Reminds me of the cover for the anime called Space Brothers

WOw, great job! It looks awesome

Thanks man, worked on this 14 hours non-stop. It really paid off

He's looking for the rocket, it appears to be missing.

He's just looking at the clear skies as he approaches the plane he'll be flying

Beautiful work, and a beautiful song.

Thank you!

That song came out while I was learning to fly in RL. It's held a special place in my heart ever since.

The checklist is the pre-takeoff checklist for, IIRC, a Beech model 55 Baron. One of the band members was learning to fly in it, and that was recorded during his first solo. (Must have been nice to have had enough money to solo in a Baron...expensive airplanes, those.)

I kinda felt it was like that. It sounds like a very personal song, with double meaning. Classic Gilmour writing.

Funny enough, those last verses made me recall "Sled Driver"

"One moonless night, while flying a routine training mission over the Pacific, I wondered what the sky would look like from 84,000 feet if the cockpit lighting were dark. While heading home on a straight course, I slowly turned down all of the lighting, reducing the glare and revealing the night sky. Within seconds, I turned the lights back up, fearful that the jet would know and somehow punish me. But my desire to see the sky overruled my caution, I dimmed the lighting again. To my amazement, I saw a bright light outside my window. As my eyes adjusted to the view, I realized that the brilliance was the broad expanse of the Milky Way, now a gleaming stripe across the sky. Where dark spaces in the sky had usually existed, there were now dense clusters of sparkling stars Shooting stars flashed across the canvas every few seconds. It was like a fireworks display with no sound. I knew I had to get my eyes back on the instruments, and reluctantly I brought my attention back inside. To my surprise, with the cockpit lighting still off, I could see every gauge, lit by starlight. In the plane's mirrors, I could see the eerie shine of my gold spacesuit incandescently illuminated in a celestial glow. I stole one last glance out the window. Despite our speed, we seemed still before the heavens, humbled in the radiance of a much greater power. For those few moments, I felt a part of something far more significant than anything we were doing in the plane. The sharp sound of Walt's voice on the radio brought me back to the tasks at hand as I prepared for our descent."

I've closed my eyes, I knew what I had to draw.

One of my favorite songs from one of my favorite bands
Good stuff.
