For my redraw of a thumbnail in colour I decided to go with the monochromatic scheme. The thumbnail was based off the idea of a Hell landscape so I thought that the red colour often associated with Hell would be a good choice. I also wanted to practice this monochromatic scheme as I am not used to only working with different hues to create an image so I thought it would be good practice.

I think the colour redraw has really helped to add emotion into the piece, giving it quite an ominous feeling. It almost creates a post-apocalyptical feeling, with the red hues in the sky and the darkest tones of the leaves. I think this works well given the world I was trying to create and portray in this thumbnail.

In the colour image I think the sky captures a better gradient which in turn helps to add to the atmospheric perspective so I am happy to see my work improving in this way. I also think that the gradients and different hues of reds works well in the areas of land in the image, particularly more towards the back of the image.

One area which I think could do with some improvement in comparison to the first image is that the light streaks which fall on the rocks. I think the lines appear softer is the first image, so I could try using a blur tool or a softer airbrush tool to make the blend softer and more like a light.
