Woah, I forgot about this. I had an issue with Peach Girl comics in it.
It’s interesting to see western shoujo magazines prior to the indiscriminate consumption of all things anime/manga, and how they present these comics in a western context.
so many good things happening here
YES YES YES I TOTALLY OWN THIS it’s somewhere in my closet back home….. srs throwback nostalgia!!
this is fucking great

put the mother to sleep. me, andy and lucy got a drawing of a building each in there, lucy did the alfred munnings drawing, and the text, katie did the NUCA N. kt feels bad cos none of her buildings got picked, and she got stuck doing the boring N. we all want her involved, obvs, and her buildings weren’t shit … i honestly feel like ours were better tho
they wanted something quite loose … loosey goosey lucy could’ve done the whole thing, tbh. they liked her text as well … none of us really did, and it took ages, but oh well
done
now let’s get paid
glyn has put a team together. me, katie, andy and lucy are illustrating the timeline brief about the history of NUCA.
brainstorming on tuesday, a lot of the points seem to relate to buildings. i like the idea of drawing buildings … thought we could tie together the drawings with collage? but that is a bit of a harsh biff for katie … “oh stick some collage behind everyone else’s drawings”. I mean, projects shouldn’t be a democracy, we shouldn’t get an equal part
the brief isn’t too helpful either. black line drawings? but they want yellow? how much? what size will they actually be? only a5, or other sizes? important questions… I think. maybe we are being too fussy
drawing the college buildings today, everyone came up with some good stuff. i think katie feels like we’re patronising her … just because she doesn’t do a huge amount of drawing on life/location in her portfolio work, doesn’t mean she can’t do it.
we need to stop taking criticisms of our work personally. me and andy can do it in a pair. maybe even four is too big a group
think katie/andy are doing some photoshop stuff tonight. send some roughs tomorrow, see what they want, then hopefully do finals tomorrow (at least lucy’s because she is leaving early on friday(the deadline))
