I have an idea already of an close up of night crawler high up on a city skyscraper, with the viewer looking down on him and the streets below. Yes, he is looking up at the view and most probably going be grinning. I have a feeling though Steves most likely not going to like this pose though, considering my halloween brief, I can hear it now "what is he looking at?".
So going try out some silhouette poses to start with.
Think it will be good to have the colour palette as Blue > Purple > Orange (NC skin > Teleportation smoke/dark tones in skin and clothing > orange glow of street lights below.)
Also blue and orange and complementary colours, but its going to be a bit odd since orange is a warm colour and always want to be drawn to the front and usually the viewer is drawn to the warm colours first, so going make sure to either dim it down or make it bit more saturated than the blue.
But then again the glowing eyes (like in my Moodboard below) may draw the viewers attention to the eyes and face first anyway.
What I would say is once you've sketched out your idea, it would probably be a good idea for reference to set up a biped or C.A.T. rig and some boxes/basic geometry in 3ds max to nail the perspective on the figure and bgd. You could also try out camera lens angles and lighting.
