Zine Contributions


in KaleidoScope #3:

[art by Rudas]: Absolutely wonderful illustrations accompanying two stories. I love being able to see what's happening in a story and it's such a delightful surprise to come across these drawings as I'm reading. I wish there were more artists who would directly illustrate a story. I don't usually do it because it's very, very difficult to be able to actually translate an author's vision into an illustration.

These remind me of Gayle F's drawings, especially the one for "The Auction" (my personal favorite). I know they're not the same style, but they share a similar feeling of intensity.

I got to meet this artist for the first time at Shore Leave. I wish I had seen these then so I could have told her in person. Excellent, excellent work! [1]


in KaleidoScope #4:


[for the story Deceptions and Delusions"] Rudas's picture opposite page 30 is really nice. I get acutely uncomfortable seeing Spock smiling like that, probably the way Kirk feels as he's looking at the portraits. I presume that the editor commissioned the artist to work from the manuscript of the story, which was a great idea and the sort of unseen thing that editors do to make their zines special. Good work on both Rudas's and Emily Adams' part.) [2]
