[x] Steampunk'd Alfonse Mucha goes Under the Sea... - Update


Unsatisfied with how dark my previous progress shot was going, I decided to completely redo the color palette... and this is the direction it's going in now. A couple peer feedbacks have been that there's nothing drawing the eye all the way down the length of the piece; that the gears at the top keep the eye fixed when, really, the flow of the jellyfish is supposed to lead the eye through the piece. Richmond had suggested I incorporate the pendulum you find in grandfather clocks to help bring the eye down while the straight lines of the pendulum will add a nice visual contrast to the flow of the jellyfish. Progress shot to come...
