Inspired by things that happened in a D&D campaign I'm playing. A fictional prapaganda about greg the undying... who is simply a desiccated fish the characters bought for reasons.
Inspired by things that happened in a D&D campaign I'm playing. This manual was made with help from the DM, they provided all the raw text and rough sketches and I formatted them into something I hope look educational and immersive. I put the griffon owner's name on the front since I considered this an immersive prop for the game. A little pocket guide for the characters should they need it. I mailed it out to the other players as a momento.
The three covers of my zine series I've been working on. Inspired by things that happen in the D&D Eberron campaign I.m playing with friends. The first two are condensed little moments from the game while the third was me going off the rails and telling a crucial secret about my bard and his backstory. He's from Cyre so if you know, you know. Each of these probably took a year, the third on too two. Not because I was working hard every day on them, but picking away as I had time or when a D&D session really hit me hard. There are still some moments that slipped through my fingers that were so, so amazing, but I just couldnt find a way to express them in the moment. I mailed out copies to the other players in my group as momentos. The third one has the cover done by a very talented and wonderful friend also in the campaign.
I organized this zine with a couple of friends in a discord server. It had very simple rules: we all got two pages to post whaever we wanted as long as it was related to our own characters. I think there were about five of us, so it was very easy to wrangle. These kinds of projects are perfect ways to bounce back if you are the type to get discoraged by being rejected constantly for fanzines. I can't speak from personal experience there, but it's important to remember that you can always MAKE YOUR OWN zines. Don't let anyone stop you.The interior layout I decided for my two pages. I've had these OC since I was about 15, for better or for worse haha I have hundreds of drawings of these guys. I've always felt more drawn to exploring stories through my own characters than through fanworks.
A short erotic zine I made to practise some things and then shared it will a couple close friends. The title reveals what I'm often thinking when people go online then complain about the content that they could have easily avoided. I might have had content warnings on the back of this, but the friends I shipped copies to knew exactly what to expect.
I believe I made these when I was still high on the kick of zines as a way to express myself, but I was still wrangling just what my vision was for Memories of Eberron. As you can see these have no titles because I simply could not think of any way to summarize them and I have a lot history of struggling to title things. Inside were collected sketches of each character on the cover. A couple were hacked up rough comics I tried to format into eight pages. It was definitely a time when I was creating without worrying too much about 'the product'. Due to their size, these zines were nice and cheap to mail out to friends. Love that.
I was running the Curse of Strahd D&D campaign for some friends at this time and wishing I could make them some prop kind of items for the game immersion. I ended up stumbling onto eightfold zines and could not help but give it a try. Baby's first zine, how cute. Each page is one of the PCs and then the last page I crammed in some relevant at the time NPCs I was running. In the end not a prop item, but it makes me nostalgic when I look at this zine.
