The_Mecha_Genesis Vol.1 Launch - Chromacon 2017 by Aleks Sakowski

On April the 8th I launch my first graphic novel at Chromacon 2017.  Big thanks to all those who came out to support The_Mecha_Genesis and all the other artist exhibiting. It was a blast. Big thanks to Elena, Link, Allan, Henry, Mike, Mukpuddy and everyone that bought a book. Glad to finally get it out there into your hands. Vol.1 is available online, and Vol.2 is in the works. Here are some photos from the launch. 

The building of the stands. I made these so they would just snap togeather with no glue. 

The building of the booth. Thanks to Henry Aitken for helping me set it up. A wild monkey appeard durring the build. 

My spot at Chromacon. At a less busy time so I could run around and check it all out myself. 

Building this booth gave me ideas for some designs for future volumes. Making the booth was part of building the world the Mecha_Genesis is set in. I wanted people to feel visually immersed in the world and enjoy it as an experience. I did not spend to much time on preping the booth but with a little more cash and a bit more planning the next one is going to be even more epic. Some details below.

The_Mecha_Genesis - Vol.1 by Aleks Sakowski

The_Mecha_Genesis Vol.1 is finally here. I will be launching the first volume on April the 8th at the Chromacon Indie Arts festival. The project has gone through many incarnations finally ending in this format - Each volume will consist of 25 character wikis.

From a far away time, in a place nearby, Earth and its cultures are far from what we are familiar with, and in some ways still just as recognizable in their complex beauty, and fabled flaws. The Mecha Genesis tells the story of how our future ancestors dealt with the evolution of intelligence transfiguring from carbon based life, to silicon based life.
