So apparently Chase @paper-mario-wiki​ is and always has been the antagonist of my sci-fi story...

BET YOU THOUGHT I WASN’T GONNA FOLLOW THROUGH, 

BINCH

Okay this time I’m gonna talk about Steele because his design was actually the weirdest path to a design. Specifically because like I needed a fourth to work off of Blues as the other completely original boi in the comic (Blues) so he sort of came about mostly more as an aesthetic more than a like story thing? I mean I guess I had his Cyborg-ness planned out, and I wanted for myself to make him work as an inverse to S.A.S.O and Eden by having like a human core (even if his skin kinda looks metallic in and of itself. The funny thing is that in so many ways he’s essentially the Pirate version of Alex, but he like gets along much better with his crew than Alex does for the exact reason that Alex doesn’t. Steele is so reserved and just watches things go down in a way that his friends value. He allows for his captain’s impulsivity, he takes things seriously enough for Jasper (GOD the fact that JASPER is the one taking things seriously in this comic.) and he’s insanely protective of their Babby Navigator, Blues who I guess is basically Heleont?

Also I used...much more green in these designs than I thought I would.

Hey! I wish I could say work on this is what made me not upload here for...*checks calendar* 2 months not counting that one hs post a couple weeks ago. Alas, we all know that’s not true. Luckily, I’ve been in a comics class for a semester so I ACTUALLY HAVE CONTENT TO JUSTIFY THE HIATUS.

First off, back of the fleet takes a different perspective. 

(As always, way too much detail under the cut.)

SO, if you read the tags, you’ll notice a familiar name, AND a bunch of things that look like that name but slightly changed because Jase’s name never FUCKING MADE SENSE!

Yeah so Jase/Jasper/Jazz has had a bit of a makeover since we last saw her. For one thing, she has Vitiligo now, for one thing. She also has that cool ass prosthetic that I had to make so fucking sure WOULDN’T RESEMBLE LORD ENGLISH’S IN THE SLIGHTEST. Anyway. If you’re wondering how this fits into BOTF canon (which you obviously are, you clicked the read more) I don’t fully know. I think Jase has already met the Brigadier crew at this point, probably. Like the impetus of this work as a longer form thing definitely calls for us to meet the Brigadier crew. Maybe she’s on like sabbatical after she frees Copper from prison? Yeah. Nothin’ quite like a sabbatical after you do crimes. Anyway, the next updates will have an introductions to other characters. Like Copper, and Blues, and Steele.
