Boston Line graphic

One of the guys over at Trainboard made a custom avitar for me. After some back and forth, I got exactly what I wanted:


I am so happy with the graphic that I will be using it (with permission) for all future articles related to building the Boston Line.

This is based on some recent Amtrak posters by Michael Schwab:

Looks great, with the Futurism & nice color work.
You'll be the only one with an avitar bigger than the posts!
Awesome!
(And you know what they say about guys with big avitars, don't you...)

Makes me wish I could draw / work the com-pew-tur magic like that.

Sorry bout the large size. TB no longer restricts file size. I made it a bit smaller.

I like it.

Even better, it looks like it'll scale nicely for different uses: forum avatars, shirts, billboards, etc...
