objectheadzine: The theme of the seventh Object Head Zine is “CELESTIAL BODIES”, dealing with Space and Angels. (Illustration by @kmbrlei)Strum a harp while sitting on moon beams, glide alongside comets and shooting stars, lie across cosmic clouds with the world in your hands - the new Object Head Zine is about to start! The setting doesn’t necessarily need to be heavenly or in outer space but the overall picture should have some relationship to the topic of celestial bodies. This book will feature 25 people I’ve selected, plus 25 open slots available to the public for a total of 50 participants! This year’s zine is a PAID OPPORTUNITY of $100 CAD per page. Participants will be paid as soon as they complete their piece (give or take a week for paypal to transfer funds). There will be a kickstarter (tentivively in October) in order to raise up more money to pay the artists! The 25 pre-selected participants are:Potentialforart | Juliette GMM López | Autumn Haynes | Coey KuhnBlacklimes | Corviday | Derek Hetrick | TheHoleyness | NelnalChan | Nicolas Ky | Thisishannako | Oxboxer | Sfé MonsterChristian Angel | Caoethic+Lenalis | Miru/Inktrashing | CosmicloakLouise Kay Uy (Kalkie) | Kimberly Wang | Dune5and | ShibaraNighthead | Skirtzzz | RouwanThe guidelines are as follows: 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”) Works must be in CMYK, a template will be provided via email if you are selected. Works will be in a vertical format only. 10 slots are open for a 1-4 page comic. A separate portfolio of your comic works must be sent in for consideration. At least one (1) work in progress picture should be sent in with your final illustration/comic. For consistency’s sake, 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.) Original characters only (yours or your friends’). You can include humans/monsters as long as there’s a 1:1 object head to human/monster ratio. This book is for all ages. PG-13 content at the most! Cartoon violence and blood are acceptable, but realistic gore is NOT. Use your common sense. If you’re unsure, run the idea by me. Completed illustrations/comics must be sent as a flattened psd or tiff file. TO APPLY, FILL OUT THE GOOGLE FORM HERE There are only 10 slots for comics available due to page count space so if you apply for a comic space, and you are selected, you may not be picked for comics but instead illustration! If you have any questions about the zine, feel free to send an email to objectheadzine(@)hotmail(.)com. I’ll do my best to reply promptly.
