Maiko Zine

Spot Artists (8)

Spot artists are expected to produce 4-6 fully-colored spot illustrations. Spot illustrations may range from objects (like Zuko's crown) to small scenes (Maiko overlooking the sunset) and should not take up more than one third of a page.

Background of spot art (i.e. the sunset part of the drawing) may span the whole spread.

Six spot artists will be paired with a writer and two will be paired with the formatting mod to create assets that will decorate miscellaneous pages of the zine (i.e. the table of contents, section title page, credit page, forward, end notes).

Writers (6)

Writers will be expected to produce ONE 2000-2500-word, Maiko-centric oneshot that roughly falls within one of the following themes:
Maiko as Childhood Friends

Alternate Universe/Crossover 1
Alternate Universe/Crossover 2
Alternate Universe/Crossover 3
