I didn't want to fill the whole page with them as I thought it would make the image unbalanced, so I decided to give a reason for the viewers eyes to shift there. For this I decided to represent Simon and Garfunkel, looking on at this silent mass as they "prayed to the neon god they made." However, I received more feedback that they weren't really necessary, and since I received the same feedback about the smaller being in the second sketch I decided it was probably sound advice, which is how I got to my final composition.
