Queer sci-fi comic collab: Rana Janaloka
I have a webcomic idea that I'd love to turn into a comic. The main character is a fat (trans) woman, so understanding about fat anatomy is a must! I prefer to work with a fellow Indonesian, but it's not a must.

Description
My name is Arka WR, and I am a queer writer and artist from Indonesia. I have written 2 novels, Vartika Tatwa and We Could Always Begin Again, and currently working on a webcomic titled The Firewalker. You can check my past and present works [here].I am looking for an artist to work together with me to realize my new story, Rana Janaloka. It's a queer sci-fi story about Talmar Andaru Pratiwi, an adopted daughter of a cargo ship captain Talmar Throvain.
After a cargo delivery gone wrong, their crew met with Prince Ahrean of the Craernoid, a draconian being able to shapeshift into their humanoid form. The crew also somewhat got involved with a rebellion, which had been fighting against Zolgriex Imperial Family.
The outline is somewhere around 15-20 chapters, with 10 to 15 pages a chapter. The comic will be published as both webcomic and PDF comic. The comic will be uploaded to GlobalComix and we will share the revenue earned from it.
I would prefer to work with a fellow Indonesian, but it's not a must. I also would prefer to work with an adult for legal reasons. You also NEED to be okay with queer themes, as they will be very prevalent in the series. Having a Discord is a must, as we will be using it to communicate about the project.
Like I said on the brief, Andaru is fat, so you need to be familiar with fat anatomy. You also need to be familiar at designing unique alien species and other sci-fi stuff like spaceships, space ports, alien planets, etc. As an artist myself, I probably can help you visualize them if needed.
Attached below is a ref sheet I made about the characters and villains in the story. You can use the ref below as a very loose guideline to make a design of your own.
Please let me know if you have more questions, or are interested to join the project.
