Still from cutscene in Firefighter 2038 where Jezhao Lin Mei makes the decision to use her own oxygen tanks to blow the locked doors in the 20th floor of the Pei Hanjin Building in downtown Shanghai where U.S. illegal immigrant garment workers were trapped by a fire that climbed the staircases.
Although in the game (made by Ambednakhar Studios in Mumbai for the Bausch & Lomb Contact Lens Display System), the player is able to survive as officer JeZhao, in reality she died in the explosion that freed the 27 workers and was posthumously awarded the People's Red Star of Civil Bravery.
... I was second guessing whether to enter this time as there's been an amazing amount of amazingly amazing entries, but winning's not the point of a weekly challenge I think. Anyway, I think I may have learned a lil' bit more about how to draw 'the shiny' from this one. Still struggling with the technical basics, tho.
Huh. That's...weird. Do you see a blank box with the broken picture icon? Do you see the preview?
[Edit]: Were you using IE? I tried this page in IE, and I'm not seeing there either now.
[Edit2]: Changed it to a GIF and that seems ta make it appear in IE. Huh. Sorry bout that, guys. I dunno if it's Graphics Gale, PNGs, or the site. Weird.
