The next step of the project was to make a model of a scene from our books - my group made the tent 'where the magic happens'. I really enjoyed all the textures and patterns from the different fabrics and took those elements into my drawings.
Inspired by the model, I decided to try making a paper cutout showing all the different layers of fabric. I love the way it looks with light shining through! I considered making images in this way for my final illustrations, though it would be ambitious (and messy, got paper everywhere making this!) to make five pieces in this way.
Stepping away from scenes, I then focused on character development. I went back to one of my drawings from the summer project and added colour digitally to see how it would look - I am happy with the outcome but still unsure of the colouring style.
The people I drew for the grandmother were all quite different in looks, so I did some drawing combining them all into one character, and also made sketches of Erendira in character.
I also played around with different compositions for the final illustrations then narrowed them down to five thumbnails - all ready to start!
