bohrokmaster Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 (edited) EDIT: I have been busy putting together a “FanZine” on photoshop. It was a personal pet project of mine and was good fun. The magazine is still in a long development phase with changes and some possible proofreading but it will be published as a file and a PDF once I have finished the entire magazine. Enjoy!🙂 What is a FanZine? A FanZine is a blend of fan and magazine as a non-professional and non-official publication produced by enthusiasts of a particular cultural phenomenon (such as a literary or musical genre) for the pleasure of others who share their interest. Is the magazine weekly, monthly, or yearly? Matoran Universe: The BIONICLE FanZine would either be yearly, monthly, or weekly, depending on which direction it would go as this is the first edition with many character biographies, possible in-depth information, and a visualised timeline detailing the history of the BIONICLE Universe. Progress 20/11/2022 - Forgot to share updates regarding my magazine🤦♂️ 4/12/2022 - I will soon upload double pages of the official Bionicle Timeline on my Flikr page. Completed 5/12/2022 - Timeline double pages now released on my Album (NOTE: Pages are still disorganised visually but will soon be re-organised with additional page numbers). Incomplete 11/12/2022 - The magazine will soon be complete in the future as a PDF format file to download. Incomplete I am currently working on the Makuta's biographies. The Toa Mata/Nuva is complete with each character's bios including biographies of the Toa Hagah, the Toa Mangai, the Toa Cordak, and the standalone Toa - Helryx, Tuyet, Dume, Naho, Nidhiki and Krakua. Completed 6/01/2023 - Finishing Rahi biographies. Matoran, Barraki, Bohrok, Bohrok-Kal and more are next. Incomplete 21/01/2023 - Currently working on Toa Inika and Toa Mahri bios. Completed 05/02/2023 - Experimenting resize layouts for the Timeline of the Bionicle Universe. 09/01/2023 - Experimenting resize layouts for all characters and double pages. 01/03/2023 - Redesigned Phantoka/Mistika Toa Nuva bios and the Toa Inika/Mahri pages. Completed My Visual Timeline of the Bionicle Mythos is shaping up but needed some specific requirements from Stud.io in the forseeable future: Stud.io file of Piraka Masks, Heads, and Spines (2006) Edited July 29, 2023 by bohrokmaster 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nescent Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 Wow! This is a great idea, and you've done a good job with it so far. What a cool way to breathe some fresh life into the old Bionicle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It won't be perfect as a fan-made magazine, but it was something I enjoyed doing as a hobby on photoshop.🙂 Edited January 31, 2023 by bohrokmaster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was considering in changing the caption "Celebrating 20 years" to "Celebrating 22 years" but it could be either of them, I don't know🤷♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
