      @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.

                      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.

                                  @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.

                                          @carriecopadraws Great job picking a lesser known scene from the book that is still really eye-catching! I love the use of purple and the subtle tornado and city in the background.
