One thing that you are very good at is use of colours, especially in creating a mood. The colours here are at the same time both calm and...maybe lonely? I don't know if that's right, but I'm not very good with words.

I'm seriously repeating myself here but you're getting me so damn well. Exactly, that was what I was going for. That he's floating there in peace and quiet but at the same time I thought it would be cool if I could convey a feeling of rather extreme loneliness and disconnectness from other people on the first page. Like a rare, precious specimen in a laboratory not meant to merge in the 'normal' world.
You got me so inspired with this that I'll go and stretch that paper right now.
