If you were to approach this as a typical illustration, a workflow that tends to work for most people is to really put all the effort up front and then basically leave the finishing of the piece as a rendering exercise, so I would recommend going back a step before you put more into this.
Check out these posts for simple approaches to thumbnailing and value structure. Basically composition and values are what you want to focus on first and thumbnailing is about doing lots of mini-illustrations with these two things predominantly in mind. Don't do thumbnails with involved linework..think larger shapes and simplified values. You can do linework carefully afterwards on the solid bones of your prework. Hope it helps!
