PPP: Studio Brief 2 (Developments)

Often when working on complex digital compositions I get lost in piles of layers, so this time I have introduced a more systematic approach and given each layer a deliberate purpose.

After some amount of searching I found a helpful selection of textural brushes, allowing me to introduce additional interior detail to the illustration.

In order to add a little more detail I introduced a small character into the composition, this conveniently gave me and opportunity to use one of my prized gas masks. I decided that the character would most likely be wearing some form of PPE due to the polluted conditions surrounding the house and the gas mask efficiently communicates the idea of filthy air.

I also considered adding a train into the composition, however I judged that it would distract from the background coal station.
