Special Ed's Halloween Sale(update)

Put this in here as it's more about Ed and less about cars.

Actually, it will be my entry in a Halloween Poster Contest for
an on-line comic site.
(If I get it done in time.)

Still working on the background for Ed's Place, "Happy Arces Used Cars,"
where the deals are to die for and all sales are final!

Here's a close-up of the neon sign.
Got the "HAPPY" done, and yes, part of the "H" is not working.

Ed would never rip-off anyone,....

...maybe just take a soul or two, even a pint of blood.
But that's all!

Think I've got the background done, now to start on the characters.
(Anyone see stuff that looks wrong?)

Yep, the moon's in the back, that's why the shadows are
to the front.

(But I'm trying to hide details....)

Thanks.

There is no shadow on the ground in front of the fence and sign post. If the moon is behind them, wouldn't they cast a shadow on the ground in front of them? Your character is also lacking a shadow.

This is really good!

Thanks, haven't finished any of the shadows in the foreground yet,
Once I'm done with Ed, then I'll finish up with the cast shadows of everything up front.

Doug, I still have a few more "eggs" to place in there too.
Glad you like it.

It's done, I think.
So here's the time for all you eagle-eyed proofers to give it a once over.
I've looked at this so much, it all blurrs into a big blob.
(Coney and friends are also sprinkled about.)

Looks great. To be totally **** though, the 3rd picket in from each side is angled. You have the shadow for those 2 both facing the wrong way. The shadow would angle the same so that it mirrors the picket, not be just an extension of the picket.

That's all my eagle eye could spot.

Danny, thanks, made the corrections.
That's the kind of help I was looking for.
