Artist's Comments

- Hostilities endure and our current situation harbours little relief, for the once safe trade routes that occupied this chasm have vanished, smothered and oppressed. Perhaps one day my retreat will return. Perhaps one day the comforting light that gushed and bubbled in the sky will remain unadulterated and untouched. But these are the words of fools - my place remains up among the trade routes, now a malevolent web of conflict and strife. And of fear. -

This is my print that has been in the works for a long time now. If Orphic was inspired by Gary Tonge, this is, indeed, inspired by Greg Martin (notably Celestia III and In Darkness Light.) Having finished this I will hopefully have some more time to finish up other tasks :nod:

Any stocks from the sxc. and name comes from the track "Safe Trade Routes" by Jon Hallur found on the EVE online soundtrack.

Enjoy the Safe Trade Routes.

EDIT - Toned down frame, and placed larger crop of image.

Wooh, this is extremely sweet. After first view the cropping at upper edge starts to annoy me. But the quality is still very good.

Yeh, i'm in two minds about hte piece atm. I may release a mod of it to try and shift the dynamic into a more comfortable position.

......artistic flair and style are things that must be explored, not learnt.
