The Farewell Zine is a fanmade zine celebrating the conclusion of Mystery Skulls Animated after 12 years of hard work, creativity, and memories!After 12 years of creativity and hard work, Mystery Skulls Animated concluded on its own anniversary and caused an unprecedented wave of heartfelt art and messages to hit the internet. What if there was a way for us fans to preserve this moment in time and give MSA a great big send off?The Farewell Zine is the answer to that! Inspired by farewell tours, this zine will contain the work of several artists and writers, each entry representing a different Mystery Skulls song. It’s a concert in the form of a book!The Farewell Zine is projected to release both digital and physical copies for sale alongside merchandise bundles.We are not affiliated with the Mystery Skulls Animated team or Mystery Skulls.

Q: Is this zine safe for work?
Yes! All content within the Farewell Zine will be kept strictly SFW.Q: Will there be any shipping content in this zine?

As contributors will be compensated via Paypal, you need to be at least 18 due to Paypal's policies. However, if you are 17 and turn 18 before/during April 2027, you can apply!Q: Do I need a portfolio to apply?
If you have a portfolio already, that's great! But if you don't, you can just submit a google drive link containing at least 3 of your best pieces, to show that you can produce consistent work. Make sure it's accessible before you submit!Q: Do I need MSA-related art in my portfolio?
Nope! You do not need to be an established MSA fanartist, nor do you need to include MSA fanart in your portfolio when you apply. But we'd love to see your MSA pieces if you have some!Q: Do I need prior zine experience to apply?
Nope! While there will be a yes/no question regarding prior experience on the application, it only exists to gauge how we should manage the team. It doesn't affect your chances at all!Q: How much will the zine cost?
Our smallest bundle (digital zine only) will cost $10, while our full bundle (digital + physical zine, & merch) is estimated to cost around $50!
(These are speculative prices and are subject to change. Please consider these speculative prices do not include shipping costs.)Q: Will the zine ship outside of the US?
Most likely: yes! One of our mods is based in Europe, so having international shipping was one of the first things on our mind. We're currently figuring out shipping to Central America, South America, Oceania, Europe, and Asia!Q: Can the zine include [ ] by the MSA crew/Mystery Skulls?
We are not affiliated with either party nor do we know them closely enough to ask of anything. Plus, that's not what the Farewell Zine is really about. It's made purely by fans as a show of gratitude to the show and creators behind it.Q: Is [minor character] going to be included in the zine?
While we'd love to include everyone, we cannot say for certain at this point. Contributors are encouraged to create pieces with the characters they want to, and no “character requirements” will be enforced.
