Description
This is why I haven't uploaded much over the past five months. I've been working on some things. This is some things.Started working on this on 3 August 2007, at 5:59 pm
Finished it on 23 January 2008, at 8:40 pm.
All done with Microns 005 to 05. 98% of it was done on the Metro on my commute four days a week.

Do the trains actually move where you live because if this was in England it wouldn't be possible to do this without making loads of mistakes? Great work though. I salute you!

They move. It's easiest to sit in a sideways-facing seat and hold the sketchbook away from my body, resting my hand on the pad as a stipple. Β That way, the paper moves more in time with my drawing hand than with the rest of my body. Β Also, because it's so much dots the chances of making errors is reduced. Β If I were trying to draw lines it would be more difficult.
Thanks!

You have adapted your drawing technique very well to train travel. We don't have sideways-facing seats on trains where I live but I think I understand how you do it and how mistakes while stippling are irrelevant anyway. Thanks for the explanationΒ

Wow.Β
I just got a smile on my face finding this and viewing it and said outloud, "Wow! That's f**kin' awesome!!"
This is amazing work. I love dark surreal work like this.

The detail and contrast is awesome in this. I love stippling and finding other people who use that method. The macabre elements work really well; it's not too much
Out of curiosity, did you get comments on this from other commuters? I always felt weird drawing in public because I'm kind of shy and generally people are curious about what one is drawing XD.

I usually have my music going in my ear buds when I work on the train, and keep my head down. Β It discourages strangers from talking to me. Β I am pretty shy in public as well.

It's almost unnerving, but really amazing.
I really enjoyed this, keep up the awesome work!

I'm not really sure. A copy wouldn't really look that good. Hell, the difference between the original and this scan of it you're seeing is pretty surprising.
But I'm flattered you asked!

my love would just adore this!! I understand what you mean about the copy, hmm. Do let me know if you ever decide to sell the original, because this is mesmerizing!

Thank you. I've been staring at it for months!
