choose the style you are better at!

I prefer to have the illustrations as Vector Graphics (preferably .ai)

THE STORY:
Lemon chocolate milk

Tully the cat lived in a great place
Beautiful family, 5 brothers and sisters
Different species, but all of them animals

One brother is the rabbit Nivnav
The second is funny looks like a turtle
A third brother is the frog,
To Quack only he knows

One we forgot! Oops terrible!

Also little sister he has! she is a little bird
Her name is Zipi Zafzafa
Her tiny voice and charming
And coos: "tsif Tzifod"

grrrr drr ggrr (gurgling suitable rhythm).
Meow say when hungry.
And what cats eat ?
Delicious milky drinks

A little cream, a little butter
White milk, and hot cheese
All good looks fantastic
All healthy, for the cat

They were called for dinner
And running immediately came
Settled at the table
Everyone with nicely raised tail

They ate slowly and calmly
Not devour the plate!
Only Tzipi not taking
No tasting the delicacies :(

What happened, asking cat
the little one said urgently?
Not tasty? Missing sugar?
Maybe the color is not familiar?

And she replies in an excited voice
Very sweet and exciting
But adds security
I feel like chocolate milk with lemon!

Big Tully hears that
And asks right away to stop
Sweet and sour are enemies
do not mix them!

But she stands her ground
Her opinion here is strong
Lemon is well founded
And chocolate is also good alone

If the individual are delicious
Together there will be many times!

Hear this the bigger cat
And he ran into the kitchen
The purpose is to show
That small sisters are wrong!

He brings a nice big cup
Dairy, well rinsed
There cocoa, add milk
Do not skip any step

put sugar from above
It would be supremely delicious
Mix again and again
Thick, sweet, good chocolate

So opens the refrigerator
Selects fresh lemon
Squeezing into a glass cup
serves to screaming Zipi

Zipi with eager anticipation
take the glass to her mouth
tasting small gulp
It is enough to taste

Others look
And the eyes of judges
Is it delicious
Or is it nonsense?

She closes her eyes
tastes again
She playfully informs
Try for yourselves and then you'll know!

Hi All,

Just to clarify:

The drawing I'll choose will be according to what is the best illustration in my opinion. Afterwards, I might take another freelancer to do the whole 15 drawing, based on the price, speed etc.,

So if I ask you what is your regular price, do not think that a high/low price will affect me choosing the winner here...

Hi,

I'm sorry that I can't clarify for each drawing what I liked and what I didn't. All of them are great, naturally, but taste is subjective. So I give the rating based on personal attraction to that specific illustration.

So far, I have a favorite and two runner-ups, which I gave 5 stars to them.

I would like to offer a tip for who ever didn't win. So if you'll offer a buy-out (an option for me to buy without giving the contest prize) I'll consider buying it (and not use it!) as a tip for you participation.

Thank you all,
David

Hi,

I will automatically reject any entry that is not what I asked for!

-------------------------
Read the short story(!), illustrate one scene from the story that includes:
THE CAT AND HIS LITTLE SISTER THE SMALL BIRD.
----------------------

A generic drawing of a cat would not suffice because I can't know neither the originality nor the talent of the freelancer to draw a scene!
