Initial Thumbnails- Temple Scene

For this scene I designed a few thumbnails. The scene is right after Mowgli gets rescued by Bageera and Baloo. Contrary to the movie, Bageera and Baloo actually get the assistance of Kaa, a 30 foot long rock python. They are at an abandoned temple where the troop of monkeys have kept Mowgli captive. 

I want to capture all these elements in my illustration. The exerpt from the book that I want to illustrate is below, after he has been saved, with bageera, Baloo and all the monkeys around them in the temple 

'Mowgli turned and saw the great Python's head swaying a foot above his own.

"So this is the manling," said Kaa. "Very soft is his skin, and he is not unlike the Bandar-log. Have a care, manling, that I do not mistake thee for a monkey some twilight when I have newly changed my coat."

"We be one blood, thou and I," Mowgli answered. "I take my life from thee tonight. My kill shall be thy kill if ever thou art hungry, O Kaa."'
