The theme of the thirteenth Object Head Zine is “Villains”.

Let's celebrate the bad guys this time around, let the horrors win, and have the darkness claim the day. This year's zine wants you to imagine what if the baddies got their way and show off how cool being villains can be.

This book will feature 29 people I’ve selected, plus 31 open slots available to the public for a total of 60 participants! This year’s zine is a PAID OPPORTUNITY of $115 USD per page (an increase from previous years!). Participants will be paid as soon as they complete their piece  (give or take a week for PayPal to transfer funds). There will be a pre-order sale to cover the costs of printing and shipping.

The 29 pre-selected participants are:

Potentialforart | Corviday | Louise Kay Uy | Cosmicloak | jeong | theHoleyness | Nighto | Blacklimes | Sarah Skrutskie | Iris | Juliette GMM López | Cacoethic + Lenalis | Caitlin Ono | Inktrashing | Ribboneels | TK Pinkerton | nauma | Nikru | JOU | Kosse | PigDemonArt | CHRISQI | June Flores | BunnyangelArt | K_Duffles | Rainboopz | Solaire | Dr.Jingles

The guidelines are as follows:

Illustration-quality works in either digital or traditional mediums. Both colour and b/w acceptable; background required. *BG can be as simple as a pattern or colour block!

6”x9”, 300 DPI illustrations with a 1/8th inch bleed (FINAL DIMENSIONS SHOULD BE 6.25” x 9.25”) Works must be in CMYK, and in a vertical format only.

At least one (1) work in progress picture should be sent in with your final illustration.

For consistency’s sake, keep faces to a minimum (You can have eye(s) or you can have mouth(s) but don’t have both in a humanoid arrangement.)

Original characters only (yours or your friends’).

You can include humans or other creatures, as long as there’s a 1:1   object head to non-object head/human ratio.

This book is for all ages. PG-13 content at the most! Cartoon violence and blood are acceptable, but realistic gore is NOT. Use your common sense. If you’re unsure, run the idea by me.

Protagonists can be included in the composition but we want to make sure the villain is the main focus.

Completed illustrations must be sent as a flattened psd or tiff file

TO APPLY, FILL OUT THE GOOGLE FORM HERE

There are only 10 slots for comics available due to page count space so if you apply for a comic space, and you are selected, you may not be picked for comics but instead illustration!
