The Half Way Point

Well folks, I've reached the half way point in the script for FLIGHT CAPTAIN HURRICANE, and although the finished art for this segment is still several months away, I can already see Sandy's beautiful designs for it.

We're moving closer and closer to submitting FCH to Zuda, and my confidence is growing more and more with each passing day.

A little help goes a long way.

I'd like to thank the Royal Air Force Museum and Chris Yeoman for their assistance in researching FLIGHT CAPTAIN HURRICANE. For a story set in World War 2, I needed to be as accurate as possible in descriptions of planes, squadrons, colors, and well, just about everything.

Chris supplied me with images of the exact model of Whitney's Hurri, and the RAF supplied more details about the squadron markers. Thanks to all!

My son asked me early on in the research why I was being so detail oriented. My answer was simple: "It's World War 2, and it's one of the most researched and studied conflicts ever! If I say there are Hawker Hurricanes in the South Pacific, there'd BETTER be Hurri's in the South Pacific! People will know!"

Searching for FLIGHT CAPTAIN HURRICANE

Scott Fisher, a British author, and I dreamed up this concept last year and started to flesh it out as a mini, but the concept has been retooled as a webcomic. Twenty screens are outlined, but now the exhaustive search for an artist has begun.

This is where I ask the tough questions, mainly dealing with the pure look of the series. Most of the time I have a firm idea of what I'm looking for, visually. And FLIGHT CAPTAIN HURRICANE isn't any different.

I just have to find the right artist.
