Gackt Army fanbook

[wongkk.livejournal.com]

Today I received in the mail a package beautifully prepared by GA's one-woman Publishing Corps, bugackt and containing a desk calendar, SYH sticker AND a copy of the same Gackt Army fanbook as Gackt himself receives (and has done for 2008, 2009, 2010). 

The fanbook is a review of comm activity throughout the year, so it's a mix of stories, fanmade goods, artwork, polls, photos etc all contributed by GA soldiers and edited by bugackt (midori) to a high professional standard.  I'd love you all to see this fanbook because it's a piece of work produced to impeccable Gackt-standard and reflecting the talent, enthusiasm, dedication, creativity and general awesomeness of the GA comm! 






















Hope you enjoyed this selection of photos.

The shields are mine and were the most appropriate things I had to hand to use as paper-weights.  All else is from bugackt.

Thank you thank you! I'm happy that you like it. Since you are also in the printing industry, I trust your judgment. ;) The choice of paper (C2S 100) was by my boss himself. He rejected my first choice which was just thinner (C2S60). XD The laser printer is new so he's still bragging about it, so when I got this idea of desk calendar, I told him, "let's make use of your new printer." ^^; He was so pleased with the printouts that he offered this to customers (the personalized desk calendars). XDD

It's the same thing with the fanbook printing, he was the one more excited about it after hearing that copies will be sent to the US, UK and Japan. LOL

I'm also pleased at the places where my name was positioned. LOL But actually I wasn't that mindful where it be placed. I just put it anywhere it seemed to fit.

okay right... here we have loads of paper types but either we cann it differently or i dunno XD
im in a printing press which has an offset printer and a digital (two) printers.. we currently have a digital printer which also does books.

The ones we have arent laser however - theyr digital. the offset ones .. are on a different level! XD

ah i wish my boss where as energetic and excited.... to me the paper you used for printing is alongside the lines of Matt Art 200gsm.

the printing quality is quite flawless to me. it printed light colours like orange and green really really beautiful!

yes over all i have no bad comments on all accounts! sry for the rabble... when youre in the printing industry you start nitpicking every little detail of anything printed you recieve >>

it is a very good idea to offer this to clients... i think my company is going that way even thought me and my other colleague (designer) look slightly forward to it.. on another hand it means more hectic stuff for us... especially since the calendars end up coming at the worst time of the year XDDDDDD

loved the layout of the months as well :D very original and the colours are fantastic! :D im enjoying having it in front of me at my desk (at home) its a modern kind of calendar with Gackt all the same and im very happy to have it! plus it brightens my day with its dashing colours! :D

look forward to your future works! :D and THANK YOU (you and Wongkk) its sincerely fantastic!! XD

((sorry for the tech printing babble... sorry mods hope i didnt go too much off!))
