ASTERIA:

Asteria: Legend of the Fallen Star, is a sci-fi fantasy graphic novel series created and written by Morgan Middleton. This series follows Celeste, a 14-year old high school student whose life is suddenly upended when she’s transferred to a galactic military boarding school, confronting training, trials, and new hidden abilities.

In August 2021, I became the character designer, cover artist, and interior artist (pencils and inks) for this series. At the point of creating this first volume, it was the first and longest graphic novel project I’ve been a part of, giving me a uniquely difficult challenge, and helping me improve my skills as an artist in a short amount of time. Excerpts, character designs, and cover art are shown below. Colors of interior art by the talented Bruna Belfort. As production of volume 2 have already begone, I’m excited to see how Celeste’s story develops! Volume 1 available now!
