@mag Absolute love the rendering here, and the muted, warm pallette.

[SethWolfshorndl]

@Ryan-Ehr So much to love here... the innovative composition, the limited palette, texture of the rendering.

It was a challenge, but I can’t say I didn’t enjoy it! so great to get people’s feedback in this forum... so helpful! Love all the designs

[SethWolfshorndl]

@mag You incorporated so many elements so well! This is easily one of my favorites so far. Some of the best and most unique character designs (and expressions!), really fun composition, eye-catching and playful typography, and really subtle use of texture and color. Wow.

@Jeremy-Ross thanks, Jeremy. Your comments were very helpful! I think I need to share my project sooner... I didn’t have much time to apply all the awesome feedback you guys gave me.

@cynthia-bowman - this is really atmospheric! Love it!

@KathrynAdebayo - this is a really clever design, The witch looks really sinister, well done.

My entry is intended as a fresh, modern cover to attract new middle grade readers to the story. The flying monkeys play a larger part in the book than the movie - whoever wears the golden cap can demand 3 wishes from them.

@Chris-Perry-0 - Hi there, yes just post your finished piece on this thread. The file size is usually meant to be less than 500k I think, but I’m not too tech savvy, @Chip-Valecek was extremely helpful when I asked him a few questions about reducing files sizes etc so maybe contact him or other SVS staff if you need more support.

[Lorna H]

@lucillustrations - The black and white on this image looks fantastic with the red highlights. A really eye catching and original book cover!

[SethWolfshorndl]

@Marta-Kitka The concept of this is so fresh! Merging the witch's hat with a tornado... genius! And your use of color to separate elements is perfect. Love the hand pose, too.
