        @s1h0k I really like this ! The colours are relaxing to look at and the lifework is really clean. Just noticed the cat daring itself to go for the fish πŸ˜‚

          @jdubz I started with thumbnails on paper, and then worked out the line drawing & perspective digitally on top of one of those. I printed the line drawing out and put it under a sheet of watercolor paper on my lightbox and did 90% of the color with watercolor. Then scanned back in to Procreate and adjusted color and shadow in multiply layers, and fixed up detail and lettering. I'm not super happy with the brush texture I used for that, and I'm wondering if it looks as awkward to other people as it does to me.

            Hello there, thank you to those who commented to help me with my original prompt idea. This new idea popped up recently, so here’s a different take on an inn. Posting without the template, since it looks a bit blurry to me with the template (using Procreate). Everyone designed so many amazing and inspiring buildings this month. πŸ™‚

                So many great entries! But my hat is off to you guys who are able to cram in sooo much detail! I used get lost in my detailing and and get overwhelmed or bored and ultimately give up, so good on you too keep at it!

                        "The Gargantu Inn"
                        (I like the blue but it might be a bit crazy so I figured I'd include both.)

                          @KathrynAdebayo This is wonderfully creative! It looks like a pleasant spot for our hero to stay for the night.

                                @Tiffany-Thomas I think this goes so well with your traveler! It adds a fun twist to her journey. I'd like to see how she would react to this Inn and the events that would ensue, hehe.

                                    Ahh...I'm so intimidated. I've always been a creator but I just started pursuing children's illustration this year. This is my first month taking classes, so I figured I'd go all in and try the contest as well! I believe I committed the newbie sin of over-illustrating, but it was too fun not to. Hope you like the GingerB&B! πŸ™‚

                                        @Jeremiahbrown Both are amazing as always! I love the tiny little characters which give it scale. Looks like a fun (and maybe a little crazy) place to stay (haha).
