Color/ Marker Comp

My color comp of the lawnmower running over a branch! I'll definitely have to reconsider some compositional issues. Some of the comments I got were that the sound wasn't coming across very well. It could also be mistaken that the lawnmower hasn't yet gone over the branch which would defeat the purpose of it making a sound. I do like the perspective of the composition, but it may have been more indicative of sound to compose it in a way that seemed like the mower was coming towards the viewer.... hmm sounds like more complications. I'm going to try and indicate some sort of vibration, maybe smoke or something being exhausted from the mower. Also someone suggested that adding a human shadow would help to position the person. We shall See!!!!
