I guess the idea behind this was to show two aspects of how the future may develop. First, that society will continue to put emphasis on outward appearance... hence the high maintenance, grooming bots. However, antithetically some exterior sterotypes will be overcome as well. Like how in today\'s society interracial relationships are becoming more common, in the future we might see a flower child and punk rocker dating and think nothing of it.
Great idea here. But I don't think it utilizes space very well. I would say the characters are very "heavy" top wise. The action seems a bit confined too, gadgets could be coming from all directions, in different areas of the shirt. You have a groovy going here, the image just needs to be "pushed" a bit.
I love the traditional artist in a world of vector graphics, and this piece has great style. Ideas don't always have to be immediately clear to be brilliant. (Art also doesn't have to look like a three dimensional space with stuff coming in all directions - to disagree with an earlier comment - just look at edward gorey).
