ToyCyte: Toy Culture Collected

Well. this was a cool and unexpected collaboration. Although we’ve written about the fine black and white DIY periodical known as  Color Ink Book, I was pleasantly surprised to see that MCA contributed some colorful graphics to the project: notably a button pack, huge banner and the cover of issue 2. You can read some words from MCA here at the Color Ink Blog. While Jason Washburn, who, with his wife, sews the plush crayons, was circulating around the con, Adam Washburn (pictured with Meghan Washburn above) told me more about how artists can get involved. Some are contacted directly by the Brothers and others volunteer their outlines. Issue 2 features colorable art by MCA, Jeremy Fish, Skinner, Otter X (I.W.G.), Marco Rached (SPRFKR), Sec 1, Formfieber and Nathan Spoor. If you’re not at Wondercon this weekend, you can pick it up online for $10 here.
