D.Gray-Man ICONIC MOMENTS ZINE Application Form - Closing 07th of February

Last year, we made the 20th Anniversary Zine which contained the redrawing of the first tome but also 18 illustrations of Iconic Moments from the manga. We had a blast summarizing the manga with it and since there are so many more Iconic Moments that we weren't able to draw, we are doing a proper Zine of it this year! There are two ways to participate to the Zine :

  • Iconic Moments : a big illustration summarizing an important moment of the manga (like Lenalee destroying the Akuma 3 from double-zero-rei, Allen discovering the 14th on the Arc from Ennael, End of Alma Arc from Oon, Neah and the Earl reunion from shimmeringweedsart)
  • Doodles : a little colored drawing of your favorite moments/characters

While anyone can make an original doodle for the Doodle section of the zine as long as they apply for it through this form, please keep in mind that there will be limited applicants accepted for DGM's Iconic Moments.

For more examples of both the doodles and the Iconic Moments (IMs), please take a look at those sections from the 20th anniversary zine from last year, which can be found through this link.

This project will be free to view once completed, we're not going to sell anything from this, it will be just for fun, a tribute to the manga. You'll have 3 months (from mid-february to mid-may) to complete your piece(s) once the assignments are out. Once you have completed the Application Form we will send you a link to the Discord server of the project, so please make sure you write the correct email and discord handle! If we haven't contacted you before the 9th of February, please, send us a PM! 

If you're unsure about your English level, mods fluently speak English, French, Spanish, and Japanese and other contributors will surely be able to help you for other languages. If you have any questions, leave a comment below or send a PM.

The Application Form for the DGM Iconic Moments Zine is here!

Also, consider rebbloging so other DGM fans can see it! On that note, welcome aboard!

Hello, the applications for the Iconic Moment section of the Zine are now closed! 

Everyone that did not take part in the 20th project last year should have received an email from the project, please check your spam! People that were already in the project last year should have received a discord PM. If you did not receive anything, please contact the mods asap by PM on tumblr or twitter. If you are learning about the project too late, you can still participate in the doodle section by sending us a PM either on tumblr or on twitter. We will check it regularly and send you a link to the discord server. Though, please understand your application may be refused if we are too close to the end of the project or the project gets too big to manage properly.

Thank you all for signing into the project, and see you soon in the discord!

Completed May 2024 -----

A little late to the party LOL but decided to finally make an account and post~ I was lucky enough to have many opportunities to create for the @dgm20thproject, here are the pages I contributed to! I redrew the spread on 56-57 and 170.

Thank you SO MUCH DGM for inspiring me every day to become a better artist, storyteller, and good human being 🩵

Competed May 2024 ----- Finally getting around to posting this too :)

This is my "iconic moment" for the @dgm20thproject ! My moment covers the introduction of Apocryphos, the Noah's assisting with Allen's escape from the Order, Road sacrificing herself for Allen, Link using magic against Apocryphos, and Lavi and Bookman (they were kidnapped!)

Less than one week left to apply! Because someone asked, don't worry if you do not have answer right now, we know a lot a people will sign up last minute so it's complicated to select currently. However, we may contact you if there is a problem with your application (like we can't access your references or you only sent close up and we need more examples) Also, please do not sign up multiples times.

Secret Lero Gift for @darlighl ! Their prompt was an "awkward Noah family dinner". Awkward=Sheryl in my mind and the idea popped up pretty much right away. It's only my 2nd manga pages ever (and the first was 10 years ago without counting the redraw DGM) but it was really interesting to work on :D I didn't have the time to colour it fully, maybe someday... (Tyki is grinning at the end because it happened to him way too many times before >:3 )

took part in the dgm zine servers Secret Lero gifting, and made this for @seijitheclown :)

Had a lot of fun with the prompt as you can see.

Neah didn't spend all day baking with Mana just for these two piranhas to swoop in and have some first!

Four Winters, a yulma comic ❄️💜💙

I was struck with this idea for the Secret Lero gift exchange, snapshots of a kinder timeline where Kanda & Alma spend many winters together 🥹 It’s my first ever comic!

dgm secret lero gift exchange present for @badnightstar ! this is their oc lucy in her younger days with neah and tim, playing music together :> hopefully not too out of character for them dhsigdis i could've kept working on this painting for forever i think but i think it looks ok now..! hopefully.....! anyway i hope u like it :>

This year 2024, a bunch of people in the DGM fandom gathered for a secret santa event-- or a Secret Lero Gift event rather! I made one for cylinderhat/ms_anya. They're on Twitter! please show their amazing art some love!

I was given the prompt of Mana organizing a play and making everyone participate and this somehow turned into playing a little bit of dress up with the characters. (Yes, that is an interpretation of a 'younger' Cross in a dress. And yes, it was fun to design!)

Happy Holidays everyone and may the year ahead be promising and wonderful!

And here is my secret santa for izuizumateus (twitter/bsky) within the anniversary discord secret santa!

Fav character of theirs is Allen and fav trope is found family.

Visiting christmas markets is one of my favorite family traditions and I imagined Tim and Allen visiting some. I can tell this is the artwork I am the most proud of this year.

Bonus under the cut.
