Alternate Version: Best Friends

Characters from the web comic "Heil!" owned and created by, .

This piece has come about at some what of a mid-way moment in working on a piece I've titled "Best Friends". A scene of Seven Kay and Kubin, playing the violin, and singing to each other walking down a street.

Early into working on the piece I had to import the image of the two characters together to align the street's 3D made tiling to their feet, to Bryce. After coloring in the first background, I decided the clouds should also look aligned to the image. This is not the atmosphere meant for the scene. Nor is it meant to be transparent. The transparent bit was a loading glitch of the Photoshop file. I thought this mistake looked so interesting it needed to be for an alternate version of what is being worked on, hence this.

I'm sure at some point tomorrow, I'll be done with the true first intended version.
(Please note the Photoshop files used in the making of this, are being made in Corel Painter. I use Photoshop file format for transferring the image between programs, in layers.)
