Week 8 (Démie)

I didn't like what I had done last week. Didn't feel on the right track...

I found another idea, based on a photo ref.

I was ready to post this one around 16h, but then, I saw Mr Vinh's comment on Kris's work... and I could tell that I did the "too much detail / camouflage texture" too... So I kept working...

So I guess that's what was actually asked. And it does make sense. I did have a better overview of the thumbnails and took the opportunity to play even more with the tones, mostly between the horse, the horse equipment, the rider's outfit and the background. I mostly used 3 tones (25/50/75%) but here and there, I did used 35/40% or 60/65% to make sure that nothing "disappears" because of bad value planing :P
