StudioJason Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Nicely done..like it. Has a smooth clean feel to it Tonally. Though there are distinct light source issues in the characters ...as main ‘sun’ light source seems more upper left (or behind)..based on buildings, which match well- But ‘church’ is a bit darker than the ‘lighthouse’...would lighten church, to fade more distant atmospherically. A bit mismatched on main center figure...seems opposite occurs, needs more of that pale blue on right side (near car). And main zombie on right...a bit in a ‘spotlight’. Basically can’t tell if there is a main directional light source...bit to wonky. Could try Horizontal Flip on some...so each better has the same, along with proportional. Would either lose the Weed at tire, or change color to a more ‘dead weed’ (brownish?) to match terrain more. Overall though..think it is a nice Composite Concept piece! Just needs a few tweaks.

v_kyr Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Better, as it gives overall a different more oppressive atmosphere now.

StudioJason Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 Much better, as to the atmospheric quality and spatial relationships...though I wouldn’t completely forego the nice ‘Blues’ that were in the original. Perhaps some ‘fade outs’ of the overall Yellow Tone...such as with a Gradient- clear/none top, to reveal Bluish sky...then into the Yellowish, at bottom. Or, by way of Mask- to hide/reveal by Brush, subtly. Not so..complete coverage. Looking good though Figure-wise...as light source seems better matching.
