EDIT: This comic is complete! Feel free to read it through.

I'm thinking something like this.

My coloring skill's basically nonexistent. The whole point of this comic would be to work on coloring. Work on coloring FAST.

Each page would probably be fewer panels than NMG. Instead of 8 or 9, this would probably be more 5 or 6.

What part of the spectrum is this?!!
Looks good now so if you follow the same rate of improvement as NMTG, should be approximately 'perfect' by Chapter 5 or 6!

Little known fact: Chewbacca is addicted to cleaning. It's why he was kicked off kshsrhrhgkkska (or however you pronounce his homeworld).

Kashyyyk! The lush jungle shores of Kashyyyk.

Awh muh gyawd, it's in color too! :D

JasperWB 26th Jun 2012, 2:32 AM edit delete

I support this being few, large panels per page in color. I'm interested to see how you'd do color and then getting to watch it evolve. Especially if its got vibrant space colors in vibrant space outfits!

Oooooohh... I like already...
Nice gritty atmosphere!

P.S.
I like the Subtitle of this comic... "It's got colors!"

cattservant 26th Jun 2012, 3:12 AM edit delete

How about "It's Spectrum Enhanced!"

It's got colors! SO GRITTY!

cattservant 26th Jun 2012, 3:19 AM edit delete

So the technology is part of the background and the action prevails?

Sheela 1st Jul 2012, 10:51 AM edit delete

Not only is it gritty .. it's GRITTY IN COLORS ! :D

Her ship looks like my study...

Shading and highlighting with color is just a thing of practice... I think your plan will pay off quickly... especially if you play with lighting angles and reflected light.

Does "red" have a name yet?

Iridium Lake. Lake to her enemies, Iri to her friends.

This is pulp.

duLapel 26th Jun 2012, 5:12 AM edit delete

With a name like Iridium Lake she must be HOT... well at 2466 C she'd make any crucible blush >.<

What! It's full of brightly colored brassieres?

view 26th Jun 2012, 3:41 AM edit delete

Yeah.

cattservant 26th Jun 2012, 3:52 AM edit delete

Gritty all right!

Prestidigititis 14th Jul 2012, 10:52 PM edit delete

Hopefully the brassieres themselves aren't gritty.

cattservant 14th Jul 2012, 11:40 PM edit delete

Maybe that's why she's not wearing any of them...

Hey! You finally got icons for everything. Now it stands out in my subscriptions list from all the many comics I follow and then promptly get scrapped or abandoned shortly after.

Brex (Guest) 26th Jun 2012, 4:33 AM edit delete

While I am certainly interested in your new comic, I do have a question to ask. Hopefully I won't be crucified for it, but what is pulp?

cattservant 26th Jun 2012, 4:41 AM edit delete

There is pulp and there is pulp!

Space Pulp: Where space trees with good karma ascend to in their next reincarnation.

Who actually believes those silly stories about rain?

Didn't FFVI start out on a night like that?

CyberSkull 28th Jun 2012, 1:50 AM edit delete

It was snowing in the start of Final Fantasy VI.

The script is very Warren Ellis to me here. Which is a good thing. The best possible thing.

view 30th Jun 2012, 2:43 PM edit delete

Two pages in and it feels Warren Ellis?

You know he writes his scripts textually - he doesn't do thumbnails or anything. So it could be that this is a Warren Ellis script implemented by an artist who fucks up panel design and layout!

Unfortunately, it's not. I'm nowhere near as gritty a writer. And my accent isn't as interesting.

JasperWB 30th Jun 2012, 4:55 PM edit delete

Hmm. I feel like this is a situation where you need someone to back you up with an "Oh Snap!" or "You go girl!". Yet I don't want to encourage you ragging on your drawing skills..

Sheela 1st Jul 2012, 10:54 AM edit delete

... "You go girl!" ???

View, is there something you haven't told us ?

Ambivalence is the lubricant of the universe...
