Star Stream HD Trailer


This is a new trailer for Star Stream I made the other day. Click "read more..." to see a larger version of it or click here to watch it on YouTube.






It's in HD for those that have it. I used all the original high resolution art from the comic so it looks great in full screen. I also created the music for the trailer. I don't really have a name for the song but for now I'm calling it 'Star Theme' (get it?)

Check it out and if you're watching it on the youtube site, rate it and leave a comment.

And don't forget to go check out STAR STREAM otherwise it would defeat the whole purpose of creating a trailer for the webcomic!

Star Stream: Characters


Some concept art for Star Stream.

This is Dishon and the little guy is his first lieutenant. They'll be around for a good part of chapter 2 and maybe longer...

One more note, the little triggers on their swords are for the blaster function :)

Star Stream: Page 15 Preview



Here's the finished colors. You can see I added the star map console behind General Grimm and made some adjustments to Bale's expression in panel 3 to reflect the "subtle shock" described in the script.

I still believe that doing sequentials is easier when doing it digitally. If for no other reason, it's easier to just draw everything on a layer rather than scanning in inks and having to fill in the lines on the "canvas."

I'm pretty sure it'll save a few trees working entirely in digital too.

Star Stream: 1st Sequential Promo



The image title of this is 1st penciled page promo, which just means it's the first promo featuring sequential pencils. In the actual story, it's page 15 (when counting the 6 page "prelude")

It's also the first time I've ever done a fully sequentialed (pencil, ink, color and letters) digitally. It was a lot easier than I thought it would be. Actually, I think I prefer digital to pencil and paper, although I admit there are still some areas where I still need the traditional medium like ships. For some reason, doing ships on the tablet doesn't work.

For anybody that might be curious, the hypothetical script (meaning I never actually wrote one) for this page would go something like this:

Panel 1. Establishing shot - Bale and Korbo are trekking through a dense forest in search of an alleged enemy base.

BALE: ...so the captain looks up at him with a serious look on his face and says "If I had a tranciever I wouldn't be hiding in a damn Graylax den, would I?"

KORBO: Harg!

Panel 2. Close up of General Grimm (on the bridge of his ship)

GRIMM: That's enough fooling around, Calistas. You should be coming up on the Braigon Base.

Panel 3. Bale looks up in shock (subtle) at the base.

BALE: Yeah I see it. Doesn't look very accessible though.

Panel 4. Korbo and Bale duck behind a knocked over tree log as they spy on the base. The base sits in the middle of a small open area surrounded by tree-lines.

KORBO: Transmission and sensor arrays. Looks like a radar outpost.

BALE: Could mean there's a bigger facility in a near-by system.

Star Stream: Ship Designs




Some of the ship designs I'm working on for Star Stream. Probably not gonna use the one on the bottom though - looks a little too much like Lone Star's Winnebago.

Star Stream: Character Designs




Another race from Star Stream. Of the designs I've posted so far, this one is the most likely to be changed. I'll probably shorten the heads a little.

The guy in the middle is the early combat design. I'm not in love with it right now. Fortunately, it'll be a while before these guys are introduced so I've got plenty of time to tweak the design.

Star Stream: My Newest Webcomic




If you follow my webcomics you've probably noticed that I haven't posted any new stuff on WebcomicsNation.com in over a month... That's mostly because I've been busy working on some new stuff.

The image above is the first (of hopefully many) promo for my next series Star Stream The plan is to get enough done in advance that I can update daily for a while before settling into a more comfortable schedule.

For now all I can say is that it's a Space Epic that follows the adventures of 8-10 primary characters as they come together to save the entire Universe... One of those characters is Bale Colistas (pictured above) - That's all you get for now :)

Check back daily for more information (it could come at any time) or to read more of my Zuda comics reviews. (I've got a few more of those to go for this month's competition!)
