book project... process and planning

the story is supposed to be about a man in the army who crashes and ends up in the hospital and then he becomes depressed. then this little girl who's dad is in the army and she lives there as well meets him and cheers him up and then he decides to leave the army because she showed him that he would be happier outside of it.

its going alright. i've had a lot of trouble trying to get the girl that i have to look younger, smaller and stand up because she is older and riding a bike in my original picture. also trying to get the man to look sad and hurt because he is walking and smiling in the original picture. i'm mostly just having trouble trying to manipulate the people to look how i want them to in my story.
