I thought I might share the process of creating this image for @continuemag.bsky.social I worked pretty closley with @jacksonwryan.com to find something that felt like it spoke to the intent and vision of the magazine. hopefully this is insightful and helpful. (and proves I didn't 'generate' shit)π§΅
Hello I am going to be in the first issue of this!
Despite this fact people seem to really like the idea and it is already funded in less than a day!
Very good! Go support it more! Magazines good!
Excited to be back contributing to the thing that started my career in the first place: Australian PRINT MAGAZINES!
We have pitches open with space for a story (or two) in our first issue. We're keen to highlight voices who have only a few bylines, but we also want your absolute best ideas. Read some great pitches already, thanks for sending them in!
Our pitches form is here: forms.gle/JBRL6qQawMQM...
"This doesn't work"
"It looks like you just got on the beers"
"Can't you just delete that part?"
"I don't get this"
Some of the choice feedback we got on the #bizkitcut, the first draft of our Kickstarter video.
But we wanna do things our way.
Our way or the highway.
Another comment: "You guys look extremely tired"
We can't disagree
If you've got some cash (or know anyone who does) and are looking to REALLY support the site, we have a special 'Benefactor' membership tier that gets you enshrined on a special thanks page and grants access to staff for Qs and advice!

We've cruised past $50k!
And now we must make good on our word. We are releasing the #bizkitcut. Our first draft Kickstarter video. A video that, according to our trusted friends, should never, ever see the light of day.
But we wanna do things our way.
Our way or the highway.
24 hours post-launch.

The Limp Bizkit WrestleMania Cut of our Kickstarter Promo.
(we're sorry-not-sorry in advance)
You mad units got us at almost $50,000.
Unbelievable.
some kickstarter scam almost got my bank details, mods have to sleep now
$40,000 passed. We need some extra stretch goals and we need to release the Limp Bizkit WrestleMania Cut of our promo video. The world isn't ready for this. #releasethebizkitcut
Thank you to everyone here on Day One. We freakin' appreciate the support more than you know.
HOLY FUSHSHHHHHHHHHHHHH YOU CRAZY BASTARDS YOU DID IT
We are going to do our best to keep shipping low and may have to get creative but given *everything* going on across the Pacific we do feel slightly overwhelmed!
So excited for this project !! Lowkey the hero we need right now..??!!
Also feel very lucky to feature Parasensor art in the first edition. We'll be making an extremely cool unique piece just for this so you can rip it out and stick it on your wall like the good old days
[record scratch] yep, that's me
Oh, uh! Hello! This is CONTINUE.
