I am always intrigued by what you can see in your local scrapyards and auto breakers yards. A place where old cars and machines come to die, where their useful parts are salvaged and whatever is left is recycled into new things. This tomboy in the crane is about to put one mangled car out of it's misery =P
The background's outlines were drawn with traditional ink methods instead of digital for a change; this is because I found it easier and more effective to do more rough and uneven designs that way.

When I was working at the electronics shop in Hesperia, there was a scrap metal recycling yard right across the street, and I'd usually spend my lunch break just watching the machines pick up the old cars and drop them in the compactor. I saw a few "Classic" car body panels head into the crusher, but what could one do?
Yeah. It was one of the kinds that crushed the metal into cubes. It was also one of the types that would crush a car flat. Since the scrapyard dealt with everything from old cars to washing machines, they would simply crush everything into cubes about the same size as a large, 75 gallon Ice Chest. The guys working the claw machines and magnet cranes were also fun to watch. It was easy to imagine these huge machines were some sort of metal "Beasts" serving a supine but very hungry "Master."
Many cranes are on the side of the cab, however in this pic the crane is sort of supposed to be able to revolve around next to the cabin. Whether any cranes like that exist in the non-furry world I don't know, but it'd kind of screw with the dramatic effect if the wrecked car was up close, distracting from the rest of the scene =P
Exactly! never judge anything by looks alone, dig deeper and you find much more than any appearance could give. ;3
Which is why I always ponder about that with any thing that has been around a while. I look at it, and try to imagine what it was being used for, or what it's life was like back before the junk heap was it's new home. ^^
