Thumbs during class.
One concept of a garage in the future where the technology is so advanced, entire teams need to be put onto fixing/maintaining one.
2nd concept that I think I'm going with: Japanese styled bar/club/restaurant in Meiji/Tokugawa eras. Trying not to get caught up in the limitations of authentic architecture.
Edit: Did a value study... I'm not getting the feel I want, I don't know if it's because the underlying line work is in ballpoint or what.
Edit again: Some digital modifications

Changes: contrast, moved the people closer in toward the middle, extended canvas on the right to give the guy some breathing room, added another lantern for visual balance, removed chef guy.
2nd pass

Changes: changed the direction the guy was looking in (maybe it was just me, but the focus was more on the guys talking to each other than the guy coming in before, correct me if i'm wrong, because it changes the whole story), added another fatter lantern for variety, cleaned up the crap in the foreground to a cleaner countertop, removed some of the dangling wires.
Those value studies are sweet. But I still feel like the "messiness" of the drawing takes a way from how sweet it is. I think you can still get that gestural feel with the energy while giving you lines more INTENT. I think that is the problem for me. The gestures do not look intentional. If you clean it up, I think you have it spot on.
