We are two sisters who often come
up with fun and unrealistic projects. Over the years we have tried to
write a novel, start a band, cake decorate, sew clothes, illustrate a
children's story book, incorporate photo shoots into our everyday life,
and other crazy things.Our most recent endeavor is creating a comic. At
first, we decided to make it a web comic based on a short story Laura
wrote. But the characters and the story were hard to work with. And
very cliche. BUT we (unusually) were not discouraged! We scrapped it
and went back to the drawing board. Now the story is much improved and
we actually have a few good starter designs and characters. Sooooo! We
introduce the crew of the Nestarican to the world! *bow* -Candice
Hey
there! Yep, you're going to have to live with the overly wordy-ness of
two girls. This comic started rather spontaneously. I was in a science
class, listening to a *ahem* very intriguing lecture, and doodled a
rough draft of Shelty for entertainment. I wrote down some brainstorm
stuff and for the rest of the day (and ever afterward), I was
scribbling like mad. My teachers, I'm sure, were rather irritated. =P I
finished the script a while ago, and have been toiling and shuffling
through revisions ever since. There are 6 main characters (a lot, I
know!) who act as our unlikely and rather befuddled heroes. Poor
things. I really do put them through the most abominable circumstances.
And of course, you need good villains as well. For this, 4
sophisticated (and not so sophisticated) characters have volunteered.
This story should be classified as "futuristic", but that just reeks of
blue speckled aliens and bad lighting. Rest assured, there are no
aliens here. But many guns, swords, explosives, cool technology, and
complicated social-political relations. Hope you enjoy! There is a
deviantart account just for the comic. The username is Nestaricancrew.
There, you can find some character sketches and updates(http://nestaricancrew.deviantart.com). We've also created a blog at the handy dandy site of blogger, and that has some loverly tidbits about the comic and what we do (http://the-nestarican.blogspot.com). -Laura
About us: Candice: I
guess you could call me the "artist". But please use the title
sparingly...it's a little intimidating. I draw and paint and splatter
and doodle and scribble and some people think it looks good. I could
argue otherwise, but I like to do it, so I don't. I'm 18, shy, and currently not studying anything except the real life. All in all, I'm a really normal person. My
favorite character is Jerev. And second comes the Ultarian Prime
Minister. I LOVE that villain. But my favorite person to draw is
Pepper. My blog: http://lifeslumps.blogspot.com My art: http://thelumpy.deviantart.com
Laura: Er...herm.
I'm supposedly the Author. This is only the 3rd time I've actually
finished any author-like endeavors, so you can assume that sunbeams are
comin' out of my ears. I'm 14, and I am a freshman in highschool. I don't really know if I'm shy or outgoing, or what.
=\ I love singing, good music,movies, plays, books, comics, guitar, and horses. Yes, I
know the horses thing is "so nine-yr old...", but I haven't outgrown it
yet...I hope I never do! I officially became a comic/anime nerd a couple
of months ago, and my bookmarks list has been bombarded ever since. I'd
say that I'm rather crazy, but even normal people say that, so I guess
you'd just have to know me to understand. My favorite
character...hermmm...I can't pick one! My favorite villain is definitely
Athalia. What can I say? Lady villains are just plain cool.
