      Adorable concept. I personally think you don't need more than 2 lightening flashes very obviously connecting to the power source. Too may flashes draws away from the idea of capturing the electricity to make your popcorn and powering the TV. ( and maybe just creating a fire!) Super cute.

        @Valerie-Light I think the 2nd one emphasizes the story more, whereas #1 is about both the exterior and interior. Therefore #2 works better. This is a super fun concept. I wonder though where the other family members will sit? Perhaps the upstairs room needs to be a little bigger.

          All right, friends, I think line and value are pretty much set here.
          My style (and my soul) are made of overcomplicating things, and at this point I'm trying to embrace it and make it work for me. Is it?

          Next I plan to add washes of transparent color, maybe just light blue, dark blue, and yellow for storm/shadows, electricity, and popcorn. Color studies to come.

              Oh yeah, this is telling a very fun story you definitely nailed a solid concept. Nicely done, very excited to see the finished piece.

                    I think it's done, but I'm gonna let it sit here for a day or so before submitting. What do you think?

                        @Valerie-Light Amazingly creative, fun and cleverly designed and definitely a top 16 entry. I love how you show us a cut away to gain entry into the place. I bet this popcorn tastes the best! I wonder what movies do horror characters watch?

                          @AngelinaKizz @PenAndrew Thanks! They're watching a monster movie, of course. Godzilla, in this case.

                            @Valerie-Light Ha ha, yes my thinking that it could go either way into the theme of horror or something completely different, maybe we watch scary things and so maybe scary things watch light hearted things and that scares them!
