what are we looking like for items? logbook, charms, pins, stickers.. what’s the line up looking like :33 LOVE THIS IDEA AND 100% INTERESTED
(Question received on Instagram)
Our merch list will be finalized after we've accepted our merch artists! But we'll have the standard zine merch such as prints, stickers, charms, and a pin!
I just read your info doc and I wanted to clarify something: artists will create the Spidersonas and writers will have to write about the artists' Spidersonas, the writers won't participate in the creation of the Spidersonas themselves, is that right?
It’s basically like a reverse bang, where writers are writing something based on the design that artists have. Artists are encouraged to do spot art or page art that is related to the fic. Writers can definitely have inputs/collab more if the artists want but yes, in this case, writers are basing their writing more so on the art than coming up with the design/characters themselves. However, we hope that everyone will collab and come up with something really cool! Since we're combining two worlds together, there's still going to be a lot of room for writers to explore exactly how the spidersona will come to life in a story and what the world will look like!
as the zine is now confirmed physical, will artists be provided their own bundles?
All contributors will be guaranteed at least the digital version of the zine. If sales allow, the goal is to compensate contributors with the zine book, any physical merch, and shipping. However, as this is dependent on sales, any physical items and shipping compensation is not guaranteed.
how many artists will be accepted?
Our contributor numbers will depend on the results of our interest check!
The idea is cool so why would you limit the zine to a digital zine?
Depending on our interest check we might go physical, but for now we’re focused on a digital zine, as stated in the FAQ section of our carrd.
Hello! Can you please put a flash warning on your graphics next time, if they’re like the most recent one? I’d appreciate it, thank you!
Of course! Apologies for not doing it this time and we'll definitely put it next time. Thank you for letting us know. ❤️
