Initial Character Ideas

Here I was doing some rough drawings to help me decide upon what I wanted my character to look like. Once I picked the overall appearance of the character I began to refine my drawings improving the way the character was drawn as well as sorting out any problems I had whilst drawing my character.

Sketchbook Pages

Flat Plans

I did flat plans so I could work out the structure of the story and which section of the story will be on certain pages. It also allowed me to see how I could organise a double page spread with the text and images stretching across two pages.

Plans

Here I have planned the different components of my book so the layout and structure of the front, back and double page spread. I also worked out the complete storyline as well as various patterns and character drawings.

Lynne Chapman

I chose to use Lynne Chapman's work as an artist copy because I had not used pastels very much and wondered if it was a possible form to make my final piece in.
