False Hope (?)

Alright, this one's done for now. I wanted a chaotic texture, so I made extensive use of palette knives. I'll let it dry and then do a bit of touch up and glazing. I left the vultures out for now, but I might add them during the glaze phase. The working title "False Hope" doesn't make very much sense without them, but titles are arbitrary and easy to change. I like the sky the way it is, and I'm concerned about comprimising the mood by getting too precious with details. We'll see. Thanks for looking!
