Thank you! I've spent a long time crafting my style into what it is and I'm very happy with it I've always been a sucker for a good background, I find my pieces usually don't feel complete without one.
I highly recommend doing landscape studies to improve in that regards- it can be boring, but with good research about the content of the setting and without a character to draw the focus, it makes you really think about the composition and how to make it interesting in its own right. I'm still in the process of incorporating what I learned during my recent study into my main art (little to none of that progress ended up in this piece actually), but I'm hoping to see a rise in the quality of the scenery in my pieces because of it!
I'm trying to get into comics too, but my main style doesn't work well with that so I need to figure out how I can speed up the process and prevent over cluttering the page. Good luck to both of us on our background and comic progress!
