

(Reminder that no one should ever buy or sell bound fanfiction. I made this strictly as a gift for a friend. I don’t sell binds or do commissions! This is just a fun little hobby.)

Also might be some spoilers in the typeset shots so beware!

The dust jacket is a clear jacket with vinyl used to create the overlay effect. I tried it a couple different ways, and this was the only one that ended up as clean as I wanted it. Typeset is entirely by me, and book is handbound by me. Art on the end pages is just a screenshot from Gotham Knights. Might add more pics later if I can get my friend to send a couple more of the typeset, particularly the social media stuff.

okay so i can finally show off one bind i made for the holidays for a friend! this is not in this land alone by torakowalski.

this was my first attempt at sewn-on endbands, and i think they came out pretty decent? i also painted the edges, but they weren’t entirely even because of whatever pearlized pigment was in the ink just does not stick like plain ink does. layering the vinyl was a pain because they had different glue-melting temps, so there are some small parts that kinda melted on the gold 😔 BUT other than that, probably one of my more successful vinyl attempts.
