Before our last group crit session i had these three images:
I was pleased with my illustrations so far but i knew there were some changes that needed to be made. After some feedback and a couple of tweaks I am happy with how my images are looking and also how they sit together.
I adjusted the text on the cover so that it filled more space and it looks so much better in my opinion. |
There were no suggestions for changes to this image but i did take away two of the clouds from the top of the image because they were cut off so much it looked odd. |
Overall i am happy with the outcomes, they are playful and fun and i think they reflect the book quite well. If i were to do it again though i would think about using a different medium, perhaps watercolours so that the image was less flat. Although i am much better at digital colouring now, i do not think i will ever create purely digital images, which is fine! I tried a little watercolour for these images, just for a bit of texture and depth and it has worked ok but not as strongly as i would have hoped or if i had just used watercolours. Lessons learned!
