Description Background for an upcoming animation, trying to blend 2d with 3d. The character will be in 3d, but I wanted to get a painterly background look. I'm getting lost on where to go with this, if anyone has any ideas please let me know!

looking pretty good, but if i was going to nitpick id say try to definie what that gray triangle in the upper right is, and try experimenting with a saturated bright blue moonlight? you could stop right now and itd still be good though

Hey!

Agreed on the "triangle". It's a sign you see in a previous shot, but I just didn't pay much attention to it at the moment. I was actually told by someone else that the moonlight will actually take away from the character, and was told to take it completely out. Should I do this? Or maybe just tone it down or something? bleh...

since you dont have any moonlight hitting any objects right now, it shouldnt matter if you take it out or not

Well it's going to be a background for animation, so I can't really be putting other characters in there. It would look static and wouldn't blend enough with the actual character. Thanks for the advice though!

Thats cool though, you had the right idea if it was an illustration, so I appreciate the thought.
