HOWDY Y'ALL?

Aaah I'm so excited we finally got to this scene! 

A cool trivia: this was the very first scene I  thought of when I decided I needed to rewrite Up and Ahead back in 2016. I kind of focused on the feeling it gave me - two strangers riding on a cargo wagon, sharing a mixture of excitement over the unknown (Steban) and also a great discomfort over stepping over boundaries he never did before (Martin). And that child-like mischievousness and adventurousness that I wanted to capture from this scene kind of set the tone for a great part of the story. I even posted a sketch of this back in 2018, you can see it here! 

It's such a joy to see it finally coming true! The soft drink they're about to enjoy is CoCassis, a back currant soda me and Kryat designed specially for this scene, hehe. 

You can guess I'm very excited to hear your thoughts on this!! You guys are awesome and I can't thank you enough for giving me the chance of telling this story! 

EPIC background 3D renders by Kryat

I hope you all have a wonderful day!

I love and the emotion this page Steban is celebrating a victory drink while Martin just thinks he’s crazy. I think Cocassis bottle is really creative love this page.

Already loving their interactions! Can’t wait to see what goofy things they talk to each other about 😜. Great page Skailla 👍!

I'd like to try some of that CoCassis, it sounds like pretty good stuff! That bottle looks very appealing too. Props to you guys on such great prop design! The backstory behind this scene is so interesting too! It's amazing to think you had the idea for it in your head for so long, and to see how much things have developed between then and now. Six years! I can't believe 2016 was that long ago! Absolutely stunning looking scene! It's so awesome how well everything comes together here - Jellie Beam's incredible background work, Kryat's 3D rendering, and your drawings of Steb and Martin. It's just mindblowing what you guys are doing!

GOD SKAI I LOVE THIS SO MUCH! the feel of adventure with the vast landscape and the open tracks ahead.. i can’t wait to live life like that one day!

Should that be whiskey in that bottle? Definitely. Is Martin going to make it to all the other normal passengers? Definitely not. The backgrounds are gorgeous as usual, and Martin's expressions are so dynamic

I have a grammar suggestion if you’re interested. For the last panel, replacing “sit” with “seat” would be a more common phrasing. Love the series so far!
