            Seeing all these great character designs here makes me realize how lazy I am. But here's my version anyways.

              To be honest, I've actually never read the book before this contest! I'm now somewhere in a middle and enjoying it greatly 🙂 oz_cover_mag.jpg

                  Hi all. I just started SVS two weeks ago. All of your designs are great and kind of intimidating. 🤖

                    @ryleygarcia this reminds me a bit like a video game. It is so very cheerful and I anticipate a great adventure on the edge of my toes.

                      @jimmybrewster don't worry about it. You get better by putting yourself out there and trying and learning as you go. 🙂

                            @Ayodraws love your style and the little monkeys holding up the sign! The cow reminds me of the movie Twister! Love it!

                              @miranda-hoover Very good! For me this is in the top 3 for sure at least based on the styles that appeal to me. This has a graphic novel type look and feel to it

                                @Eric-Droke I love this so much. The style is gorgeous and the storytelling here is so compelling. You've really captured something substantive. The graphic design is lovely too.

                                      @Ryan-Ehr These characters are adorable. I wish the road was a little yellower, but otherwise love it.

                                        Heyo! This is my first contest and I'm really happy to be participating. There are so many good covers in here! 😧 It's awesome and inspiring to see. I think I gotta step up my game next month... But I showed up and had fun (and finished!) so I'll take that for now 🙂 Thanks for looking!

                                            @Graham-Williams Thank you 😃 I almost went with a lighter color scheme, but there was something so fun about working with the green rim light.
