Another old idea that just keeps resurfacing in my mind. I’ve always wanted a story that melds the epic space opera fantasy of Star Wars, and the kitschy, campy spy adventures of the pre-Craig James Bond films (no shade on Craig, his films are their own kind of magic).
The TV series Andor has scratched so much of my space spy itch that this story ended up on the backburner for a while, but I think there’s still a fun, original story to be told in there.
Under the Nova trio:
Nova Derringer, the lead character. An interstellar spy whose misplaced idealism is about to collide with the grisly reality of the job.

Some fun ideas for various lead characters in the story. Honestly, if I could make a living just designing alien characters all day, I’d be happy for the rest of my life.

Some expressions and poses for Nova as I tried to pin down her personality and physicality.
