"The wire and the vein"

It's been ages since I produced a wall, and even longer since my previous, but here's proof that I'm still here. XD
This was an idea I've had for a long time but never had the time to get to it, until recently that is...

I based the vector on this scan.
The rest of it and the background machine-thingy were just made up on the spot.

Brought it to photoshop to color/CG it up. I intentionally went for that 'dirty' look to help convey the atmosphere of this particular scene.

Total hours: a lot.
Total layers: a lot.

This is a spotlessly clean vector work. It is unique in its concept and layout, and there is a very nice harmony in the soft colours. Background has been well-crafted and everything flows together well with perfect shading and CG skills. Well done!

    Lovely vector work. Looks like you've got a knack for it. =D
    Very very well-done CG as well. I wish I could do that. It looks fabulous. *highlighted*

    I already commented and fav'ed this on AP but i'll do it again here, mostly because then i can stare at it again for a couple minutes as i form opinons :D

    I love that in a day and age when everyone around is using rich, vibrant colours, you decided to come out with this muted-toned piece. your soft style of CG-ing works perfectly here, and the vector is well done. The little details make this piece wonderful too - such as the writing by the plugs, etc :)

    Well done on this beautiful wall.

    This is very unique, everything seems to be gray and there was glow in couple of places in the face and the machine thingy.

    extremely well executed, great color palette and emotions.
    *high fives*

    i really love the murata style, but your work is so good without standing out the fact that the chara is a murata's drawing...
    i don't know how explaining this thing well, but deserves a lot of fav++
    *lol*
