Honestly, it took quite a time to get there! Personally for this project I went through 3 completely different ideas for key art, including this one. Talking about it, it's crazy to mention how much changes were done it. Final result still could use a bit better color balance and white levels, but even then the quality of this art for such project is more than enough.
