Haven't worked on them yet so they are the same as I shared this Thursday.
Basically played with different directions and eventually came up with these sketches that I liked.
I am biased towards the story element I imagined for 2 to 5. Unfortunately, it only makes sense in
I really like the composition for 11, but don't quite like the idea. It seems very...surface level, but I can fall back to it if everything else fails.
I feel I can't get the impact I wanted for 1 and 7 with the current aspect ratio so I want to give up on that idea. If the frame was much taller, I think I can give it the dramatic effect I wanted but I would prefer working on the other ones.
6 and 8 are based on sketch 12. It was the original idea I had, but it was made with a landscape format in mind. I really wanted the fins/arms to fly out, giving the monster some expression, but the portrait format crops out all but the fish's head. The idea is the fish monster was sleeping but woken up by the traveller passing by. It was annoyed and wanted to go back to sleep, so it tries to act mean to scare away the traveller. I'll play with some different compositions but I prefer to work on 3, 5 or 11.
Good work Shen. You can surely work out #5 to make it more striking and dramatic as we discussed. But for me #3 has everything. The lighting will be very interesting to work on :) I would like to see the fish in a different angle, see a bit more of the belly than it's right side.
