𝗢𝗸𝗮𝘆 𝘀𝗼, Ganz 𝘄𝗮𝘀 𝘁𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗼𝗳 𝗱𝗿𝗮𝘄𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗦𝗸𝘆𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻-𝗼𝗯𝘀𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝘀𝗼𝗻.

This was supposed to be simple.

Just a quick prompt.

A train. Maybe some tracks.
Like something you’d hand a kid with a box of magic markers.

But Ganz got carried away.

He ran a prompt.
Did a few paintouts.
Started nudging lights, cleaning seams, tweaking fog, adjusting reflections.

Suddenly we had:
🌫️ Industrial haze
🚦 Sodium bounce on wet roads
🌇 A city that doesn’t exist but feels like it does

This isn’t a real shot.

But it might as well be.

That’s what happens when your eye is trained to see what most people miss.

Even when he tries to keep it “basic,” Ganz can’t help himself.

This was supposed to be a coloring book!

And we got this.

How’s his son supposed to color over that?
