I've mentioned chaz-fox's comic The Intergalactic Truckstop a few times before and have shown off some of the random character ideas that I’ve created based on the information that he’s provided on his various art locations, but this is a rather big and odd idea that’s kind of an amalgamation of several different ideas I’ve had.

I always enjoy the stories that follow a ragtag group of space travelers who are trying to make a living for themselves that result in adventures or shenanigans, like Outlaw Star or Firefly (which I really need to watch beyond the pilot), so I have come up with ideas for such groups, and somehow they kind of came together here in the ITS setting.

This is Alexander Nebula, the human captain of the "Atlantis" and his team. He had served in the military for a few years before he decided to leave for "personal reasons" and started doing freelance work, joining with his friend Kral.

Nebula is actually based off an older character of mine in both his surname and his appearance, it seemed right to bring him back in within this setting.

His picture here though really bugs me though. While I like the design concepts, the art itself makes me twitch, I just could not get his arms and shoulders to really look right to me.

This is an odd idea, but I had fun coming up with the concepts. I just don’t know if anything more will come of this; I would like to flesh out the characters some more we’ll have to see.
