Hello! It's a beautiful zine! Thank you for mentioning the supplier you used. It's always so handy to know. I've checked out Mixam before and I'll be using them for my zine so it's wonderful to see and know that they are great to work with X

Thank you Nami! 😊 I have been using them also for my other two zines and really, I can’t complain. They always included some extras when printing issues occurred! Good luck with your zine! 😊

Oh no, I’m making a book about pigeons. I’m keeping it a secret and this is the book I want to write 😊 Anyway absolutely fantastic that you feel the same. I’ve just ordered a copy from Etsy so I don’t copy yours 😊 and also because it looks marvellous.

Haha! "Pigeon colour" - what a great name for a paint. Thanks for the helpful advice about printing. 😃

You are more than welcome Robyn! 😊 I did find another couple of colours which are “pigeon friendly”, maybe I will talk about them in another post 🤣

Congratulations on the publication of your Zine Giulia! All hail the Schmincke Tundra Violet, it's such a beautiful paint 💜

Thank you Emma! 🤗 It’s an amazing colour! 🥰I think the Roman Szmal Aquarius Violet is a good competitor and very similar in terms of granulation!
