All right, that old comp wasn't sitting right with me, it seemed too over-balanced on the left side, so I sat down with it again to recompose. I played around with the sizes and tilts of the characters more, and got it assembled into a much better composition. Instead of focusing on the details around the drawings, I approached it with a 'big picture' aspect - not worrying about what detail got covered up, or how tightly they fit together - I wanted more energy, and I can fill in the gaps later. I feel this arrangement has more balance, and I can use the background to further balance it out with some starshine or something...
In doing a bit of moving some junk around, I found this old sketchbook, that coincidentally held the original Bounty Hunters idea, from 12-13 YEARS ago. I had the big idea, but I think this was the only drawing I ever did for it, up until a couple weeks ago. Crazy...
