Artist Applications

Q: How do I apply?
Artists can apply via our form, open from March 25 to April 15!Q: How many artists will be accepted?
We estimate there will be space for 9-12 artists depending on the amount of applications received.Q: Will there be invited artists?
Yes, there will be 3 invited artists. They are not included in the number of artist spots listed in the above question.Q: Why aren't there more artist spots? Can't you make more spots by having more merch?
While we want to spotlight many artists, we also recognize this project should be kept relatively small and simple. The intent for this project is to make a calendar, and any merch will be small supporting items. Unfortunately, projects with lots of merch and high numbers of artists require longer productions times, cost more to ship, and are more likely to have delays.Q: What are you looking for in an artist?
We are looking for artists with a strong sense of anatomy, lighting and composition, as well as an ability to render a piece to completion. An ability to draw backgrounds is also required - though they do not need to be complex.Q: Do I need Link Click fanart in my portfolio?
It is not required, however, we would love to see it!Q: Can traditional artists apply?
Yes, so long as you are able to provide high quality scans of your work. We invite artists of all mediums to apply!
Please note, however, that this project does not accept AI art, and any applicants who use AI will not be accepted.Q: Can I apply even if I have never been part of a zine or fandom project before?
Yes! Artist applications will be chosen based on artistic ability. You do not need to have participated in a fandom project before.Q: Can I participate as an artist if I am a minor?
Yes, this is a Gen-rated project so anyone can participate. We do require a PayPal account so that we can pay you, which can be arranged after acceptance emails are sent out.Have more questions? Let us know through Tumblr, Twitter, BlueSky or email!_{Due to the small number of artist spots available, applications will be competitive. Please respect the mods' final decisions, as we are unfortunately unable to accept every application.}

Contributors who are accepted to be a part of the calendar will be contacted through email and primarily through a Discord server set up specifically for this project.Q: Where will this calendar be shipped out from?
From within the USA, and distributed world-wide (except for Russia, due to lack of coverage by international postal services).Q: Will there be a leftover store?
