Reworking My Earlier Smoke & Fire Painting

After this smoke & fire painting, I have taken out my previous one to rework. It was badly done and really has to be improved. This painting shows workmen inspecting the furnance melts of Singapore's earlest iron and steel mill.

This is a difficult painting to paint well as it has many small changes in tones and values. This below is the WIP after some reworking. It still requires further tweaking.
