Reality

I wanted to make reality a place that the populace would like to escape from into The Picture. As people spend more and more time in virtual reality, so their cities are slowly overtaken by vines, creepers and other growth. There's no hope for the young people who grow up here.

Reality

Inspiration came in part from this grim old tobacco warehouse at the Stanley Dock in Liverpool:

The Black Market

Key scene featuring The Light Brigade in The Black Market, the criminal underworld of The Picture:

Shine

Shine is the mysterious figure who assigns The Light Brigade their missions against the criminals of The Picture.

Key scene: In the deepest, most secret roots of The Picture, Shine informs Sweet Thing that she has been chosen to be the leader of The Light Brigade.

the Brat's Avatar

The Brat is a child, yet in The Picture he chooses to appear like the creator of The Picture, the man from whom he was cloned. He still wants to look as tough as an action figure though!
