              @Dima-Eichhorn - I love this idea! (I wish I had thought of it.) I could see the concept right away with the way he is posed and the monkey shadow behind him. You did a great job mixing reality and make-believe.

                  @fullerj Thank you a lot. I like your image. Especially the lighting in his stomach.

                        I had a lot of fun with this one. I'm hoping for more story prompts like this in the future!

                          @jaredhdesign Very nice! I like the drawing, rendering, color palette and the expressions of your characters. This is very clean and nice!

                                Here's my submission. This was a really interesting challenge to try and think of the context as if a client came up to you and gave you a narrative.

                                I had a few different sketches and what I think might have been more interesting illustrations, but I scrapped them all and went back to what I might want to see to help give context to the whole thing if I were to read it in an editorial. So hopefully that's what ultimately comes across.

                                P.S. Did anyone else have to re-draw Bongo? I swear it was difficult to not make him look either evil or creepy lol.

                                  @jdubz Love, love your lighting! ...and my Bongo definitely started out creepy. I hated it so much that I took down my first entry and redid the entire thing ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

                                      @sarahlash @deborah-Haagenson thanks I appreciate the kind words. @sarahlash I think this was monkey #4. I think the last one I ended up repainting near the end because he just didn't fit the mood at all ๐Ÿ˜›

                                        This month was super challenging for me! So many solid fails in my sketchbook that I'm hoping will translate to better projects in July โ™ฅ And I've LOVED looking through everyone's take on Will's prompt. You all are amazing. JuneSVS_Yoon.png

                                          I really enjoyed the prompt this month. Hereโ€™s my entry of a clever little monkey scheming his way over to a tree full of ripe oranges.

                                          As always, best of luck to everyone and I canโ€™t wait to see whatโ€™s brought Into the arena!
