Hugo Earhart Development
Anter Boy hit $47,000 last night! On Monday we were at $40k and I announced our stretch goal to reach $6ok by the end of the campaign. Hard to believe that we'd be bumping up against $50k by the weekend! You guys are amazing, and I'm working my hardest to make this book the best ever.
I'm cooking up some new incentives and rewards, so keep an eye out for an announcement next week sometime.
I wanted to share with you some development art for the Hugo Earhart story. First up, a couple finished pages from the story:
This
spread shows a bunch of the characters and vehicles that were the most
exciting part of the development process. Below are some of the first
Hugo drawings. I loved the idea of a boy flying on a mini sperm whale ,
and wondered where it would go. And if you're going to have a flying
whale, you might as well add a flying pig sidekick.
Once I got more comfortable with the designs I decided to do a final piece of them together.
Hugo
encounters a Sylph Woman while on his delivery job and is struck with
her beauty. The Sylph were the original whale riders and ruler of the
skies before the advent of machined flight. Here's some sketches of her.
And if you know me I love my flying machines so figuring these
boltships out was a lot of fun. On the bottom is one of the massive
capital ships of the of the Green Army.
Thanks for looking at this and please pass this along with your friends.
Actually, speaking of that, I'd like to know how you heard about this project. Was it directly from me? Word of mouth from friend? Social media of some kind? If you heard about it from someone's blog, post a link to it, I'd like to thank that person.
Thanks!
