JULY CONTEST: Design a book cover for the Wizard of Oz

JoshuaDages

@Ruth-Tripp Thanks Ruth! I usually do my thumbnails with pencil and paper and then scan them into Photoshop for the rest. I haven't used Procreate, but it looks like a lot of fun. I have been learning how to create my own brushes in Ps and used a few from Lee White's brush class to get the lighting effect I wanted. Then it was just a matter of playing with layer modes and such! Thanks again!

@Eric-Droke This is very original.
How did you do it? What did you use?

JoshuaDages

@cathy-spee Very unique! I really like the look of this. It makes me think of a those old (still around?) sticker books. Good job!

@sufitch thank you! Your piece is gorgeous too! Some parts are so deliciously textured, I feel like I can feel the pencil in my hand and other portions look maybe digital(?) How do you get that affect?

sufitch

@Ruth-Tripp thank you for the compliment! I'm actually really old school. My piece is all hand done with just touch ups done in photoshop. Yours looks digital, but still has a great hand drawn feel to it. I love the concept too. Well done!

@Coley Thank you. This contests always make me so nervous. It's hard to put yourself out there.

@cathy-spee many of us get nervous about it, I hear ya. Especially when critique arena/judging starts. At least we’re all normal and together in our collective anxiety haha. It is hard to put yourself out there but you’re doing it !
