#The Wizard of Oz: Tin Man

[cinderacequeen]

The speed at which Scarecrow and Tin Man denied Dorothy volunteering herself to go next in the Nome King’s twisted guessing game.

You’re the best friends anybody ever had. And it’s funny, but I feel as if I’ve known you all the time. But I couldn’t have, could I?

Listen, as someone who's favorite movie of all time is the Wizard of Oz, seeing the OG OZ gang with Dorothy's book canon silver shoes makes me fucking cry with joy.

Never in my life would I ever thought that I would see Dorothy, Scarecrow, Tin Man, Lion and Toto again on the big screen.

I am officially the happiest person in the world

WICKED SPOILERS

I love the fact that The Wizard of Oz is literally Fiyero having to take care of a 12 year old girl who just wants to go home, her dog, his former college classmate, and a lion he once saved as a cub and now claims that made him a coward. Ah, all while looking for a way to keep the woman he loves safe and sound.

Dorothy is so tiny, Scarecrow and Tin Man fear losing her. 🥺

Two balloons might not actually be able to lift anyone, let alone an 8-year old, but since this IS Oz, all logic yeets out the window. 💀

An Instagram video with a similar idea, a husband and wife inspired this. 😆

I began the drawing back in May or June and am relieved to finally have finished it. I’m proud with how it came out, but Arceus, was I beginning to tire of seeing it.

If there are any mistakes-I’ve already noticed a few that I didn’t catch in the line art phase-oh well. 💀

At first I was proud of how Scarecrow, Dorothy and Tin Man came out, but now I’m not too sure about Tinny. I might redesign him a little next time I draw him. I also need to shrink Dorothy’s head; didn’t mean to make her forehead look so large, something I only caught during the coloring phase.

For Tinny’s and Scary’s designs, I combined aspects from Ray Bolger’s and Jack Haley’s versions of Scarecrow and Tin Man along with their 1986 and 2017 animated designs. Scarecrow’s adorable elf ears were inspired by an Instagram friend’s amazing interpretation of the lanky straw man! Tinny’s “boots” were also inspired by his Tin Man!

Dorothy’s design is mostly based off her 2017 design, just in my style. For their eye colors, I used the 1939 movie characters’ eye colors. Except Tin Man. Jack Haley had blue eyes, but I gave my Tinny green eyes. I didn’t want him to have the same color as Dorothy or Scarecrow. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Here's him meeting the Lion.

[nobodysdaydreams]

Haven’t seen the new Wicked movie yet, but I am forever impressed by the fact that someone saw the “Wizard of Oz” and was like:

“Hm. Yes. I see. Okay. The wicked witch and that scarecrow? They’re in love for sure.”

“The witch who sets him on fire?”

“It’s a complicated situation.”

Fans of the books might recall that the Tin Woodman lived in a standard castle in Marvelous Land of Oz and his tin castle wasn't introduced until Road to Oz. In this comic, it's been 4 years since the first adventure, so I figured he'd have the tin castle by now.

In the book, Billina says, "He built it because the old castle was too damp," but that doesn't make sense! Why would the Wicked Witch of the West's castle be damp? So, I decided it's the same castle. This gave me a fun design challenge of making a friendly-looking metal castle with the general shape of a spooky castle. I was inspired a bit by the eclectic nature of castle Duckula, though that probably isn't obvious.

My favorite depiction of the tin castle is probably Andy Hirsch's design in Kovac & Hirsch's Royal Historian of Oz, which incorporates corn cob towers, implying that he shares the castle with the Scarecrow.

The alderman joke is also from Road to Oz. Jack's line was spoken by Button-Bright and Logan's line was spoken by Dorothy Gale.
