Description This is something I did for an anime convention.

Don't bother trying to prove your mad language skillz by trying to read any of the signs. They're all gibberish. For all I know, I've offended someone's dear old mom.

The composition is perfect. I love the action lines of the train and the girl. I also love how the layering adds depth. The Japanese signs are great. One of them is a swear word, the other predicts the end of the world (or it would be awesome if it did). 
To answer your question below,
"Porqué lees esto? Mira al dibujo!"
No, wait that's Spanish...

Cheers!

Loved the colouring. The subway looks great! Th BG is amazing. I like the train and the blur of its movement. Nice job! Welldone!

I'm just glad the signs aren't in Greek. I have spent plenty a time trying to read signs with Greek characters in rpgs only to find out they're all gibberish. Sometimes they make some funny words though lol.

Anyway, back to the point... your environment drawing skills are top, dude. I'm envious!

Heh, It's all greek to me.

And thanks for your kind words.

Don't worry, the signs are mostly gibberish, at least the ones I checked out closely. The pic itself is neat- I really like your use of perspective in the scene, and the action and motion of the girl (esp. her hair and camera).

Thanks.



Oh wait, that means you read Japanese.

Cool.

I may have to hit you up for future drawings, like how to write jokes like "Why are you trying to read this, look at the action." into the background. That would rock.

And thanks for the comments.

Hey, you're welcome. I'm a bit rough with my Japanese, but I can read it alright.
