Firing an M2 from the hip without a barrel while wearing a Contra tank isn’t normal

Razor nights and bitter days by =torture-device     ”This work is something that was kicked off by my feelings of revitalization in the bestest sci-fi genre ever, cyberpunk. Man, once you go cyberpunk, you’re forever a cyberpunk.

It’s also my first foray in somewhat matte-painting thing, as it’s the only means by which I think I can create a believable cityscape backdrop. I went for something classic, old-school - Asia, neon, clunky guns, implants and cybernetics galore, flu masks and organ shops. It’s the most correct stuff that I now can do to translate my vision of a true cyberpunk setting, and I feel that this picture - which I present in original and filtered colors, since I see them both valid - is a major artistic breakthrough of mine, in terms of technical skill.  It’s my tribute to a genre and vision that pretty much shaped a lot of what I am today - a work of love and dedication, if you will.

another DUNE post.  let’s call it part II. i still have a final batch.
