SCBWI portfolio showcase opinions please!

@Asyas_illos I love the Bunnies running with the puffer fish stars.
Overall I think these are lovely but red riding hood is the weakest due to lack of storytelling.
How many pieces can you bring this year?
Check out my art and tutorials :)

@carlianne only three I am going to do my best to bust a couple out! Thanks for the feedback
-
@Asyas_illos I quite like your Hansel & Gretel piece with the text (but I'm clueless about SCBWI requirements).
I also think that the pufferfish piece stands out the most due to the strong color palette.
-
@JQ thank you probably also because it’s absolutely ridiculous too, haha.
-
@Asyas_illos I love the bunnies running through the graveyard and Hansel and Gretel but you're probably right about not including one if you've noticed that no one has won with that kind of image before.
-
@Asyas_illos i prefer the first 3.
-
@Asyas_illos I think your strongest piece is #3, the weakest would be #4
-
Ok so far the dream race seems to be a favorite I think it really grabs your attention too so that’s a keeper I think I’ll try and rework the cemetery one with different characters because I just love that one too. Thank you for the feed back so far everyone!
-
I’m thinking about a ghostly encounter on the cemetery road, does this work as far as storytelling and composition? I may add a character or two in the distance also.
-
@Asyas_illos Great idea for the ghostly encounter! I like this idea.
-
@Asyas_illos Number 3 should definitely go. That color scheme will stand out and catch people’s eye.
Yes, it’s a competition, but the biggest thing to remember is this is a great opportunity to get your art in front of editors and agents. SCBWI tells them you’re focused and trying hard in the right direction, so they’ll have they’re guard down a little and browse. Now is a time people will come looking for your work.
What do you want people to pick you for? What sums up your style best?
Hansel and Gretel may not have won in the past, but if it’s the best summation of your work, then include it. Definitely a great piece.
-
@KevinTreaccar thank you for the feedback! @Valerie-Light hopefully I can pull it off!
-
Asya, do you have a website right now?
I think your bunny graveyard piece is strongest of these. -
@Asyas_illos I think this is a great idea. Plus it will allow you to include this piece as well as the puffer fish piece since they won’t both be on the rabbit road race theme
-
@Griffin haha yes everything I have is rabbits racing!!! Lol
-
@KathrynAdebayo no it’s next on the list for me!
-
Making progress, I had to stop and build a giant trampoline for my mother in law🥵
-
Ok any thoughts on this one before I set it aside and move on to something else?
-
I know this one wasn’t well received during critique arena but I’m running out of time and need a fail safe. I feel like it represents my style well , maybe I can spruce it up a bit? Any ideas, thoughts?
-
How many sparkles is too much? Lol did I over do it?
