These rule, Marcus!
There are frequently power line scenes in Japanese anime.

Initially, the cost of burying the lines would be more than current maintenance.
However, in the long term, maintenance of buried lines would decrease and it would improve grid.
My town has buried lines and we never lose power. 1/2
The times we have lost power is from either some car plowing into a transformer or sabotage of the local grid or scheduled maintenance.
The only structures as unique as them are snowflakes.

My dad made a stained glass window of a telephone pole on our block when I was a kid, and I think thatβs why Iβve always been impressed by their angles and lines wherever I go, like this in San Jose, CA
π Thank you for the lovely imagery.

So far I haven't found a way to make the subject speak for me the way you clearly have.
And I am massive fan of prop variants
The game of Corruption and Commissions
He used those sketches for years of comics panels.
Is it pen or pencil?
