Heh, that was just an april fools joke, but you know... I think I'll redraw this one day, because this picture gave me an idea.

Well, there was an animation as if there is some kind of data transfer and the it was like sketching something and then it showed to you one of few random images and gave it a random title.

But for me this picture reminded me the things I've seen while I worked at the shipyard, so... somehow this thing really caught my mind a bit.

You worked at a shipyard? That sounds really interesting. Why don't you post journals telling stories? I like the way you write, I'd gladly read them.

Well, I worked there as a turner, so most of the time I was just standing in front of my machine. And I don't know if it's really interesting to hear about what I've been through there. You see, our shipyard is half-abandoned since the 90s, so it was something between the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. and Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou. Just imagine: huge shop, dozens of machines... and only about ten or fifteen of them are working. Place is semidark, with spots of gentle yellow light around the machines. And it was cold at winter, temperature was going down to 14-16 C. In fact there was a lot of stories, but it's hard for me to write long texts in English. I want to draw some episodes of it someday.

I wonder how will you react if I'll say that currently I work as a CNC-lathe operator at the aircraft building factory, the flankers' nest...

That shipyard so awesome and cozy Half-abandoned industrial things fascinate me for some reason. I was born in a small industrial town, right across the street from a big steel factory where a lot of family worked. I guess it kind of sticks with you.

Ah... aircraft building is very awesome too, but then of course it depends on what those aircraft are used for

Well, it is, but we had no tools and our machines were very old, and people were old-minded. Shops were cold and the roof was leaking. Still, I liked this place. Because I have half-abandoned industrial places too. They are part of my reality.

And I'm making combat aircrafts, Su-27's family and T-50. Making money on pain, hatred, death and destruction.

You have to admit it would be a great game/anime/book setting  

Yeah, combat aircraft, that's what I was afraid of. Well... it's not my place to question people's way of earning their bread.

Yes, I can't deny that I really want to write or to draw something based on my daily reality, something that could change people's minds, to make them take a new look on what they are doing, to see miracles and adventures in their everyday lifes. Well... maybe some day...

And if you're born on the Far East, you don't have a lot of options to choose from.
