Postal fanzine




HIIII!! I had to make a fanzine for literature class and since we were allowed to do whatever we wanted, I decided to make a fanzine about Postal because I'm obsessed with it so why not? XP

So yeah, I'm not gonna show the full thing because there's some stuff I don't really like or I just don't think it's worth show it.



COVER:


I wanted to make something like a magazine from the 2000s, mainly because I first wanted to make a magazine but it was expensive so I ended up choosing the fanzine instead, because is more traditional.

Ngl, I would have liked to do more for the cover because I feel is kinda simple... But I still really liked it!



Also, I thought it would be great to add phrases from actual advertisements for Postal, specially Postal 1; I got the "What Went Wrong?" from there.


The reference:



POSTAL 1997:


All of the Postal 1997 stuff I made :3

First I made a review; NONE OF THE REVIEWS I'M GONNA SHOW ARE READABLE BECAUSE I'M ONLY SHOWING THEM FOR THE AESTHETIC, SORRYYYY!!



Yeaaahh... You can't really see the black letters, I know, but I swear you can see them irl (╥﹏╥) Though it's simple, I thinkit looks good, not thebest, but it's something.





Here's a newspaper that I mainly did based on the ones from Postal 2. Honestly? I really liked how this came out!! One of my favorite stuff ⸜(。˃ ᵕ ˂ )⸝♡



Advertisement! :D I made everything out of colored paper, yes, even the little Postal Dude... It took some time but I'm proud of the result.

It was the first time I ever made something like that.




POSTAL 2:



Another advertisement, this time, I based this one on a magazine cover with the beta P2 Dude, just the pose.
I also took reference of a button I found on Tumblr and THANK GOD I did because the drawing is fire ngl. I even had to make the logo myself because I couldn't find a png alone, so yeah, lot of work.


The reference:





Another review, yeah, this is the only one where I actually got some creativity. Sorry, I love Postal 2, clearly my fav game.




Simple, kinda messy, but at least the phrase is cool.




Paradise report. I was gonna make a report following the first newspaper, but I didn't want to repeat myself so much so I made a report about Postal 2.





Extra!



We were supossed to make a fake interview. Honestly, I would have liked to actually interview Vince or Mike J since they're really close to their community, but due to time and me not wanting to bother, I prefered to simply watch actual interviews and copy the answers so they don't feel like me trying too hard to guess what would Vince think.





Yep, these are part of the project, no, I didn't just put them for no reason, the teacher asked for them xdxd






And this is it! I did make a lot of other stuff that I didn't add here because they mainly were just text or I got lazy when I made them so they aren't that good.

I hope you liked what I showed here though (๑>◡<๑) I had so much fun with the most of these, I wanted to share some.



BYEEEEE!!!

This is so sick! I'd love to be able to do a project like this. I might now just for my own fun.

It was fun! Honestly, if this wasn't a school project, I would have tried better but in some stuff, it's clear I only wanted to finish things the soon as possible...

If you know how to draw, you should totally try making Postal Dude's paper stuff :D trust me, they're not that hard when you tried them and they're so fun to do too (⁠ ⁠◜⁠‿⁠◝⁠ ⁠)⁠♡
