almost every zine i’ve made since i recently got into them has been a classic 8-page mini. it’s just so easy to grab a sheet of paper and make something when i want to get an idea out! love all of the ones you showed here. didn’t know about mini zine march, but definitely wanna make something for it now ^_^
Thank you so much for the lovely review of Witches' Brew #9!! I'd love to trade and send you my newest issues if you're up for that. Also, I didn't know the creator of This Might Hurt Tarot made zines! 😲
@@catmothcrowI turned a couple of my poems into zines. I did a couple as Penpal letters, too. I want to do at least one this month since I heard about #minimarch😊
I made a 16 page zine out of a big 18 X 24 piece of Canson Mis Tientes paper that I cut and folded. I loved the process, and the zine was about my deconversion, which is pretty emotional for me to deal with. I want to do a part two, which I started. I got as far as designing the backgrounds-and I have my theme, but for some reason, I stopped. Not ready to move forward with that one yet. So, maybe my way out of this block is to do a mini like this. Maybe combine it with some etegami . . . Thanks for the encouragement.
@@catmothcrowetegami is a Japanese practice of a small (postcard-sized) very loose, ink and wash drawing. You don’t sketch any part of your subject out beforehand, or do much planning, you just create an image in ink and wash, and it’s DONE, and the original idea was, you then send it to someone you care about as a postcard, no matter how it turned out. That’s probably the most important part of etegami according to the originator of etegami. The looseness and imperfection of etegami was in reaction to so many of the very precise, rule-laden Japanese creative arts, like ikebana, or the tea ceremony. There are several RU-vid videos about it.
