I don't get it, why are the robots playing cards? Also, where did I park my car?

THEY PLAY CARDS BECAUSE IT IS A GENTLEMAN'S GAME AND THEY ARE GENTLEMEN ROBOTS! MY LOGIC IS IRREFUTABLE! Thanks Azü, yeah this is one of my favorite works so far. I added a lot of subtle detail such as each player having a drink matching their color:
Electron: Blue-Colored Martini
Toxitron: Gin and Tonic
Magmatron: Bloody Mary
Arcanotron: Red Wine
No Reprieve: Whiskey (Gold)
I did a lot of work on the shadows on the table and transparencies in the drink glasses as well. A good amount of perspective mapping went into placing the card hands on the table and stamping an NR logo on the deck. I also love the way "Bollocks!" turned out. Had to run that text through quite a few filters to give it that faded calligraphy look.
Another interesting note: This image is actually a square. The black bars at the top and bottom produce an optical illusion making the image seem taller.
