Guture Bike
I wanted to share this piece that I did a while ago. The concept behind the piece is that it's a cyberpunk future where everyone has their body integrated with some form of transportation.
I was listening to a lot of different electronic music when I did it and I had recently read some great cyberpunk books like Neuromancer and Virtual Light by William Gibson.
I started by doing a pencil drawing on paper but the rest was done in photoshop. I think I went a little heavy on the texture, haha.
I've been really happy with the Steem community so far! Pretty soon I'm planning on uploading pages from my graphic novel exclusively on Steemit.
Hope you like it! :)

Oh one more thing that I forgot to mention: The bike has got a fetus because they incubate baby humans inside the machines before they upgrade them to be cybernetic.

Ayooo, this is dope. Lovely bike <3. I’m not sure if you are familiar with Akira or not, but if you haven’t seen it yet, then you’re in for a treat because this bike belongs in that world.

Akira was definitely one of the big inspirations for this even though I hadn't read it yet!
Wow, awesome. I love the dystopien atmospere over it. The colours and the shadow work is great, and the expressions on their faces fantastic. Well done.
