Back on Track
Lee and I (Scott) have been giving the project a little breathing room over the past few months, but we're back on track and have some exciting revelations coming up. Over the past few weeks we have been meeting and discussing the continuity of the story and motives of the characters (mainly the President and Zephyr). While exploring their motives and roles in the story, we have crafted a more stable foundation for the characters and story in order to draw the readers into the world in an intimate way and bring an emotional connection to each of the characters. Stay tuned for more details.
Merry Christmas!

Vissy's Conceptual Clothing Line
These are the start of our Conceptual Clothing Line that Vissy has to offer in book two. Many of her clothing appears all over the world in Project A/D for she is a fashion designer for the Colonies. Drawn by a good friend of mine, Conny Abrica, hopefully she will agree to help with the rest of the costumes for our book. More to come later.....

Vincents Conceptual Weapon Design
Here is a concept page of Vincents equipment. Scott and I came up with this concept after designing Vincents characteristics. See, Vincent is a very straight-forward person, so his equipment must also be very straight-forward. On this concept page, there is his sniper rifle/shotgun design (one of many concepts of Vincents main weapon), his weapon holster, and a conceptual design of the ammunition. If you look closely at his weapon, there is the sniper rifle on the top part and the shotgun on the bottom. There is a selector lever on the gun that switches the two and also two triggers to activate the two separately. Also, another great and thoughtful invention Scott and I created was a mono-pod for the weapon. This can allow Vincent to be as agile as possible while being quite accurate. On his weapon holster, there are two main levers on the front side. The one on his upper shoulder is pulled when he is on the move. This positions his rifle on his back securely and tightly, allowing him no worries about his weapon flapping about and getting in his way. Now, the lever on the bottom by his waist is pulled when he is in action. This releases his rifle freely for operation and is loose enough to give leeway. The levers operate on a track and are secured tightly so they are not in the way. The top lever is pulled completely until in the desired position, and the bottom is only pulled once then retracted to original position to give a quick and effective operation. Last is the conceptual ammunition I designed for Vincent. To allow him to carry as much ammo as possible and also less weight as possible, I came up with the idea of a expandable bullet. From its original state, the bullet is small and compact. But, after the hammer impacts the back of the bullet, a small chamber inside the bullet explodes a strong liquid to the second part, then separating the two. Once the bullet exits the chamber, the bullet expands due to the liquid and becomes bigger and less unforgiving. Scott and I will display more concepts soon after the full designing of these. Hope you enjoy and please let us know what you think.
