We are looking for a wide variety of illustrations. If you are interested in illustrating for us, please send a message of inquiry along with links to some examples.
Illustrations can be any style or media, but should work well when printed in black and white.
We are willing to look at your existing illustrations for use in the zine, but are more interested in custom illustrations that compliment our content specifically.
