This is pretty amazing, @znkd. I like how working on one thing can cause something else to spring to life. And while you were going for simplicity, I like the feeling of intricacy that these inked drawings give. There's a lot going on.
I've been looking for some way to present a graphic story that's not static, so I like what you've done here with the gif. It provides a sense of motion that I really like. There's a greater sense of what's happening, and it's more impactful this way, though standalone is awesome, too. Stills are brilliant.
Great work. :)
Thanks! Yes is cool when something brings other stuff to life... I think the cosmos kind of work in this way.
