this is awesome

Thanks, glad you like it

Do they smoke grass up in space bowie?

Or do they smoke Astro Turf? 83

You know, I couldn't say. Probably a little of both

Thats pretty freaky 8D

Good call, those things can ruin anyone's day.

Most impressive!

Thanks

I wish space travel could be so relaxing!

Don't we all...

Such a beautiful emotional picture.

Well thank you, glad you feel that way about it

That's what I call health conscious O____o

Dude this picture is awesome

Damn straight it is

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=buqtdpuZxvk I think of this when I see this image. :P

I love that song so much. And yeah, I get that in my head every time I look at this

Awesome art! But how do you come up with all these crazy ideas for commissions?

And how are you a raccoon and a dragon both at once? You still haven't answered me on that, don't think I've forgotten it. =;)

Thanks, that's very flattering. I have no idea, they just sorta come to me.

As to the Dragon/Raccoon thing...

Oooh, really really cool! ^^ It should be printed at full-size poster scale and put on the wall. :3

Hmm... now that's an idea. Excuse me a minute *wonders off to Kinkos*

Thanks, glad you like it.

That IS phenomenal. Holy freakin' hell. Kudos upon props to the artist.

It's built like a Steakhouse but handles like a Bistro.

Careful, that's an uncharted sector being flown through.

This pic reminds me of the old PBS minisode series Jack Horkheimer's Stargazer.
And also, that just can't be the "Bistromath" flying by in the BG, can it?

As improbable as it may sound, it is indeed. How good of you to notice

Flying East End Italian restaurants are somewhat unusual to see in the spacelanes, even in an infinately large universe as our own,
But then, that's Somebody Else's Problem, y/n?

Indeed it is, just go back to your cricket game.

I'd sooner watch the game from my Paisley-covered Chesterfield sofa.
And the night-time sky on Krikkit is so thoroughly boring after all...

PROTIP: I can keep this up rather indefinitely, you know. Even longer than the Captain can stay in his bath.

As can I. I could do this forever, even longer than Marvin had to wait around to get to the end of the universe.

Marv was several times older than the universe by the time he finally died, just after seeing God's Final Message (a delightfully vague number, as opposed to his lingering on Frogstar World B, which had a quite definite value). But time is bunk after all, so who cares?
I don't mind telling you, you are the first person I've met on these boards who can even carry a Hitch-hiker's thread even this far.
(goes to put "Journey Of The Sorcerer" on the record player and waits for your reply)

Never did care for that song, I'm much more content to hum the opening note of Noel Coward's 'Mad About A Boy' over and over again.

You hum an opening note? Not the opening bar or the opening phrase, but the opening *note*?
That almost sounds akin to walking up to someone and saying softly over and over "Blood. Blood. Blood. Blood. Blood."
The UK version of the film seems to have been presented with a truncated, orchestrated version of "Sorcerer" accopanying a faithful redux of a typical H2G2 episode, whereas the American release had a big-assed montage of dolphins doing aquarium tricks, with an over-the-top Broadway-sounding, choral rendition of "So Long And Thanks For All The Fish", with lyrics by Mr. D. Adams.
For some reason "Fish" was for me the best book of the series.

Well it's not like anyone ever asks why I hum just that note, and that's rather annoying in itself.

Would it be too much to say I enjoyed the opening Dolphin bit? The movie itself as a matter of fact, just really liked it.

And my fave is LTUAE, cheers me up no matter what my mood.

The Dolphin opening was enjoyable. How the title fades in through all those bubbles with that musical buildup, and then the obviously Adamsesque lyrics:
"So the world's going to be destroyed.
There's no use getting all annoyed."
Doug never hid his contempt for most of modern society, and that song was a wonderfullu upbeat bird-flip at what's become of us.
LU&E is fun, as is the whole arc. Personal tastes hold ultimate dictation of preference, of course.

Well, that's one of the things I love about him so much. He's just so chipper in his hating of things :)

Personal taste always has something to do with it, no doubt about it. I actually didn't care much for LTUAE at first, thought it was much too complicated. But it's certainly grown on me over time, and that's the one I tend to think of when I think of the series (from Zaphod's drinking to the Longest Party in the Universe to all things Bistromath).
