My zine is about John Baskerville. I chose him as my subject for two reasons: one was that I find his style to be very elegant and legible. My second reason was that I figured there\u2019d be a sufficient amount of information about him that I could use. He was a very interesting character and I enjoyed learning more about him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I made my zine in the style of books from his time period. The front cover was done with color pencils and ink, and the inside spreads were done with the same mediums, as well as chalk. The chalk was the main component for making the pages look and feel more real. It adds a soft grainy feel when touched. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
If I were to give myself a grade, I might go with a seven. The choice to make it look like an old book meant that I couldn\u2019t add as much color as I would\u2019ve liked. Though I enjoyed making the ink drawings a lot, and I think they look pleasing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
