Runaway to the Stars: Comic WIP (Patreon)

So, Terranaut was rejected by the publisher I pitched to, so it will be getting self-published the same way Airsled was. I had some brief back and forth with the publisher, confirming my suspicion that the property of mine they were specifically interested in was the original RttS story with Talita as protagonist. I reassessed and I'm feeling a lot more confident in starting work on it that now than when they originally queried me in 2017, so I've decided to try pitching it next. No guarantee they won't reject this pitch too, but that's just publishing, baby!!

RttS is supposed to be a series of 150-200 page books in a sort of a tonkoban/manga style. Since I want to publish them at a reasonable frequency, the style I'm planning on is a refined version of my hatching/pencils, in greyscale. I wasn't entirely happy with my greyscale work in Airsled, and this is a style that feels a lot more natural to me-- basically, it's what I've been doing for Terranaut rough pages. I think it will also be faster for me to complete.

For the pitch I have to complete 5 pages, so I'm expanding on a scene I've already drawn and really liked. We'll see where this goes. I'll keep ya'll updated.
