Decisions

I decided that the illustration should have dramatic lighting. It will be late afternoon with the sun coming in at a low angle from the right and to the rear of the scene. This will provide bright highlighted surfaces and deep, almost black shadows on both the locomotive and the billowing smoke. The first step is to add the deep shadows to the picture as seen below.
