LIFE DRAWING WEEK 6

I apologise for the poor quality and lack of week 7, a gremlin has run off with my camera.  I will sort it this week :)
I found this man incredibly difficult to draw.  He is short and stocky and has no neck and no curves.

THUMBNAILS, TIDIED UP AND VISIBLE

 Above, House on the Borderland.  I particularly want to go with the Easter Island type god-statues (no 1). (No, this wasn't my first idea, I work backwards across the page cos I'm a leftie and I hate smudging my work).
I also like the rocky outcrop in no 24.

 Above, Masque of the Red Death.
This story conjures up fantastic visions of both inside and outside the castle.  Inside the colour and decor should make it look opulent, but I am trying using balconies and stairs to give it a sense of space.  Im not used to working 16:9 and I'm finding it hard not to squash my image. I like 26 and 28 (outside) and 15 (inside).

Above, The Shunned House.  Ive come to a standstill with this one.  The house actually exists so it has either got to be exactly right or completely different to really work.  The cellar is more interesting, but again I am finding it hard to create space without getting boxed into a corner. No 8 could be lit interestingly.
