      I guess I just need to add some details like the gnomes in the cockpit

          I probably jumped to eagerly into this one again. I feel like the concept there just not sure I delivered it well enough. I’m really pleased with the outcome but if anybody has any suggestions or feedback I’m still open to it. I will probably submit in the next day or so

            @Asyas_illos Aww, thank you for letting me know! I love the added movement and the little details in your update. The gnomes are adorable. Maybe add more little details like a welcome rug, poster on the wall, doorway lamp, mailbox, gnome, outdoor shower, etc. to make it feel more lived in, gnomey, and add a little more variety in color? This is my favorite of your versions so far!

              @Jeremiahbrown those are excellent suggestions thank you, I did want it to have a more of a secret hideout kinda feel to it, so I’ll try and incorporate some more elements that might help it read better.

                So I replaced the switches with a tree branch lever and I know the guys said you shouldn't need to rely on words, but I added a sign… should I take it down?

                    @AlliFaith I do too. I imagine reading a story with my kids and if they came across an image like this, they would love to read the sign and would get a kick out of it. But I don’t want to be overlooked strictly on the fact that there words describing it.

                      @Asyas_illos there were signs in the design an inn, so I don’t think it’s necessarily a bad thing to have some words in the image. I think if it needs text to explain what’s happening that would make it a weaker image. I don’t think your sign is explaining the image, but contributing to it.

                          @Asyas_illos I really like this batch of illustrations, the simplicity and the design, and humour, I like that you added the witch to the previous illustration submitted and so the added gnomes make sense to be included in this one. I think it is ok to add words as it is part of the humour. I think the addition of the witch and the gnomes work because they give the the tree a sense of scale.

                            These are great! I love the “carved out” style that leaves the little chips of color…

                                This is kinda an odd color scheme do you guys think it works though?

                                      @Asyas_illos This is coming along great! This golden yellow foliage version is my favorite! I'm a bit thrown off or confused by the scale of the bird compared to the tree, and the gnomes. And my eye keeps going straight for the bird, rather than focusing on the tree. Maybe the bird could still be in the tree, but holding on, so it's not so prominent? Also, maybe tone down its bright blue color so it doesn't draws my eye away from your main character, the tree. Such an awesome idea. Wish I'd thought of it:)

                                            @Asyas_illos I love the flying house idea. I think this colour scheme is my favourite but I agree that the scale of the bird is a bit off - It's a bit big. It's making it the lead character a bit. Perhaps if the gnomes were larger and the bird a bit smaller? I'm just thinking about the scale of the gnomes to the doors - if the gnome sitting on the rock stood up and tried to pull the lever, would he/she be able to reach it? Although I do feel like I'm taking a little bit of the joy away from this lovely imaginary world by trying to make it more to scale with real-life, so feel free to ignore! (especially as I'm the WORST at creating clear focal points) 😂
