Nothing much as changed since last time, I've decided to go less for the outline approach to the textures and paint them a bit more without having to rely on line drawing, I think it looks nicer, the line drawing textures didn't look as good as I would have liked, I have still used line drawings but more conservatively and only where I think it would really benefit for example I did a line-art for the wood grain in the coffins and the cracks on the skull, I think that used minimally like that it really works and looks nice, without it being a crutch (before I was using outlined for a lack of confidence in painting my textures so I was kind of relying on it where-as now I'm using it when I think it will actually compliment the texture).
I got rid of the horse because after fully texturing it, it just didn't really blend in the the ground well enough, and the only reason I was going to use it was because I thought it would look cool with the outline drawing style I was using before but scrapping that gave me more reason to get rid of the horse. I think that having gotten rid of the horse the environment actually works better compositionally now, it flows really nicely I think, there is a nice curve around the track, the dust path and the buildings' alignment.
