Artist's Comments

In the name of all that is good and right in this world, FULL VIEW.

I started this...no joke....over a YEAR ago. Yes, you read that right, a YEAR AGO. Between the move, numerous pc/internet issues, being a full-time mom and working part-time....a friggin' year. Lame. :roll:

Anywho, this is a fanart, of sorts. About 3 years ago, a certain young man named *wraith11 (the fella playin' air guitar with the leg) befriended me with props on an old traditional drawing of Chidori, from Full Metal Panic. As time progressed, we discovered that we had several things in common, from a seriously varied love of music, to a rabid love of anime/manga, to an even more rabid love of (almost) all things automotive. He's been there for me, as a friend, more times than I can count. He's spent a lot of time trying to help me learn some perspective in drawing. Those that know me know that I suck at bg's, so this is monumental for me. While this is NOWHERE NEAR how much he rocks, I hope he enjoys my humble little tribute anyway.

All comments and critique are VERY much appreciated, you have no idea.

Cheers. :ahoy:

P.S. Points to whoever can tell me where I got the title, and if you can name all 4 albums next to the turntable. Some of you may want to look up the word "turntable" first. It used to play records, not just scratch them. :nod:

The poster taped to the computer bank is Headspace, by *wraith11, a DD winning masterpiece, thank you so much. ;)
Also, many thanks to *redheadstock for the awesome Tech brushes, *z-design for the Z-design Tech brushes set(s), ~WuRklash for the Big Brushes 200 Tech Brushes set, ~hawksmont for the Bubbles brushes, and also to ~thesuper for the Isometric Shapes II custom shapes set as well as Sea Creatures, and ~See-Create for the Car logos custom shapes set. :phew: I think that's everyone.

Edit June 6, 09: Changed border a little.

I love all the detail in the background and the robot/girl in the middle is REALLY well drawn. Seriously, it's, as good as I can see, perfect!!

There's so much to see in this piece, it's awesome =]

Great job and well worth the wait!!

If you have attempted Alchemy by drawing an array, clapping your hands, or snapping your fingers, paste this in your signature.

WOW. Takara, I'm offically impressed. The colours are fantastic and I love the concept. I wish I could critique you, but it would be bad news. XD So, I just want you to know that I think you are terrific.

-I wish I had something good to put in my signature. Alas, nothing.

I love art trades, by the way.

Wow! Such a beautiful, complex picture. :]
Loving all the little tributes, too. Noticing Haruhi, Pink Floyd, and... is Don't Panic a reference to Hitchhiker's Guide? :D :heart:

Kirk: Spock, you want to know something?, Everybody's Human.
Spock: I find that remark... insulting.

Star Trek VI

...best use for a cryo tank EVER =P

Mate, I freakin' LOVE it, totally worth the multitude of issues from when you started till now. Feel good to have it done? Seriously mate, wow, love all the little details, especially the figure shelf up the top... the wood finish looks so out of place compared to the high-techness of everything else in the room =P Sadly I only got "Dark Side of the Sun" ^^;

Weiredly though, the bit that keeps drawing my eye is the sky and mountains out the window... sorta reminds me of something halfway between "The Fifth Element" and the covers our our series of "Foundation" books :D

Sooo many pop-culture references :D

Been awhile since we did this, but this totally deserves it, have a case or two :ahoy:
