here's another in the series of tokyo drawings that i'm doing. this on shows a typical night-time delivery boy. the style of his motorbike is very common in japan. kind of a cross between a scooter and a low cc motorcycle. the post office uses them for mail delivery, painted a bright post office red. the milk crate strapped to the back is an often-used solution for freelance delivery boys. also, the way the helmet rests on the back of his head is a popular style with the younger guys. i believe they think it makes them look badass.

the need to look rough on a rough, utilitarian machine is the same aesthetic that drives alot of bike messengers in nyc too... same sort of vibe, i bet.

Re: race against time
wow, you capture the quintensential Japanese anime look to a T. (well, ok, that might come off poorly) rather I mean, in the same ethos of all my favorate anime's. you work is wonderful! Your attention to detail and realism is to be prased.

Plateau Houses
Here are some pictures of residental streets in the Plateau borough of Montreal. These pictures were all taken a couple weeks ago on my first trip to Montreal.
The Plateau has some of the most beautiful houses I've ever seen....
