I like the bird size difference clearly communicated!
I’m not sure howl you’ll make the bird look determined… but I leave that up to your genius
I know some people don’t care about color theory… but it works… so I’m curious what kind of colors are you going to try, those will be a subconscious thing that help people grasp the feel of the book
Darker tones for going into danger (I would aim to keep them a bit more desaturated to match the colors of the first book)
Red is often seen as a symbol for rebellion so that’s something to consider
If the storm is a big part of it maybe have a much cooler tone help with that feeling of cold, wet and also dangerous
You could even play around with the lightning colors (blue lighting and yellow lighting for example are both commonly used and give of different vibes)
And if it’s just for vibes who knows maybe you want to be outgoing and say you know what I want my storm to have a purple hue with purple lighting
I’ve seen people take really rough sketches like this and just drop in really rough colors no detail, just colors, it helps you get the vibe and communication across before you commit. It also helps you see where the focus will be drawn because colors dramatically affect that
Also it helps with composition… color theory is just kind of Awesome I only know some of the very basics but its helped me
I don't have any useful comments other than: perfect. Just do the thing.
uhhhh.....okay.
