Substantial brief - Secret 7 - At last REDO

Due to technical difficulties, I had to redo my at last design. Which actually proved harder than I imagined because I stupidly left it too long and couldn't really remember how I did it the first time. So again that's my fault.

But to try and help me along, I used my hand as a template for the hand that I previously did in my first attempt. This was actually was very successful and I think if I use a hand again I will definitely be doing this as it means the image will be more anatomically correct without stealing someone else's clipart. 

I looked at the little image that I had left from my initial design and tried to go with the similar colour scheme, but I had lost all of the colours that I had saved onto my swatches, yay. So I went with more pinks and purples than I did in my initial design. 

I'm not sure if I prefer this final design more or less than my first one. I suppose they're very similar, so there isn't much difference to pick on to say whether is superior. But I do like with what I have produced, as I think it links to the sensual mood of the song, especially the curves in the smoke. I like how I've used a limited colour palette that jumps off the page/screen again as it links to the mood. But maybe I should have produced more initial roughs and ideas, as I put forward one of the first things that I thought of when I listened to the song. Although you could argue it's what my visual response to the song was, which is usually the first thing that you think of.
