Ah, I see what you've done
Maybe start posting wip updates in this thread now
As for the wips, I'm liking the ideas and the way they are coming together
On the last wip, I think the lights need some work -> see if you can find some to c+p rather than using lens flare, it will create a much more realistic effect
I like the ideas on the chop though, cool colour combo, backdrop and rims
The brushing isn't bad either, just perhaps make the top of the horizon line (dark stripe below the bright light bit) a little bit lighter
Other than that well done
Keep it up
