I didn't want to change things up too much. Just build on the original ideas. I love the idea of the tin man being this huge behometh robot. A kind protective spirit. With the lion, making him smaller felt right. Just to push the whole cowardly theme home. I pictured him going into a bezerker rage when he finally gains his courage. Like a tazmanian devil or rabid wolverine. The rest are pretty standard. Although I did made wicked witch young and sexy, just to create a direct contrast with Glinda, the white witch. Plus evil is sexy.
Looking back now, it would have interesting to push the whole technology vs magic theme of OZ. Make it really steampunk. Maybe if I had an extra week :)
Thanks for dropping by!

Awesome stuff mr lambe!
I like the tin man, but the wicked witch is awesome. The wizard and Dorothy are really cool too.
The wicked witch is the hottest thing I've seen you draw.
Too bad our own WOZ game couldn't look like this.
I love your style!
And I like the fact that the scarecrow is missing an arm. :)
Hee Steve Lambe,
Really awesome stuff. Is this all vector?
Do you have some good links or tips for painting in ps?
wow!!! awesome work!
This stuff is A-MA-ZING ! Wow ! My personal favorite is the Lion !
Hey Steve!
All I have to say is WOW WEE! I've always wanted to see OZ as a cartoon. If someone used your designs it would be a sure hit!
I love all of them, but really dig the Scarecrow, Tin Man, and of course the Wicked Witch!
I also dig pushing the whole tech vs magic theme, and making it really steampunk!!!
These look fan-freekin-tastic Steve!
So whatever became of this project? Anything?
ya know... it's never too late to go back and re-design these as you would have liked. *hint hint. I wanna see some full on Lambey Steampunk glory!
Hey Steve. So you like illustrating metaphorical philosophies of pre-war populist politics? Well, then ... I can't complain, cause yer pretty damn good at what you do. Yes!
Wow..these are great! i've always loved Wizard of Oz, and your designs are awsome. Love the variety of shapes and colours!
