The first character that I'm critiquing is created by Vic Sherrick and can be found at http://sagevic.blogspot.com/. This hero is actually a team of characters named Wiz and Oz, in which Wiz stumbles upon a magical magicians hat that gives him the power to summer the giant bunny, Oz. The pair go on family friendly adventures solving problems and getting into trouble.
        One of my favorite parts of this combo of characters is the color scheme. The Hues of each character are mostly yellow, red, and blue, with a little black thrown in. Additionally, most of these colors are high in SATURATION giving both characters a bright and vibrant look. I think Hue's of each character complement the other well and that the AFFINITY between each character lets us know SUBCONSCIOUSLY that they are on the same team. I especially like the placement of the black magic wand and sunglasses on Wiz and how it goes with the black belt on Oz. I think the placement of the small things on characters is what can make them more interesting and I believe that has been done well on this duo.  The Brightness of the characters let us know that they are good natured and mostly likely the heros of any situation.
