speaking from experience - alterations after crit

Due to the cash for gold illustration not working/following the same style of the other illustrations i reworked it.

       

original

altered.

however i still did not agree with amber, it was difficult to illustrate painting rocks in gold without using colour and i thought the coloured version, although not fitting with the other illustrations worked best.
I also tried just adding a splash of colour, a slight brush stroke to kind of show the rocks being painted however i still felt it didnt work as well as the original
