The style that you have chosen to present this image in is perfect! It captures the spirit of both the wild things and of Max. I can really see their characters being portrayed in this! Keep up the great work!

"Good Times"

Ahh, yes, I remember this book now. From when I was little :D. Personally I love it, except that Max's nose could be a little wider and shorter. That's just my personal opinion. I only gave you a 9 because I feel I give too many 10s. Btw, how does this kid get into the land? I forgot.

"How is this getting 10's?"

He ripped off a wildly popular children's book that's being made into a (probably) wildly popular movie. Newgrounders, you really need to stop throwing out 10's because you think something looks cool.

"Oh Man Did I Love That Book!"

by: Alter-native

date: October 14, 2009

I even danced to the song "Wild Thing" even so that is unrelated subject matter.

Chances are you probably seen the trailer for the new movie and thus got inspired to do this. Regardless of possible media pandering, this is a nice piece. It might not be so wide and extraordinary on a scale of grandmaster epic-ness. It might not have a wide variety of colors to induce a level of realism ala Alex Ross. It might not be as surreal or mind screwing as M.C. Escher or Salvador Dali. It might not be as extravagantly experimental like Van Gogh or Picasso. It might not raise such questions and controversy the way Jackson Pollock or Andy Warhol could do. But I do see much effort put into each individual strand of hair on Carol's mouth and chin. I have to say I truly wish to go to the place where the wild things are. That, and it is very cute.

P.S. I don't if the movie is going to do well considering the fact the way most movies based on children's books turn out, especially one as short as the book in question. The trailer looks mighty fine though.

"Beautiful and Timely"

by: Poeticman7

date: October 13, 2009

It's a very excellent piece of art.
It mimics the Sendak book but adds a hint of original flavor.
I like it for it seems more of an update than an exact copy which is always nice.
But only when done right and by George I think you've done a rather splendid job.

"Ah, the nostalgia."

by: gleegleep

date: October 12, 2009

I remember "Where the Wild Things Are" when I was a kid. You do a very good drawing of the Max and Carol characters. I would've had a different background (e.g., a jungle background like in the story), but other than that, this is great. :D :D
