    It looks less like they're "inspecting" and more like they're dead cosmonauts floating about. Either way, it's pretty cool. #5 is particularly engaging.

    Kidding! These are awesome. I'd love to see them in person, or at least a super huge res photo.

    These are absolutely gorgeous. I'm always a little boggled by photorealistic painters. I can't imagine the patience it takes to do something like this.

    The weightlessness of the figures gives the already bleak and empty environments an even eerier feel. I like these a lot.

    The long vertical mark is suspected to be the outcome of the shuttle commander's "Number Two" event.
