Description An assignment exploring the idea of virtual reality. The "virtual reality" I chose was the world of the dead. I came up with a very sketchy concept involving near-future technology enabling someone with blackmarket neural headgear to interface with the world beyond this one. One detail was that someone attempting such an interface would link up to the brain of a dead animal as a gateway into the next world. The animal would then act as either his guide or servant.

I am fully aware how many movies and books I stole ideas from for this one (Flatliners, Neuromancer, and White Noise to name a few). It was a school assignment. Sue me.

Oh, yeah, and: Oil painted illustration with substantial Photoshop manipulation.

Wow this is great.
The only things that came to my mind that i don't like are :
- The two high contrasted colors, contrasted by the fact that they are not enough mixed to my opinion. For example, i like a lot the colors on the head of the guy
- The background that has too precise lines in comparison with the rest of the drawing. We have an opposition like the classical : photo with drawing.
- I don't know, but i see no more details on the cimetary, than graves, but i think you liked it like this.
(this was great that the helmet doesn't highlight more, this is great like this )

Cool deviation, yop.
