Due to installation work being done in the bathroom (other side of the wall from my desktop), I've been continuing work on this illustration on a portable setup: MacBook Air 11" + Intuos4 Medium. A bit cramped and looser control than the Cintiq 21UX, but serviceable in a pinch.
Added a (very) rough sketch of the background layout, with some approximate tone / color values filled in. In line with the short story, the setting is in a park, which is in a city, which is on a orbital space colony (hence the interesting angles and scenery in the distant background). Not exactly a backdrop suited for a first attempt, but it's what the illustration calls for.
Will be experimenting with the pen tool for the architectural lines.
