FemFiciton Zine

I'm part of a ladies-only group that meets once a month to create a zine called FemFiciton. Below is the artwork I've drawn for the first three issues:

This was my submission for Volume #1. I drew my Tough Girl on a field of battle. (BTW the original drawing has been sold, I do have prints available-email me if you want one!)

On the left is our first published issue! I drew the cover for Volume #1! On the right is my submission for V.2-dragons and roller derby...

Last but not least, this is my artwork for Volume #3. I had an idea about an Mayan-inspired dragon I HAD to get out my head. Luckily the idea turned into a nifty ink drawing!

This 2"x3" minicomic was made from thumbnails I drew in my sketchbook with an 02 Micron. I photocopied the sketches at 125%, cut out each page with a blade, and then assembled the comic by gluing the thumbnails into a simple book I made out of Xerox paper and a staple. The above pic shows the front and back covers (upper left) and 3 interior spreads.

Why did I do this? I'm planning on self-publishing this comic in installments and I wanted to double-check layouts and page turns before I started inking issue #1.

Bonus sketch: This is Sibley, the star of the aforementioned comic drawn with an 05 Micron and red Tombo marker. She is holding Tengu, her beloved pet and companion.
