Before I came up with a look to be reviewed by my tutors I made a catalog of what I call "thumbnails" a term for short rough sketches made to communicate ideas to work on. I did this because I wanted to avoid making the mistake of doing an illustration with a hefty amount of effort and work only to slap on text that didn't gel well with the illustration. So as you can see both the text and images are made togeather so to fit eachother. Elements such as texture and gradation are relegated to be worked in at a later time since I draw and paint very much like sculpture at times.
Each Thumbnail was voted on by those closest to me, then I uploaded the chosen few to facebook so to gather more opinions and feedback, The final thumbnail (or rough) was a response to people from facebook and made by merging the best traits of what people seemed to favour.
