      @Nyrryl-Cadiz I'm gonna rock the boat and say pick the first one because the contrast is too strong on the other two 😬

        @Nyrryl-Cadiz I like the 3rd one the best. I feel like I can enjoy looking at their faces and the items serounding a little more easily.

          @Nyrryl-Cadiz The darkest one! It provides the most contrast and helps the characters and objects stand out.

            @braydin-hawlette I agree. I like the first one due to contrast. The people disappear into the floor the other two versions.

                Hi @Nyrryl-Cadiz, this is such a great scene!

                What do you think about going white for the floor to give the characters some room?

                  I’d go with the 1st one, but a slightly darker version. The other 2 have so much contrast and the people blend in with the ground. Going slightly darker with the 1st one would provide just enough contrast so the floor stands out, but doesn’t blend with the characters

                    I am thinking about what we need to focus on, and looking for ways to enhance that focus and to not be distracted by things we should not be focused on. .

                          First of all, I love this piece! Second, have you tried going lighter instead of darker?

                            Hi everyone! Sorry for the long wait. I got very busy with work and life. I only finished this piece last week.

                            I wasn’t satisfied with either option 1 and 2 so I compromised and combined both.

                            Here it is. Thank you to everyone who shared their thoughts. It was very helpful.
