Every few years I reread the book "Crash" by J.G. Ballard, one of my favourite authors. When I started out with this drawing I had no idea it would be a reference to that book. I just started drawing on the top left side with an underpass, and continued clockwise drawing without plan. Suddenly I found I had drawn "Crash" without realising it. It was a strange experience.
The drawing was made with my Lamy Accent fountainpen, but filled with chinese Hero ink (see linework version).
After that I waterbrushed the drawing, and even though Hero ink is not waterproof, it only bleeds to a limited amount: the lines are still clear. I did not use extra Chinese ink in the washes, just what came off from the linework.

Waanzinnig, je voorstellingsvermogen.
Nou, niet overdrijven hoor. Maar het is leuk om te doen, dit soort tekeningen.
Geweldige tekening Rene en leuk te lezen hoe die tot stand is gekomen!
Bedankt Rodney, soms tekent een tekening zichzelf.
It's a fantastic illustration, Rene.
Echt heel bijzonder, maar vooral heel mooi. Mij dunkt, dat deze stijl om continuering vraagt.
Thanks Rob, it was funny, the drawing drew itself.
Ja Nico, het was een probeersel, maar smaakte inderdaad naar meer.

Dank je wel Liz.
You drawing is actually a perfect illustration! I would not like to sit , however, in one of the cars you draw.
But the drawing is very good and nice use of the colors. I like it!
Thanks Ludek, I wouldn't want to sit in them either.
Wow! It is amazing how good you are on autopilot.
Yes, Autopilot is the word, I hadn't thought of that but it describes it nicely.
