Hey bookend!
In regards to the comment you left on my sketchbook... I don't really have any tips on thumbnails. Every thumbnail on my sketchbook is a master comp study that's following the general idea of this video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kQfF-P70V2Q
I like your thumbnails tho, if I had to choose a favorite I would pick the second thumb just cus it seems to read better than the others. I don't know why.... again I'm just a noob haha
I had to read this "Chow" you speak of just to see what you were doing and it's safe to say I'm rooting for you!
I think it would help to get the story down in writing just so its clear in your head what you want to paint.
When I read the passage the first thing that comes to mind is a Banshee but that's because I heard a story ages ago about a man walking home when he comes across the sound of a young girl weeping near a lake....anyway long story short his family hear the banshee's cry and he is never seen again.
I apologize if you haven't heard of a Banshee too.... ah.... here....

They crazy haha
anyway like I was saying just get the story down in your head throw on some fitting music and make as many thumb/comps as you can until it all just fits together.
But really I would take my advise with a pinch of salt because I have no idea what I'm talking about, after all you are the first person I have ever given art advice to haha
Knock em dead in that challenge and enjoy the process!
