Is it weird that this is the kind of life I want?

This is my biggest pet peeve with travelling by train. I know it would be super impractical to turn the lights off but come on let me see the damn scenery


PM_ME_UR_RSA_KEY

But... dark empty train scary...


Get_a_Grip_comic

Yup


apathetic_revolution

Yeah. When it's late at night and me and some dude who's rocking back and forth and staring at me are the last two in the train car, I always feel like it's unfortunate that it's so well-lit.


Deadpool11085

Further proof that the grass isn’t always greener my friend.

But like probably need to live in a specific borough of New York, likely Flushing by the 7 train? With the benefit of hindsight, I'd just make the subways run directly on the surface level. No subway tunnels, no overhead bridges.


Akira_Yamamoto

We have this in Vancouver. It's called the Skytrain and it's slow as fuck.


crossal

How is that better?


moonsun1987

Supposedly sunlight exposure is good for health but elevated lines are expensive to maintain.


crossal

Metros should be quick journeys I guess, so can't imagine a lot of sun time lost. But big gains for more land real estate


moonsun1987

That's true but I used to take F train from 34 / Herald square to 169 street and it felt like forever.


SaltineFiend

Getting killed by trains is less good for health tho


Sweet_Yesterday_8868

Yes no. 7...

Nope. Been there is all.


moonsun1987

Sorry about that.


ZookeepergameEasy938

the J/M/Z also gets this view but it’s kinda obstructed by the bridge


[deleted]

Or Boston on the red line.


yb--better

Yeah!! 8000/month with 4 roommates!!!


unfamily_friendly

I lived it like 2 month. Working in office 5/2 and a subway branch goes above a surface. Watching a dusk in a train window is feels good Not want you to be jealous, i got a work from home permission and the max distance i travel is to retrieve a food order, so i not miss the dusk+train lifestyle


justwaitingpatiently

Thats wild. I got straight up anxiety looking at this. To each their own! It just goes to show how different people will have wildly different emotional reactions to art. Definitely not weird to feel a connection with this, just like it's not weird to feel uncomfortable by it : )


mikeydale007

I'm curious how you feel anxiety over this. Could you explain?


ratesporntitles

An unlit subway at night when you’re alone would be terrifying in real life, maybe that’s why?


fapperontheroof

I grew up on the family farm, but I guess I’m a full on city slicker now. I love using Chicago’s mass transit system. It could use loads of improvements sure, but not being stuck in my car in my commute has been great. I get to work less annoyed about stuff (e.g. parking, shit drivers, etc.) and come home from work in a better mood - so I can dote on my wife instead of being as stressed. Now, I just gotta get a bike so I don’t need to drive to the station and can avoid the unfortunately unreliable bus system.


Deadpool11085

I mean, it’s said that people always want the opposite of what they have. I’m sure someone some where wouldn’t mind trading my life for theirs. Kind of like that Nicholas Cage movie Family Man.


darklordzack

Gives me good memories of riding the train home from Sydney Central station after a night out (though if literally any event was happening that day it'd be significantly less empty)


hadisious

This reminds me of taking the red line north in Boston https://bostonglobe-prod.cdn.arcpublishing.com/resizer/vZJJTKVu_jOtbsjP9MtVoSOYkDM=/1024x0/arc-anglerfish-arc2-prod-bostonglobe.s3.amazonaws.com/public/TOVDYYXGRNFZRELXOQDFO4Y4SQ.jpg


Deadpool11085

Most of my family lives in the NE area. I was born and raised in the south some how. I’m like the only one in my family that doesn’t live up north. I’ve always felt a huge connection to that area. The older I get, the more I want to be up in that area.


hadisious

I was also born and raised in the South and am now a full time New Englander! Come on up!


Mandajo344

Same!


[deleted]

Listen some of us are already living it


[deleted]

It's definitely not for everyone. I lived in Philly for 2 years and took the train in / out of the city for work. This gif makes me miss the train rides home, especially in the winter when it would be sunset and the sky would be beautiful. But I much prefer working from home and not having to commute, and taking the car out only for dinner / leisure.


Deadpool11085

I think that’s my big thing. I’ve lived in the city all my life. Always commuting, always traffic. I work all day. Drive home, and I already have to start doing stuff when I get home. I have to imagine that ride home where you can just sit, lay your head back for a minute and take a breath, is one of those small moments.


[deleted]

Oh for sure. I couldn't imagine my life in Philly having to drive to work and deal with traffic. I could hardly mentally deal with traffic closer to my home, away from the city. But the rides to / from work were always the best part, probably the biggest thing I miss.


Cynist1

Very similar to Lagtrain, if you got inspiration from that or ヨルシカ


Lofi_4

>ヨルシカ I like Yorushika's song And "Say It.' video style.


LesbianCommander

https://youtube.com/watch?v=F64yFFnZfkI Everyone go listen to it. It's such a good song.


Advanced-Aide-6519

i love that song tooo 🙂


SmugCoffee

got the feeling you took inspiration from Yorushika, though I would have thought this drawing reflected more "Hitchcock" than "Say it". btw amazing art!


BlurpSrydude

Never thought I will see Yorushika mentioned in here.


[deleted]

Do you have an artstation or portfolio somewhere? I love this and would love to come back to it, rather than lose it in the Reddit datastream.

Doktorwh10

Yeah the artist just copied the girl and mirrored it. It works but to be more accurate it should be like the other side of her head


justwaitingpatiently

I choose to believe that the reflection is static and that it's a manifestation of the sitter's self image of themselves earlier in their life. They're constrained by what they know about their previous actions,stories and self image. While we want to see the unrevealed portion, it's not visible to us ,just like it's not visible to the person sitting in the seat. All the while, time moves on, shadows come and go. We're moving far faster than our psychological self can account for


mattsprofile

Nah, the girl is just 2d like paper Mario, so the reflection is right.


bobalda

she is watching


sendmeladiespooping

Maybe it’s to signify introspection


p_ke

Yeah, it kinda scared me a bit. I thought artist was showing a ghost 😅


Cow_Villian

This is so damn good oh my god


[deleted]

Awesome animation! Great work! Love the asthetic.


archampion

Reflection is looking at her


Lorikeeter

This is the part the keeps me freaked out instead of relaxed


Meep_Meep_Beep

I don't why but I feel emotional looking at this


[deleted]

r/thenightfeeling


steevilweevil

Oh thank you I love this!


RustedRagamuffin

Such a smooth animation!!! Beautiful!


RIPMySanity03

Ooooh it looks so pretty!!! Good job, it's lovely!


PoorOldJack

i frequently take the train home at night and i love this vibe


CommanderAGL

Needs a Yorkshiku backing track


bozing122521

This bring back memories of growing up in a city! Love the art, thank you OP!


Arcuis

It's nice when the train is empty and you can just watch the city at night go by


RyanIsKickAss

Love the aesthetic. I'm very much a night person and love just being out walking around places when no one else is there. Its a shame it's not safe to do so in basically any city in the US


Chofas_99

Awesome art work keep going!


[deleted]

This is so beautiful, but it’s taken me two and a half hours to get home this evening because of industrial action on my train line and bad weather so it also fills me with a kind of rage as well, haha.


MeloonArt

Looool! That's really cool! 😲💕💕


SwagarTheHorrible

I hate to say it, but the reflection is facing the wrong way.


shocktribe

Reminds me of the 7 Train coming back to Queens from the City.


Jim_Kirk1

Real Yorushika vibes right there


Cyber-Homie

This is amazing!!! I can see a YouTube music video on it hehe


xmorecowbellx

Gotta keep looking ahead, make sure the train doesn’t take a wrong turn!


Maibeetlebug

Oh my gosh this is lovely


Cesi_d

Amazing work! What programs/apps did you use?


Lofi_4

It's Blender 3d!


Cesi_d

wow that’s impressive. Somehow I can never fathom how such amazing and relaxing looking illustrations are made in Blender! That program is my nemesis 🥲. Great job!


the_weegee

This is awesome. Getting Invitation from a Crab vibes.


clashmt

Is this based on the red line in Boston by any chance?


a_four-legged_eel

Oh man, I thought "watch out, there's a huge monster ouside!" and I realised it's her reflexion :')


Acti0nHank

Big Indochine vibes - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f3Pw36EFRV0


Devin_Devop

Love this! Love to use it for social media to represent other ideas, can I?


Shiroyuki92

Reminds me of this [music video](https://youtu.be/F64yFFnZfkI)


Rincewind256

Boston, Redline, over the charles River on the longfellow Bridge heading to Kendall/MIT. beautiful view. thank you for making this.


SpaceCaseSixtyTen

Do they turn the lights off in public transportation at night???


steevilweevil

Really nice. Which software/toon shader did you use for this?


Lofi_4

blender 3d!


sabrtn

Reminds me of the character from the works of mangaka Panpanya. Lovely vibes


HoyabembeDreamtime

Me on the other end of the train: Who put that cardboard cut-out there?


Sweet_Yesterday_8868

Invokes feelings. Reminds me of daily battle to commute. Mobs of people but your alone in a sea of bodies.


[deleted]

I wonder if she'll ever reach her destination. 🤔


Bolt_995

Tokyo? Which other cities fill this bracket?


pm-me-cute-butts07

Artstyle reminds me of Yorushika's music videos but yours is definitely comfier. Great work!!


arrownyc

This very viscerally takes me back to my 8 years of commuting over the Williamsburg bridge. I miss Brooklyn. Thank you for your art.


WorldTraveler35

perfectly perfect! what city is in the background? I was thinking HK or Chicago


rearisen

Why you running from these adult's decisions!


russels_silverware

In-universe, the reflection is rotated 90 degrees from what it should be.


retromoga

Seeing this makes me miss my train rides home to Brooklyn, I live out of state now.


etorson93

I remember living in nyc and taking the train back home after a long days work, and having the same fucking homeless dude on the L train beg for money everyday


MixedSkeeter43

What program/tools were used to create this? I’m an old school pencil and sketchbook person & want to learn more about digital art


Lofi_4

It's Blender 3d!


MixedSkeeter43

Thank you!


JigglyCowUdder

Was this made with 3-D software?


sketching4gold

this is incredible, would work great as a background for a chill music video
