wc 22/02/16 progress, reflection and ideas

Progress

This week has seen the beginning of me actually making art that will be used in the final dummy version of the book. The schedule had shown the pages 2-7 would be complete by this point, however pages 2-3 are still being worked on so I have fallen behind my latest schedule already.

Reflection

The first initial image has taken far longer than expected although I realise that there is far more in detail, characters and the setting itself than will be in most images. The timing is important but due to this image being used for both sets of end papers and possibly the poster taking my time is more important. The idea I had of combining drawing and painting seems to work and should give me a coherent style that will be seen throughout the book.

Idea

One idea I have to save some time is to not create the same rough images for the two final images. Instead I will work straight into colour, these images may actually vary in style as they are supposed to represent paintings in a gallery so they should perhaps look as if done by different artists. this is one way of saving time as I already realise that my method of working may be rather time consuming.
