I've refined most of the values and adjusted the majority of colours in the scene as well as adding in some extra details here and there. 

The next step is going back and making some small changes to a few elements and adding the final touches. 

After adding in some extra details to the linework and messing around with different colour schemes for the background I've started adding in some rough shadows to give everything some volume and trying to figure out the overall lighting for the piece.

Really excited to see where it goes! 

Playing around with different colours and temperatures for the background in order to see what works best and enhance the overall mood of the piece.

After blocking in the colours I go back to polishing the lines and adding some additional details to make the city feel more ''alive'' and flesh out the characters.

Taking a quick step back from drawing in order to block out everything and see how it translates to colour and establish a rough colour scheme and overall mood. 

At this point, I've started expanding on the previous idea by adding additional flowers and buildings while greatly increasing their scale to push the concept further and also adding more depth and levels to the city.

Finally starting to narrow down on a concept. I really liked the idea of both characters standing on top of a large structer and overlooking the city. I felt this gives me a good opportunity to showcase what the world looks like, while also being  able to focus on the design of the characters at the same time, further adding to the worldbuilding and story. 

I've taken some ideas from previous sketches and started mashing them into one concept. Since I really liked the idea in my initial sketch, I decided to stick with the giant flowers. However this time acting as solar panels, supplying energy, puryfing the air and making everything look and smell nice. 

Further exploring ideas and different scenarios. Not really thinking too much about anything specific, just sketching out different elements and letting the story play out infront of me until something catches my attention.

Taking some of the ideas and sketches that I liked from my sketchbook into Procreate. At this point I'm still exploring and thinking of a story behind the piece to tie in with the theme while trying to make something that I think looks cool. 

Maybe some ambitious scientists saw potential in mixing human dna with plants so that people can feed off sunlight by photosynthesising in order to reduce consumption and eliminate world hunger, however something went terribly wrong in the process.

Starting out with pen and papper to help me loosen up and explore some ideas and concepts.
