On her journey to the wizard she’ll meet many people who will help guide her down the yellow brick road to the Emerald City where the Wizard lives.
I wanted to do a transition from black and white to color like the movie does. I also want it to maybe look more 2d and more drawn and use some of the illustrations from the original book.
