        @cszoltan Great job! I think you def picked the right color-scheme. I just love these characters! Really great composition, too.

          Okay, I went out on a limb here. I went for a cover for an edition that's yet to be written. Maybe an alternative story I should try to write (ha-ha!) Anyway, here's mine.

              As a girl this story scared me, my illustration is scared me too!

                    @Chip-Valecek - Here's my effort for this month. I used the template as am clueless about digital art but huge apologies if I don't quite fit the size specifications, I tried to resize it accordingly but not sure if it's right. I will now have time to comment on all the fantastic entries for this month, so many amazing images! Well done everyone.

                        I kept waffling back and forth on whether to enter this month, but the most recent podcast really helped push me to enter regardless of whether I thought I would win or not. I'm always amazed and inspired by everyone's work here, and if not for SVS, this piece would not have existed in the world!

                        This is my interpretation of The Wizard of Oz if it happened in ancient Korea. I've included Dorothy (front and center wearing a common Hanbok), the Tiger (instead of the Lion since tigers are more prevalent in Korean stories), going counterclockwise, the Tinman dressed in a complete suit of armor, the scarecrow in peasant clothing, the Witch who's dressed in a traditional regal Hanbok wearing a shaman mask, and Toto who's a Jindo, a common breed in Korea. The yellow brick road is leading up to Emerald City which is fashioned in the style of a Korean palace. The title is in Korean on the top left.

                        Good luck to everyone who's entered, and kudos to you for constantly putting in the work. I see you! ❤
