"Sleigh !" - An Elf Motivation campaign -

Here it is, my first Jazza's Challenge of the Month participation.

As I said on the COTM Dec topic (first WIP link), I wanted to put my poster in situation on a bulletin board of the workshop. As I sketched my idea around the children's joy with they new toy, I thought about a motivational campaign with different version of the same headline ("Sleigh ! Their joy is your job").
So I finally ended up with the idea of a few motivationnal posters to motivate the elves, especially on monday mornings :p.
Other administrative stuff are pined down the corkboard (behind the motivational posters) to make the board more relevant and lively.

It took me so long to do that. I hope it's alright :D. Please feel free to give me any feedback. Good luck to everyone !

Here are two posts on the Dec COTM topic for my Work In Progress :

I really like the overall "used" feel of the piece. It really feels like it exists, in a real world kind of way. The only thing that struck me as a little odd was how the posters and notes feel very three dimensional, while the cork-board feels very flat. Overall, I really like it though! Good luck!

Woah, you really did do a corkboard :D You were right with your review on my work, it does seem more effective with the posters a little more packed together, and with the main ones being bigger. The three big posters are a clear focal point, so well done on the composition!

I love your clean linework, I'm not all that familiar with digital drawing to be honest, but there's definitely a set style in your piece. And I also love the texture of your cork board, being the only part without lineart, it really allows the posters to pop out. The shading on the gold plaque is also really good, you really captured the shine, and the writing actually does look like it's engraved! Oh, and I know it's only a small thing, but nice touch with the curls of the paper, makes everything look less static and flat.

So well done, again my favourite part of this would probably be the composition, everything fits together so nicely! And good luck in the competition ^_^!
