It’s funny to me that I was putting so much thought into (one of) the final aesthetics of the chapter this relatively early on in the concept art. The top left section wouldn’t be seen until the final few pages of the chapter! I had a particularly strong visual concept for it even this early, it seems.

Since Foundation B is underground, I had a lot of fun developing the various little gazebo elevators that’ll take visitors down to it (though most people will ACTUALLY be taking them down to the water park that’s above Foundation B).

The start of the chapter involves more use of dual-tone colors that wouldn’t really get as much focus again until the tail-end of the chapter, in the more open tunnels next to the waterfalls. Thankfully, by the time I reached that second instance, I felt much more confident in my use of dual-tones; the early parts felt a lot more muddy. All part of the learning process.
