"Old World Underground where are you now?
Subtract my age from the mileage on my speeding heart, credit cards...
Accelerate. Accumulate. Looked for you downtown
Wound up in a movie with no story,
Now it's late and you are no where to be found."

Metric - "IOU"


This one has been in the works for a long time, sitting at 95%, finally completed with new tools and recent madskillz


...The pirates mount the highest precipice they can manage and run off it. They float majestically over the rising, twisting vapor which lifts their chutes up above them. Convection cells in the steam cause them to levitate over the breaching nether for a stretch until the clutches of gravity abruptly seize them again at which point fall like stones plunked into the mist. Their chutes tug and flap furiously behind them. The light from above grows dimmer and dimmer as their foggy tempest becomes menacingly dark, then gains an eerie red glow from beneath. Objects start to race past [ghost bats, old baby carriage, toilet seat, horseshoes, whale skeletons, Gloärmpgnots, etc.], nearly hitting/impaling the Pirates. Then the racing winds and vapor subside and the pirates plop out of the turbulence into a grimly illuminated cloudscape with a vast, looming depth below. Boiling heat waves give the distinct feeling of being deep underground and distort their view. As they drift through the sinister skies, they begin to make out a gargantuan torso with a demon’s head, and as their descent is magnetized towards the colossal obsidian horns, they realize a cityscape is unfolding atop the skull below them.

Oh, wow. Damn, that's some fine work.

I just love the warm bleeding atmosphere this background conveys...
