There's a whole lot of stuff that inspired me to start work on this comic, and in this thread I will share them with you. There will be links to movies, images and music posted here as I get to it, and I would encourage users to post stuff that they might find reminiscent of the comic. I'm always up for more reference!

Might be a little obvious, but Fritz Lang's 'Metropolis', an old expressionist movie, kind of reminds me of what the Tower world might have been like pre-disaster.

Agreed! Even the new version amazing. Anything with industrial/urban decay fits here too...

This guy makes me want to tear my hair out in envy. Check the Robots sub-gallery for relevancy.

Oh sorry I guess I should have said...Someone on DeviantArt called alizarin. That the only pic they did that made me think of The Tower. Beautiful watercolour here I'd like to try more of myself. I've gone and misplaced most of my paints. :/
