I did this some time ago (started Mar. 6) as an art request for a tumblr user. While they were happy with what they received, I just couldn't help but get extremely frustrated working over this piece.
I constantly have trouble rendering which part in the dark side I should go whenever I choose rim lighting. I know that I wanted to do exposure for dark, but I just don't know which light source I should head towards when it comes to rendering out the shadow side, or even how much detail to add before I end up overworking this piece.
Also I don't know how to make the background blend in well with the characters. Should I do limited tone studies (in black and white) for backgrounds? Or do limited palette colour studies? Or something else? I'm super lost on this.
