"Ever had the feeling you've been here before?
Drinking down the poison the way you were taught
Every thought from here on in your life begins and all you knew was wrong?"

Arriving somewhere but not here
by PORCUPINE TREE

Another book cover for Polish publisher "Fabryka Slow"
And yeah adding quotes to an image is a bit corny but I like It. I usually have one song that I listen the most during picture painting and I though its kinda cool to mention it as in my head its completing the image

Any comments most welcome

I've found not one but at least two excellent music uploads on YouTube which have this as their image. I never expected to bump into the original here.

Looks like a scene from the book "Otherland". In that scene people fight in cyberspace to free real friends that can not escape from that virtual reality... Actually even the woman in the tank can not leave cyberspace anymore.

If you think you want to read the books, only read the "Books" section here en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Otherlan… - otherwise you'll read major spoilers. Part of the story is that the reader as well as the figures have no clue what's happening and why - knowledge comes in small portions. You'll only really understand when you have read the last book.
Ahem ... I'm not advertising, just a big fan.

Anyhow, great picture!

Amazing job!

Oh wow, and here I was, thinking this is a fanart for Ghost in the Shell. For which book is it? I'm Polish, so I may read it, the topics presented on this cover peaked my interest
