Sometimes you just gotta trash it...
So, that Ultramarine piece I had been working on? I didn’t like how it was going. I couldn’t get the composition to work with me, no matter how much I tried moving around the characters I already had. I was left with two options: finish what I had as best I could and have an underwhelming piece of art…or, start over.
And so start over I did. Here’s the new idea after two days, one for sketching and one for starting color and light. It’s still got a LONG ways to go, but I already like it better. Plus, the Space Smurfs are even more screwed than before.
