Hi, I'm concerned about the quality of contributor submissions with the zine being open call. Will there be a selection process after pieces are submitted if some of them don't meet the expectations (unfinished doodle, white backgrounds, etc?) or will they still be included in the final zine?

Hello! While we understand this concern, Blueprint is a project created by fans for fans. It’s a free, celebratory zine meant to commemorate Stray Kids and their achievements over the past 5 years, and contributors are aware of the expectation that they must submit complete and polished pieces. The purpose of this zine is to uplift the community and celebrate together and it would be unfair to have artists work hard on a piece for it to be ultimately excluded based on inexperience.
The Blueprint mod team will be regularly checking-in for progress and offering support so that artists can submit works that they’re proud of. Our job as mods is to meet the artist in the middle and make sure the project moves smoothly. Moreover, our artists are talented and excited to contribute to this project, and it would be a disservice to the community to not showcase the variety of styles and skills that Stays have.
