Guidelines
GeneralDepending on what the interest check reveals, the idea was to have a general Hawks part, and a shipping part to the Zine.
Which shippings and the general connections to Hawks used in the zine will be determined by the Interst Check.We're looking for contributors who are 18+.
This is still a zine featuring Hawks so he has to be the main character of each piece.We will be having two pieces to the zine, one is SFW with ratings up to T, which can include ships but nothing more than kissing.
The other is NSFW and can go up to E in rating and can also include ships.
We will only be using ships where the people included in said ship are adults in canon.WritersAs we're planning on a piece of 2,000 words for a writer, we'd like to see what you're able to do based on; characterisation, depicting a setting, conveying emotion and depth in your story, as well as grammar.
For the interest check please link 3 - 5 of your best pieces between 1,500 and 2,500 words, as well as a link to your full portfolio. Preferably at least one piece has to feature a character of the MHA/BNHA universe.ArtistsAs we're planning on accepting merch artists, page artists and spot artist for this zine, it depends on which role you see yourself doing. Merch artist are expected to make merch based off of Hawks/pairing with Hawks in it that can be downloaded with the free zine (think bookmarks, a stickersheet or a A5 print). Spot artist are expected to make art for 1 - 3 written pieces which either include one larger drawing or up to three smaller ones. Page artist are expected to make a page spread of either one page, or a double page. We'd like to see what you're able to do based on; depiction of a character (movement, anatomy), depth in your piece (emotion depicted, use of color and shading) and backgrounds (especially for page artists).
For the interest check please link 3 - 5 of your best pieces, as well as a link to your full portfolio. Preferable at least one piece has a MHA/BNHA character featured.
FAQ

YesHow much will it cost?
0; unless you feel the need to support the contributors.Will there be shipping featured?
This is the intention, which ships are to be determined after the IC.Can this feature an AU or Canon-divergent Storyline?
Seeing as it's a zine celebrating Hawks as the character, as long as he's the main character in your piece this can be done.Can I add in my OC (original character)?
No, this zine will feature canon characters only. OCs, self-inserts or reader-inserts will not appear.Will this zine touch on spoilers?
Most likely, some contributors will be up to date on the manga so spoilers can be included.Why do I have to be 18+ to join?

Not needed but it is something we take into consideration as we want to be true to characters depicted.
