I think this is really starting to shape up nicely. Two characters need fleshing out, the Spinward by Candlelight needs some windows on its lower half, the Whalesong needs a drawing, and maybe I should figure out what the Union fighter ships look like and draw them along with the Federacracy’s Tactical Pants. I’m sort of thinking maybe something that looks like a torso with arms so they can combine with the Pants when some kind of Outside Context Event makes them have to join forces. That might be too obvious, though. I’ll have to doodle around and see if it works. Other suggestions welcome.
Also a handful of episode synopses, including my ideas for the overarching plot that continues across seasons. Then I just print it out and stick it in a couple of presentation folders (one for each side, naturally) and it’s done. And I can get back to Rita.
Big thanks to Nick for suggesting that maybe the Union should be a bit goth, and kind of creepy-cute.
