Uniques Issue 9 pg. 50

Finally got Uniques #9 done. It's a 53-page monster issue that we think of as the Season Finale for s.1 of The Uniques. It's an ongoing series (re: there will be tons more issues) but we think of it a lot like a television series in that there are definite series arcs along the way.

Here we go back to the Tomb - the secret lair of Ghost and Scout. This is the first good look at the Ghost Ship (even if you only see it from behind). Took a while to design, as I'm not great with vehicles. Comfort designed the cockpit, and it turned out pretty nice with all the final colors, lights, and those holographic monitors.

We had those before Avatar did, by the way. We started using holographic HUD images back in Uniques #8 which came out in November. So no "You copied James Cameron!!!" stuff, okay? We'll put up with "You copied Iron Man!!!" but not Avatar.

Oh, and Hope and Michael are back on the same rooftop where the team first met way back in issue #2. Same color scheme and everything. It's a nice callback, and while doing it we kept getting all sentimental.

We flipped the art chores again this issue, so I'm back to drawing the foregrounds, tech, and people while Comfort drew the backgrounds. Comf colored the foreground stuff and set up the lighting schemes while I colored the backgrounds and added textures. We split SFX pretty much 50/50.
