i chose to do two pieces featuring the fashion of a community of desert-dwelling orcs whose clothing changes with the season.
among the bare branches of a bone-white tree, the orc huddles with her back to the howling winds. behind her, the expanse of jagged desert horizon is obscured by the billowing dust. every now and then, rocks materialize and vanish as blackened teeth protruding from the jaw of the earth. she is still and barely visible, her armor the color of whispered things. she peers silently from her shelter, the searing brightness of her gaze unmatched while the sun remains shrouded in the clouded sky.
the first drops of rain fell the afternoon prior and have persisted since. it seems to those on the ground that they fling themselves from the clouds with joyous abandon, fat drops hurtling through the air to drum a swelling beat on the wet-packed sand of the desert floor. they drench the orange rocks and run down them in sheets, washing them smooth, and pooling in the welcoming hollows of the earth’s musculature. the orc sits astride the rock and tips his head back. the water at his feet reflects his colors back at him, unapologetic in their vibrant exultation. in the fields beyond, every scrub brush, cactus and sleeping wildflower reaches towards the sun and offers thanks in a spray of petals.
Now you have a chance to own the physical zine for yourself, through our limited leftover sales!
Can finally show off the faux product ads I created for @fantasyfashionzine
If you know me you know that I’m a sucker for the romanticized flapper aesthetic; that was the inspiration behind this Seer’s sculpted finger waves and giant boa. I wanted the visuals and the diadem design itself to look sleek and luxurious, but slightly organic and curvy; the sharpness of deco meets the swirls of nouveau.
Bonus close up of the mini-illustration from the Diadem ad, in order to show off my attempt at a vintage-inspired, woodcut look.
An amazing faux ad is just one of the many pieces you can find in our zine. And now you have a chance to own the physical content for yourself through our leftover sales!
We still have the store open if you want to pick up the PDF version of the zine.
Here is some of the amazing content you can find in the zine. And now you have a chance to own the physical content for yourself through our leftover sales!
We have a few remaining zines, and zines with merch bundles. All in good condition! Or you can check out our grab bag if you’d like to have a chance at picking up some our remaining merch.
This is a great opportunity if you missed our preorders! Supplies are limited and once they’re gone, we will not be reprinting.
Hello all! We realize things have been quiet. Covid caused some delays with us being able to send some of the last merch packages out, but this has been resolved and it looks like they have all arrived safely! This means that we are going to proceed with opening our leftover sales this week on August 14th
If you missed our sales before, this will be the perfect time to grab a copy for yourself!
Hello all. Now that most of our zines should have arrived at their destination. We have sent out the PDFs to all those who purchased one. If you did not receive please let us know. Two emails were sent out, as one contained an incorrect link.
For those who supported us on Kofi, the exclusive bonus digital zine was sent out as well. Or if you’d like to receive it for yourself, please support us!
All US merch orders have been sent out and tracking numbers have been mailed. If you didn’t receive a tracking, please check your spam and then contact us.
Due to the Covid situation, we will be delaying sending out international orders at this time and will update everyone once they’ve been sent.
Thank you for bearing with us but our charm has arrived! This means we will be able to start organizing the merch bundles and hopefully ship them out soon.
Our first batch has been sent out! Those who ordered the physical zine, your order is on the way. Tracking numbers will be sent out shortly. If you do not receive an email by tomorrow, please let us know.
They’re here! All of our zines have arrived safely and they look goregous! While we’re still waiting on our charm order to arrive, we hope to start sending out the zine only orders within the week. Thank you to everyone for your support!
And here’s our sticker sheet! The zine is going through some final formatting changes, but we look forward to being able to put everything together and get it shipped out.
An update. We have begun the production process and the first items have arrived. These two prints got goregous! We’ll be sure to continue to update once the rest arrive.
Thankyou everyone for the support. We have removed the physical bundle options from our shop, but you can still continue to support us through buying the PDF version or supporting our Ko-FI for an exclusive digital bonus!
