Well, lord knows I'm no actual artist but...

Ok, the original
Nighthawks (Edward Hopper, 1942)

Blvd of Broken Dreams (Gottfried Helnwein, 2005)

Bar of Drunk Space Pilots (that's me, last bar stool on the right)

I was feeling my "inner artist" last night.

I can see the similarities between the first 2 images, but for the 3rd... you kinda need to work the framing part a bit

I did want the camera lower to match, but I think if you check the lower right corner, there were two guys in the way and try as I might they just wouldn't leave.

With some heavy photoshop you could probably do a reasonable ED facsimile. There is a ground station that looks into the bar from outside. Then mesh it with some other ground shot....

I kinda like it just the way it is. Good eye.

Nighthawks is on the wall of one of my favorite diners here in Toronto. They make terrific pancakes, although the quality has gone down since they replaced the old cook who used to chain smoke while making your food. His dishes had just the right amount of cigarette ash in them.

Oh, that would be my brother - he's the photoshop expert in the family. Also found these:

So, yeah, it can be done. @Rubbernuke ?

What would be cute is a bunch of us at the bar, no helmets. FD: We need a beer-drinking emoji.

Hhehehehe

You want a Powerplay Nighthawks?

My advice would be (in game) set up the people you want and using the in game camera line everything up exactly and screenshot the lot for source material. Then in Photoshop / Thatotheronethathasanaughtyname arrange it. For example the outside window might be possible through one of the ground bases (you'd have to scout it). But angles are everything and it all has to have that otherwise it looks off. The pilots can all take turns in the same seat (since that simplifies angles again).

The saloon is located preferably on a street corner to maximize sign impact. It's the perspective here but the screenshot pics up that theme and perspective to the old art pieces. I wouldn't have realised it but can only endorse OP for the quality contribution of tasteful art to this forum.

Thumbs up for the T-Dot!
