extra bits

I needed to add more scenery to the collage. I wanted a little car to be driving along under the stars to give a sense of scale for the mountains and sky. 




I tried painting the car, but I don't feel it looked as good as the photocopy version












I added in some trees to play around with scales again


I think adding a drop shadow to the car and trees really adds depth the the collage. Because the rest of it is so surreal with the bright colours and unrealistic scale, the shadow gives the only sense of real to the piece, makes the whole scene more fitted together.

Decided on a moon:

 I used a scan of butterflies from the nature books for the background, I felt it needed to be slightly textured to fit in.
It still looks a little out of place so I will need to do some more scaling and maybe lower the opacity to fit it in properly.
