Version 3 and a New Artbook

Alive and kicking
We've changed and evolved since the inception of SatelliteSoda, and yet we managed to survive. One thing remains the same though, that spirit that pulls us together to form a force comparable to Voltron is alive and kicking. It's that same spirit that brings us to a new chapter in SatelliteSoda.

Change can be good
I remember Dylan bringing the subject up that he wasn't satisfied with v2 a couple of years ago. He grew out of it and thought that we should as well. I concurred and starting working on all types of mock ups, from the flashy to the spartan, and none really did it for me. Dylan was simultaneously working on a couple of concepts of his own.

And while some of the ideas that I came up with were somewhat out there, Dylan had a basic concept of what the site could be. I didn't want to kill the soul of SS so I thought of going back to Dylan's concepts and in true SatelliteSoda fashion a collaboration of sorts was born.

With his basic structure in place and some tinkering of my own, a new and improved and yet familiar face came to be. Through the entire process, everyone chipped in with ideas to improve the work that was being done. Eventually v3 was born. It's really like watching a child grow up in front of your eyes, yes things change but it's just a natural evolution that's taking place, inevitable but necessary (Even though this process took way longer than it should have.).

A book is born
And with that, we set off to create as much content for the new "sketchbook" which seems to be the most popular element to SatelliteSoda besides the forum. In doing so, our creative juices flowing, we entered the artistic battlegrounds once again with a force to be reckoned with in SatelliteSoda: Book Two. That's right a second one! And it's better than before. With help from special members from the forum and our combined willingness to try harder, this book is another step in our progression as an art-group. Here's a preview with a few images from the book:
