I’m so excited to share some of the work I did for my personal passion project/Cartoon Network intern pitch, GIRL GANG! (Ideally I’m hoping to eventually publish it as a graphic novel/webcomic!)
The story takes place in a future where ocean levels have risen and covered the Earth, leaving only chains of islands where continents used to be. On an island in the Pacific, a gang of street girls fight to survive the oppression of the Empire, a civilization from across the ocean that is on a mission to colonize and conquer all the world’s remaining land.
Some brief character blurbs about the main gang: Miya– the quiet and somewhat shy leader of the gang who talks little but packs a massive punch with her baseball bat; Emi– the gang’s getaway driver and auto specialist and the disowned daughter of a wealthy Inner Circle family; Yuyu– the black market dealer and scavenger with a bubbly personality and an obsession with 200-year-old anime artifacts; and Blue– a Muy Thai fighter who values honor and justice above all else, and defected from her previous gang when Miya saved her life.
On the opposing side, Riza’s gang of wealthy and entitled elitist Inner Circle girls are out to wreak havoc in the Outskirts, and end up clashing with Miya and her gang as a result. Riza is the daughter of a highly influential politician and believes herself to be superior to “Outskirts trash,” while Krystal (the Empire’s number one teenage pop idol), Jin (a cyber hacker) and Momo (a skilled wrestler who sticks with Riza out of a desire to belong) enable her to put the Outskirts in what she perceives to be their rightful place.
That’s all for now but I hope you all enjoy!! I love this project and I can’t wait to fully realize it sometime in the near future. (ALSO: IF YOU WANNA DO FANART- GO RIGHT AHEAD, JUST PROMISE YOU’LL SHOW ME!!) Love, Kat!
Looking for an original name for your gemsona, one that a dozen people haven’t already used for their own designs?
Here are 400 suggestions.
Mostly
pure minerals, plus a mineraloid and a batch of rocks (this is
canon-compatible – pearl is a mineraloid, and lapis lauzuli is a rock).
Fluorescent minerals get a split-screen view: normal light on one side,
glowing on the other.
I checked whether they’d been used by
searching “steven universe [name]” on Google Images. Can’t guarantee
that they’re 100% unused as gemsonas – just that, at the time of
searching, they were too rare for Google.
…which was a serious surprise in some cases. There’s an IRL mineral called lulzacite and nobody’s jumped on that? Or on the design potential of antlerite? Doctor Who fans, who wants to take tennantite?
