Nicole's Ark concept drawings by kitfox-crimson on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

The only reason I'm putting these up instead of the first page of Nuzlocke is that I took the day off work today and I have a file I need on my drive at work so I can't start it yet.

So, my plan for after the Nuzlocke is to do the next comic in my line-up, Nicole's Ark. As the name suggests, it has some religious overtones, but it has ABSOLUTELY NO SUPER GOD CREATURES, ULTIMATE POWERS OR MAGICAL ASSERY as I have decided (and it took me far too long to figure this out) those things make for a very unbalanced and relatively uninteresting story.

So I'm getting back to my roots and going with pure science fiction. Robots only. And the only magic is my staple of anti-gravity power because to hell with not using that.

Here are some concept designs I've been working on for some of the machines. There are Stryders (of course) although it's set about 50 years after the conclusion of Restored Generation so everything is a bit more advanced. The humanoid machines are special ones. No prize for guessing what they represent. Steele and Nicole have remained mostly unchanged since I last drew them as they appear in this comic (back in 2005)

Incidentally, this is my oldest story concept I've attempted recently. I found some sketches for it in my high school diary recently.

The actual story I won't get into here, but it's going to be drawn much like that 'Second Coming' comic, in that I want it to be my cutting edge comic quality. It will be relatively short so I will actually be able to finish it in decent time XD
