A lesson for anyone who wants to do good storytelling with subject matter that is not the easiest thing to make dynamic in a hand drawn medium, cars.
Hot wheels at that

Naked babes are hard to draw
One of the things that fascinates me is the human flesh is not a monochrome color, boney parts will pick up blue, fleshy parts can have reds running thru them and everything picks up bounced light. The dullness of monochrome coloring in comics is part and parcel of the “I never saw a human being experience”.
Or it may be that comics drawing just isn’t about observed reality.
A nice fashion site, to allow browsing of items but provide some standard storytelling for ads too. The site uses full browser window video, overlayed with a white band filled with thumbnails, clicking a thumbnail expands that image on white to full screen. A double click zoom ain’t totally working to zoom even closer.
The full screen video play the “life” story while the band of images show you everything you can pick from, giving the shopper their browsing ability and their overview of how cool is my lifestyle if I wear these clothes.
This is nice internet storytelling, because the use always knows where they are, can have an overview of the “story” and see a mor eintimate in the middle of it chunk.
