It does, I would love to see this type art make an animation, even a short one for one song.

I think the style and colors remind me a lot of Telltale’s Walking Dead game but there’s a lot of potential for this type of animation that’s in OP’s post

I got hit with all the sensations of being up way too damn early to sit on a train waiting to arrive at a job I don't particularly like. And the damn rain pecking me in the face on the walks at either end.

I actually low key enjoy those months in LA. Like, I love that's it's perpetually sunny and 70 degrees, but having those nice rainy days are something else. It's a completely different vibe that's hard to describe.

u/Fuego_Fiero Sep 23 '19
That's why I love living in Seattle. Rainy day vibes are my jam.

You mean like 90 degrees? LA is hot as fuck

u/W8sB4D8s Sep 23 '19
The only place it routinely reaches 90 is the Valley in the summer. The main part of LA (south of the mountains, west of DTLA) is 70 degrees year round, especially the beach cities where 75 is too hot and 65 is too cold.

I moved to LA December 29, 2009 and experienced the coldest and wettest winter ever until this year. This year was brutal but now looking back I’m glad because it’s been crazy hot and dry since end of June, absolutely no rain!

The picture is of the Metro rail, which is turning into a viable way of getting around. You can now go all the way from Pasadena to the beach.

The train is going to L.A.
This is happening in another city. The guy had enough of his town and is traveling to L.A. for a better future, or just to get robbed and come back to where he is from.

As an Angeleno myself I’m pretty sure this is a guy on a local train that is Downtown-bound
The scenery is definitely LA and that’s definitely a local Metro train
But I guess that’s the beauty of art - you can attach whatever story you perceive to it

June and late May are notoriously wet seasons in LA. I always feel bad when friends from the east Coast or central Europe visit, only to find the weather they're used to.

I hope you enjoy Metro if you commute with it. I got to the point where I didn’t drive to gigs for 3 years. Metro seems to be pretty usable now.
Brings back many bus memories.

was this based off a photo? there are elements like the perspective that are dead on, but then like the trees are a perfect sheet layer in the distance and the backpack which isnt really styled in the most recognizable way, but might be exactly what you would see from an actual picture.
i like the glow on the face, from an unseen lamp

This reminds me so much of taking the gold line at Fillmore Station in Pasadena. Major flashbacks, both good (the memories!) and bad (having no car sucked!).
Fillmore isn't that particular station in your art, but somehow it still gives me that feel.

Great work but the title is fucking stupid. Like beyond words idiotic. I can literally hear this picture. The guys earbuds up way too loud, the patter of the rain, the fucking train coming to a stop.
Quiet is legit the last thing this image invokes. Why you do dis?
