      Color tests: I'm having trouble deciding. Can anyone help me pick?

        These are looking good. Although I might suggest going back to the value stage and working that out a bit more. If you turn off your line layer, you will see that your have mostly middle greys without real darks and lights. Think about local tone a bit more. Some cars will be dark, and some cars will be light. Then the lighting pass gets added on top of those values, but you never lose that value structure.

          @Lee-White Thank you ! I was wondering about that. When I do values, I'm always scared to go too dark. I really need to work on that!
          Here's what I've got and i'm happy so far. I normally work traditionally, so this is probably my third attempt at a digital piece.

                  I really like your design, you've done a great job problem solving! Personally I'm liking number 2 and number 4 for your color tests.

                          This piece reminds of the old Hanna Barbera cartoon where all the different characters race against each other. Fun piece!

                              HA! I love the carrot on the rabbit's car, very clever! Your rendering is really nice and I love the shapes you're using. Can't wait!

                                      @Christina-Taylor-Brown It looks great, but noticed one tiny mistake. Either hand or carapace(it should continue further around his head) is in the wrong place. if you erase the head, his hand will float in the air. If you broke the rules just to get better silhouette, just ignore my comment, its not really that bothering.

                                        @bharris @lindsayraecarr @NoWayMe @Thrace @Jiří Kůs Thank you all! I'm a little discouraged about the turn out, but I will keep trying. Unfortunately I am out of time and have to send it to the printer for my friend. I learned SO much in this process though, and that's what matters. Can't wait to make another!

                                        Feel free to Critique! I know that there is SOOOOOOOOOO much that I could fix, but for me this is it. Thanks for all of your encouragement!
