Work in progress 2

This is my current progress on the Pride illustration. I think that I'll move on to the designs for the other illustrations now, as I am in danger of having to rush them all towards the end. Can come back later to finish this one up.

I've added another symbolism as you can see at the bottom of the illustration, it was brought on by an accidental slip of the mouse when using the smudge tool. I realised it adds this sort of fake-ness, melting away that can be associated with prideful and vain people who have plastic surgery. I've also suggested that he is standing on a pedestal, and that as you move away from the character the colours are getting cooler to suggest he is radiating.
