Something else I found accidentally that reminded me of the castle:

It's from a 70s comc book Arzach. Could be an inspiration.
Power?
Am I looking for Power?

I somehow knew...That we would be friends.
I was never lonely...Because you were there.
We chose...Life and death together.
I believed in you...Always...

I think that is a different artist's rendiiton of the same scene. I wonder what it's based on.

I guess the second picture is the original one. The French comics were released in the US under the name "Heavy Metal", maybe some of you know the movie based on the comics. Nice stuff. I wonder if Murayama read the comics. :D

This is very obviously the work of Moebius, a prominent French cartoonist of science fiction, his style is very easy to recognize, it looks typically like his work.

Moebius is awesome, a real legend, don't think twice before you read everything he did!
