Hell yeah - I even went back and made the elevator interior the yellow from the previous set, to make it clear they changed scenery.
That's one good thing about Tex's design, as much as I can hate the dark color washing out the lines: the mane has GREAT constrast - pops, like you said.
And heh, yeah, I had the same thought you did - even threw in that steel girder while coloring 2, to drive a bigger wedge between Tex and the others. Glad the backgrounds work! This speed-painting shiz is getting to be actually fun??

Awww yeaaaah it's been mentioned a few times already but *man* I love that lighting shift. The colors change with the tone and it's as appealing as it is artistic.
The opening shot baller as hell, love that you drifted from your single-color overlay to put a reddish hue on some of the lighting, there. Makes a big difference. And DAMN does her mane stand out really well here, too. Pops, puts her into focus.
I like the natural distance Tex puts between herself and the others. And that last frame is really really somethin', too -- YEAH the hamster ball lmaooo but the shot you chose is powerful af. Three blue dorks just...starin' in wonder at it all. Doesn't matter whether or not Church was actually there or if he remembers it, it's the first time as far as HE'S concerned. Paints a nice picture.
You went all out on the backgrounds, though, my gawd. I adore every shot, and the story it puts together for us. The lighting is choice, the perfect blend of detailed and blurry, and the little bits of additional color you throw in in here 'n there...damn, breathes a lot of life into something that is, ironically and perfectly, lifeless and haunting. Very awesome set-piece.
