@Chip-Valecek Out of time!! Thanks for all of the help everyone! So many great entries!

Calling the new Dorothy done - i am so glad i restarted her - Thank you all for your help! I appreciate All of the feedback i received, it has made it a better piece for sure!

I made it Finished not perfect for sure - so many great pieces here!!

Out of time Good luck everyone! so many great pieces here

so much detail lost.....

Yup...another Wizard of Oz piece ... i'm getting there though This is a work in progress - this one really gave me trouble at first but i finally hit on this composition this weekend and i'm liking it - i composed it so that they are facing to left in contrast to most of the other Oz pieces - my idea is that the crow is noticing Dorothy and crew coming toward the trees - curious if the composition is working for folks? Still lots of work to do - any feedback always appreciated

@lee-white - I think these might be the two best for me

So many incredible mermaid pieces so far!! Here is what i've come up with - calling it finished not perfect

This is pretty rough and scribbly with lots of work yet left to do... but i am wondering if the image is working for anyone? is there a story coming through? The SVS rabbit was kind of a cheeky place holder for the farmer while i sorted out the composition..but i think he has grown on me Any feedback is always very much appreciated!!

Hope everyone is not sick of my Wizard of Oz pieces - but here is yet another(got a lot done on these snow days!) This is the Mouse Queen that helps to save the Cowardly Lion form the poppy field - think i'm close to finish on this - but i think i'm not seeing it clearly anymore and cannot see the obvious anymore - any feedback would be much appreciated

@blamillo I have no skills in this area (besides recently starting to read graphic novels)but I did want to mention that I did stumble over reading those speech bubbles that Braden mentions..I read from left to right - my guess would be most folks would...it is a strong instinct to find the left most speech bubble and start from there...super impressive that you finished this! Really nice work!

@LauraA Here is a link to where someone shared his favorite five Nikko Brushes. https://folio.procreate.art/discussions/10/28/22330 The pencil is in there i'm sure - Nikko is on gumroad but i could not find the pencil in the packs there - i got the pencil with one of his online art classes but i think he gives them away freely - here is another link of a bunch of procreate brush resources - Nikko is in there (probably the same five brushes though)and a bunch of others too https://www.creativebloq.com/features/best-procreate-brushes/2

@Coreyartus Awesome!!

@TessaW this is a very well done video...thank you for sharing it!

• i'm so surprised Alphonso's video is still up ....I had a student years ago that would always forget where he left things.... he came to me twice in his 2 years in the program and told me who he believed had stolen his item.... he would have a litany of evidence of intent and reasoning behind why he thought this person or that had stolen his gear...he would get so worked up...even when i would find his lost item which had not been stolen at all he would still hang on to his resentment and anger.... it felt like having been "wronged" activated a part of the brain that could not be rational - so good to see this video of someone calmly talking about this...though i don't understand and did not enjoy the negative inktober/Jake stuff from the past that he mentioned...but i think it maybe gave him some credibility with the haters...anyways...i've never been interested in Inktober other than enjoying seeing what fellow SVSr's are up to with it but i did just preorder Jake's book - a small way to show support...this whole thing is such a bummer on so many levels..

@mamadraw I love and hate my Paperlike...i never had problems with having to repeat a hand gesture or with palm rejection before i put it on..but i do like the texture of it and have kept it on...it does get beat up very quickly...

@Kim-Hunter That is excellent! You will love it!

@JoshuaDages I had this picked as making the top 16 - i think it is a very nice piece - only feedback would be that if you make the image postage stamp size that the title does not come across well - light on dark or dark on light are our only real options so maybe try white text or fade the green glow above the walls to be a much lighter emerald green so the text pops more? I think text that is not curved would look good too though the curve does not bother me... it just does not pop .... i really like it though

@Laurel-Aylesworth Congratulations!! That is so great!

@Gary-Wilkinson Number one grabs my eye the most. I think it is the cleanest composition, quickest read, and most appealing. Three would be my second pick but one really stands out for me... i think the joy of it may be a big part of its appeal.

@miranda-hoover this is a really cool idea! For feedback I was thinking it would be helpful to increase the scale of the foreground to make it easier to include details and have the dragon fly look like a knight - I did a super quick draw over with a joust ready dragonfly to show what I was thinking - one other tiny thing is that the tail does not read as “dragonfly “ to me with the smooth curve to it - feel free to ignore - I’m sure it will turn out great with whatever you end up doing
