Sometimes I have trouble visualizing art pieces from just lines.

The solution is to do a quick little scribble of highlights and shadows. This is going to be a shadow heavy picture.

Still, it's not quite coming together for me, I think. It lacks... I dunno. Something. And I can't quite figure out how to get it to where it needs to be.

I'm gonna sit on it for a while, I think. Maybe redraw some things.

@ziphi I have a suggestion if that’s okay?

@Leucrotta If it’s “use the background beams to emphasize the plane’s silhouette,” then I’m already thinking on that. But I don’t mind suggestions at all!

@Leucrotta Reading my response back, it comes across much harsher in tone than I intended. I hope I haven’t been too harsh with it.

I guess I should say, “I have an idea myself, but I would love to hear yours.”

@ziphi similar actually! Less lighting, more I was thinking flipping the background elements around so the wedge shape of the lights point to the spaceship.

@Leucrotta That’s a good idea! I may use that. Pointy things are very good at drawing the eye, and I seem to have drawn the eye toward the edge of the picture in the current version.

Thanks!
