Description Just a quick painting practice.

If you've read the graphic Novel "Watchmen"
you'll probably recognize what this scene is.
(or not, because I made it look like shit.)

Referenced directly from the actual comic panel.


Watchmen (C) Alan Moore, Dave Gibbons

Awesome, your drawing of the floating crystal palace dealy is unmistakable, awesome job. The watchmen is a pretty sick comic or "graphic novel".

whoa! awesomeness.

nabasa ko ang watchmen pero di ko naalala ang panel na may ganito. not your fault, though. ibang scenes lang talaga ang na retain sa akin, like you comic book stand scenes, ung pirate story, ung alien 'crash', ung scenes nila night owl at ng babaeng hero, scenes na nandon si cap manhattan, at lalo na ung mga sequences na nandon si rorshack (sp?).

teka, kay ozymandias ba yan?

Ito yung part na nag tour sa Mars si Dr. Manhattan with Laurie.
Mas malaki pa yung original na panel (3/4 ng page) cropped ito.

ah doc pala hindi cap. ah un pala un. weird sequence. ung walang linear time concept. naalala ko pa ang scene na yon, pero mali na ang memory ko, pagkakaalala ko kasi sa moon un. kelangan ko nang bisitahin uli ang CBRs ko.
