I added text to the Tin Man sketches and finished up Scarecrow on my Wizard of Oz-themed hand typeface experiments. Hoping to paint these over the coming week.
I'm not sure how I want to handle Cowardly Lion. In every version except the classic movie, hes an actual lion and not a guy dressed up as a lion. I'll probably end up going the lion route, but part of me wants to play up the human angle and have him some freakishly terrified person who is wearing a plastic lion mask to scare people (which depending on how it was drawn, would either be psychologically disturbing or downright hilarious).
These are really good. My suggestion for the lion is that since all the other characters are human the lion should also be. The whole mask thing is a very interesting idea. Your characterizations are complex as usual. I like.
