objectheadzine

I’m making a for-fun, non-profit zine featuring object heads! Once completed, it will be put up as a free-to-download pdf. Those who participate, however, will receive a physical copy of the zine (paid out of my own pocket) shipping included!

What I Need:
Artists who’ll contribute object head illustrations to this free zine!

Specifically, I’m looking for:

  • Illustration-quality works in either digital or traditional mediums. Both colour and b/w acceptable; background required. *BG can be as simple as a pattern or colour block!
  • 6”x9”, 300 DPI illustrations with a 1/8th inch bleed (FINAL DIMENSIONS SHOULD BE 6.25” x 9.25”) You may work in CMYK or RGB format, but understand that saturated colours may fade in print. «template here»
  • For consistency’s sake, object heads are defined by literal objects, geometry, and abstract things (no headless people though). No animal heads unless it’s taxidermy. Body part heads are fine. Keep faces to a minimum (You can have eye(s) or you can have mouth(s) but don’t have both in a humanoid arrangement.)
  • As a note, this will be an all original character collection - no fanart!

How to apply:
I plan to print physical copies for the participants using my own money, so slots are limited! I’ve already picked 10 out of 30 participants (shown here), leaving 20 slots open for applicants.

To apply, please submit:

  • Examples of your work (art blog/tag, homepage, whatever)
  • A list of the object heads you’d like to draw
  • The name you want me to credit you under
  • The website you want linked on your credits page
  • (Optional) The email you want displayed on your credit page

Send this information and/or if you have any questions to objectheadzine@hotmail(.)com with the subject “Objecthead Application”

The deadline to submit your application is December 7th, 2014.
