update on the $25+ tiers that were ordered before the 23rd of feb: I have over half of you done (that will be going to the post office in the next week) and the rest of you will be hopefully done by that time as well.

everyone who ordered after the 23rd of feb, yours will be done most likely the week after that, i have a very busy shedule right now with work but i’ll endeavour to pack yours up asap!!! i cant thank you enough everyone for your patience

After weeks of set backs I finally have some good news to share. The zines finally came the day before I leave on my US trip and i’ve spent my whole day packing up all the ones I can.

Whats does the mean for your order? Well if you’re in the $20 and under range I have signed + packed up your zine! My mum will very kindly be posting them for me when I leave so they should officially ship in the next week or so. You will unlikely receive a gumroad email as I dont have a PC with me while travelling to let you know it’s been sent. 

For those in the over $25 range I’m working through you mostly chronologically but there is around 60 of you and I will not be able to finish them all by the time I leave tomorrow so your zine will be shipped the week i come back (20th of March)

As I mentioned yesterday: as an apology i’ll be sending a digital .pdf of the zine to all those who ordered with me before the 22nd of Feb once I get back.

Thank you all for your continued patience, Im really really proud of these zines and i think they look fantastic, im excited for you all to get yours hands on them :))

I sent my zine off over a week ago but the printer only today marked my order as dispatched which means i might get it tomorrow. (48 hour guaranteed dispatch my ass)

I’m leaving for a trip to the US on the 1st of March and so wont be able to send all (if any) of them off before I leave. I come back on the 20th and I’ll make sure to pack and sent them all off immediately.

I’m so sorry for this delay, i just want everyone to have this zine already!! As an apology i’ll be sending a digital .pdf of the zine to all those who ordered with me before the 22nd of Feb once I get back.

Thank you all so much for your continued patience.

Heya sorry this is short notice but I had hoped all the zines would have sold by now. I’m on a trip to the USA 1-20th of March so that means no posting ! The orders will still be open but I won’t be able to get them out to you until after I get back, thank you for your patience :)

Update #1 - delayed printing

So I was hit by a PC problem past few days and so this has slowed my progress with the book, i had planned to get this to the printers on Sunday 12th but it looks more like Tuesday or Wednesday right now. this means the books should still be in my hands by the end of this week or early next week so it’s not a huge set back.

Stickers have been sent off to the printers and I should receive them tomorrow ! I’m very excited to post pictures of them.

Unlike last year not all books have been sold by the time of printing so if any of you were worried about not having time to grab a copy, there are still some left :)

ZINE OFFICIALLY FUNDED !!

We broke into the profit margin today with just under half of the 200 copies sold! This means this zine will go to print 100% funded and all artists will be paid in full as soon as it does. I cant thank you all enough for your kind tips, with all of you I've more than doubled the profit of this zine and reached this milestone far earlier in the orders than I anticipated.

There’s still plenty of pre-orders left so grab yours before they’re gone!

I believe I read you were also planning to reprint the first volume as well, will there be an option to order both at the same time?

Avatar

i’ve decided against this unfortunately, i have to be very careful with zine number as the profit margin is pretty low and i cant afford to not sell a minimum order. 

That is to say I wont ever reprint Vol 1! I just don’t have time right now to work out the extra costs and profits. mayhaps when Vol.3 rolls round if Vol.2 is a success. or maybe a solo reprint after Vol 2.

It’s time for volume 2!

Some of you may already know my sapphic zine project but for those of you who dont I’m @hattersarts and I draw wlw all day every day.

Overwatch has been a real blessing for me because the femslash aspect of the fandom is so huge and I want to give back to the fandom! Last year I produced a 50 page zine dedicated to the femslash ships of overwatch with 40 pages of art by me and 10 pages of art by paid guest artists. This year I want to do the same.

The price for Volume 2. is $15 which includes the zine, 5 stickers (here are last years) and shipping to the whole world.

Pre-orders and Guest artist slots are open until February 6th

DETAILS ABOUT ART SUBMISSION CAN BE FOUND HERE any questions just shoot me an ask!

Hi! I saw your post about the Overwatch zine and I'm just wondering, will there be more information about how to buy one later? I've never bought a zine before (or any artwork off the internet really), so I have no idea what I'm doing, but I'm very interested in buying it as a gift for my partner. Thank you!

It’s just like buying anything from the internet. I’ll be selling the pre-order for the zine on gumroad which accepts both card and paypal then once all the orders are in I will print everything and send it out :)
