Street test model detailing

 

This is a quick test I did on the rough background model to see how much detail was necessary.

I want to keep the background simple and stylized so it doesn't draw attention away from the characters.

 Here's the original design for comparative purposes.

For the model I've simplified this design further, and as far as colour goes I'd like to develop it further to find the right tone so it compliments the final rendering of the characters.
