I think I'm happy with this for the most part, though the scan has messed with things again. I think Hellboy and the Werewolf have escaped the worst of it, but the flames around the skulls and parts of the background don't look quite right when compared to the original picture. But let's start with the positives! The shading on Hellboy's skin and the Right Hand of Doom have come out quite nicely, as the shadows are nice and distinctive, which can sometimes be an issue on red areas. All of his clothes seemed to have had the shading stay distinctive too, and the worn effect on the collar seems to have worked as well. I think the Werewolf is ok here; the difference between the shaded areas of his fur and the lighter parts could have been stronger, but for the most part the way that I drew the fur is still visible. The grass and leaves appear to be quite similar to the IRL picture, and the differentiation in the colours on the leaves is quite strong, as are the multiple blades of grass. I think the biggest victims of the scan issues are the flames around the skulls and the dark green in the background. The flames look much paler here than in the IRL version, and the multiple shades of green that I used on them have become homogenised somehow. And I can't quite put my finger on what exactly is wrong with the background green, but it definitely looks weird to me somehow. Still, I think the picture works as a whole though, and I'm glad that the two main focal points have ended up looking good.
