This is almost the same view as my childhood bedroom, except the house on the left was a McDonald's and the other one a seafood restaurant

I knew it looked familiar. This was my alternate (and more scenic) way to work for the last few years... plus I often go railfanning in the area.

Looks like a great painting and can't wait to see the final image!

It’s because it gives dimension to the GIF. One strike is closer to the camera to where the other is on the other side.

It’s the details that make it pixilated realness, which is what I appreciates about OP.

This is excellent work..

Have you thought about putting some sort of shadow in the sky during the big lightning? Like some sort of giant monster shadow against a field or red accented clouds? UFO? Cathulu? Dickbutt?

this just reminded me of my days growing up in a fairly old and thinly lined trailer. We would just turn everything off with the curtains open and you could just really feel like you were in the storm.
