"to step" - 4 images 1 theme - art project

[ThomasK]

I have posted this in my sketchbook but I hope to get some better replies here :

I started a project for my art lessons in school. We should show motion (well that's the worst translation I could have given, better: to step, to perambulata or to cross [NOTE: I don't know what I am talking here I just translated the german words to english words ]). We must do this with 4 Images which must be dinA3 sized. My original idea was to show luck, pain, death and rebirth (sounds really simple, heh?). All 4 images must be the same scene but we have to move the camera angel and so on ... My character is standing on a battlefield (you see this in image 2) and dies there. Image 1 shows him smiling because he is watching a butterfly, lucky moment Than the camera zooms out and shows the battlefield with monsters (maybe) and you can see the character is hurt. Then the camera zooms out and you can see the character dieing and the last image shows the character as an angel flying to heaven.


Here is what I have painted so far ...

C&C is very welcome! Thanks!

that's very rough
and maybe use a pencil and a scanner to work at this stage!

(hier is übrigens auch der ein oder andere deutsch, musst dich nur umschauen)

If the assignment is to show the same scene from different angles, why is the background the same in all of them?

The assignment ist not to show the same scene from differen angels but to show motion. There must be different angels to show motion also in the point of view. Maybe I explained that not very well. The background is only moving a little bit (today I showed this 4 images my teacher and he aggreed with my concept. The only critic was the angel, he should look into the image).


Infinit: I have no scanner, this is why I work directly digital. (also das Thema heisst "schreiten / durchschreiten" Vielleicht hilft dir das jetzt in irgendeiner weise alles besser zu verstehen)

There will be a background update tomorrow, I had not the time I hoped to paint today.

I had nearly no time yesterday and today to work on it. Worked on the background color as I said before. I am going to change the pose in image 4. The angel has to look in the other direction (don't ask me why for me it makes sense like it is now but my teacher wants me to do this. I want a good mark so I have no choice )

Here is an update:

Update I forgot to post yesterday:
The battleground is gone, I have no time to paint this and the main reason is that after some thoughts it does not fit to the concept anymore.
Image3: The 2 killers will get pistols. They are shooting my character, no futuristic but something fitting to the time.

The new concept paintings for image 3 and 4 will be painted and uploaded by me today, later
Hope you like the changed concept?


Anyway, here is what I have got so far:
