Hello! I was planning on applying as a page artist until I saw the indication "no graphic design" for backgrounds. I'm not sure where's the limit: Is it possible to have an explanation of what you consider graphic design backgrounds that are not accepted? (I see 1. simple shapes or 2. repeated patterns or intricate shapes (like in 1920s f.e.) or 3. assets like flowers, foliage, architectural elements, frames like a Mucha lithography... to say I don't know where would be the limit)

We would like to see examples of your illustrated backgrounds, as the expected contribution for the zine is a piece with an illustrated background. Here are some elaborations that we hope will help you:

  • We would prefer not to see solid color or simple shapes as the background for pieces meant to showcase your backgrounds.
  • Premade assets are acceptable, but should not dominate your work.
  • No in-game screenshots.
