Ten Things #3: My Wallpaper*

So I promised you a sight of what I made using this natty tool (now available to everyone).

There you go. I’ll just wait for your call then, shall I Mr Chambers?

If ever anything were to prove why I didn’t go into design… anyway, also of note is that the digital printing didn’t seem to be that great – there are two shiny lines running the height of my masterpiece, and also the back page ad came out a little flat. Still, for a fun gimmick, it more than served its purpose.

I also really like the final touch – that you handmake it to the last using the sticker provided, thereby covering up your own address in the process.

Pretty good issue inside, at first glance, too. Love the bound-in sketchbook, too – great concept, reinterpreting the contents in an interesting way. Would have loved that to have been bound right at the front, instead of a contents page.

    Any cover depicting the crucifixion of a death’s head afroclown Tyler Brûlé on an asterisk of his own making is alright by me.

    Probably won’t sell very well in Portugal, mind you.
