EDIT: Thanks everybody who gave advice and tips, I tried my best to make it better and am now quite happy with it. :) I consider it finished now. [/EDIT]

Something experimental, inspired by that madonna video 'jump' which I really like.

This style of colouring is completely new to me, so I have no clue if this is finished or not. Advise?
It's driving me crazy and i can't choose: The sketchy, paintery style of the background, or the half painted, half cell shaded foreground. Some parts have lineart, others don't, it's a complete mixed mess.
So.. good or unfinished??

Again: this is a half succesfull experiment. Critique very much appreciated, but only on the coloring style: Im quite happy with the messed up perspective and composition.

I also kindof like Capricorn's face, and the sketchyness of Scorpio.

---------

From l to r:
Capricorn, the Gemini twins doing reckless stuff, Scorpio,

Originally I also wanted to include Cancer, but the composition didn't work. Im confused. See it here: [link]

I think your composition is wonderful. The placement of the characters really pulls the viewer into the scene, and the blue background really helps. Great work!

Thanks, the background makes me cringe these days but still like the composition.

Ooh, I love the crisp sort of urban feel to this. The composition is lovely, and though your color scheme is relatively simplistic, it works really well!

Absolutely love the composition and perspective, the way you have arranged with elements in the foreground, middle, and background, really create such an interesting depth and a very real sense of space :)
