Just converted one of my recent comic posts into a foldable 8-page zine. Printed on A4 (folded to A6), though printable on A3 as well. Didn’t know this size could be so satisfying.
Free download, for you to keep it handy every Monday. Here you go:

Hope you like it.
Looking to connect with fellow zine makers from India. To connect, collaborate, learn from each other, swap. Not sure if there are many.
All pictures shot on the iPhone 17 pro, straight from the NoFusion app (K1 LUT), and no post-processing.
My second zine, based on the great Indian head massage. A sequential wordless zine (except one word), fully hand-illustrated.
I love massages, and the Indian head massage (or champi, as it is called) is an experience of its own. I came home one day having gotten one, thought I’d make just an illustration about it, and ended up filling 32 pages!
Thank you for all the love you gave to my first zine, ‘The Office Laptop’. I’d have never done a second one without it. Hope you like this one too. Similar illustration style here, but more whimsical :)
You can download it / support me on my ko-fi.
Presenting my second zine, Champi - The great Indian head massage adventure. For anyone who’s ever gotten one, you know it’s a rollercoaster. For anyone who hasn’t, it’s nothing like you’ve experienced before - trust me.
In the same colourful and whimsical style as the previous one. This one is all visuals, no words (except one!). 32 pages, A5. Flipping through it should make you almost feel like you’re getting a massage.
A high-res printable digital version is available for purchase on my ko-fi:
Hope you like it as much as you liked the previous one. Thank you for all your support 😍 I’m already working on my third and fourth ones in parallel. Just can’t stop! Zine-making is addictive.
And I mean it when I say it - this is the most supportive community on the internet, period.
PS: Thanks to you guys who guided me in creating my ko-fi, and truckloads of love for the ones who supported me for the last one.
My first set of shots with Leica Q3 (28mm), and boy, am I in love! The first and the third shots are just crops of the shots in the second and fourth frame. All have near zero editing - only exposure correction and cropping.
Hope you like them :)
PS: Still figuring the best way to put landscape shots in vertical aspect ratios except cropping or stacking them (like in image 2 and 4). Any suggestions are welcome.

Thanks to the encouragement given by so many of you in this community, I finally put up the printable digital copy of my zine on ko-fi for sale.
Presenting, Office Laptop - The secret manual your employer doesn't want you to see. An alternate user manual of the work laptop, because we love to use it for everything other than work.
I honestly had no idea when I posted in this community that my zine would get so much love. I hadn’t even heard of ko-fi, till one of you told me about it.
Here’s the link for purchase:
https://ko-fi.com/s/c9957164e0
It’s a print-ready digital copy with 32 pages (including cover), 13 alternate uses of the work laptop, super quirky descriptions, even a whacky troubleshooting guide in case someone tries to give you work.
Also comes with 3 complimentary wallpapers for your phone.
Would love for you to support my art 😍
PS: Second zine coming soon.
Thank you guys for encouraging me. Was finally able to click some half-decent pictures of my first zine (most pages, at least).

Went a little crazy with it. But I guess that’s what zines are about? ;)
Printed a few copies for a recent ComicCon in India, and people loved it. Managed to sell a few as well. Now made them available on my website, but only shipping in India for now.
What next? Where do I take it from here?
