Process: Vista
I always like to show process stuff just to explain how i work. It's something when i was trying to learn concept i wished more professionals in the industry shared. I mention this in my notes on the images, but the only step not shown is my very rough linework. I didn't include it because it's really basic just kind of showing where i want my foreground, middleground, and background to be and doesn't really resemble these images.
Each page of concepts got a round of feedback in between them. So i showed the first 4, then got some feedback, then showed the next two, got some more feedback, then finished off #6. I vaguely recall but i might have gotten some feedback on 1 and 2 before starting 3 and 4. Looking back on them now i think it was mentioned to really push the background. In #5 i go a bit too far on backdrop and pull it in a little bit on 6, adding more middle ground.
As with the previous images, major props to my whole team on this. They all give great feedback and when I'm stuck are there for me to bounce ideas off of and are an important part of the process. check out their stuff:

The above images were the first round of thumbs, to create a vista for outside of the gameplay space when you look out, at the edge of the lane. Below is iterating on them.
These came after the previous thumbs, and were in response to some feedback. The one on the top image evolved again to the bottom image after more feedback.
This is the colored version after i got the ok to go ahead with 6. Could probably polish a bit more, but it's going to be for basing a model off of so for time, it doesn't have to be 100% crystal clear.
