          @MichaelaH I like how the foot is breaking the border. I also like how you placed the type. As far as color I would just start to throw local color on and play around with it. I see a lot of cool colors for the background and warm colors on your character. It will help pop them off the screen.

                            @MichaelaH These are so nice! I think, along with the cover, this project will make a great portfolio piece!:smiling_cat_face_with_open_mouth:

                                @MichaelaH unfortunately not, we were planning to though, but you know, something came up and we had to change our plans. That’s how life works. πŸ˜„ but I really want to go next year.
                                Will you be there?

                                    @MichaelaH I hope so! Have fun there, I was at Bologna only once, in 2014, and it was an absolutely amazing experience. Back then, I worked in a publishing house as creative manager, so I looked at the whole thing with a different eye, but still, it was great and I hope to be there again. πŸ™‚
