An illustration project I did in early 2014. The challenge was to come up with an illustration based on an idiom. My initial idea was to draw from the idiom "over the top," but I soon developed an idea combining three idioms altogether! It was also my personal challenge to incorporate typography into the composition, as I have imagined it to be poster material. Special thanks to instructor Ray Domzalski for the guidance throughout the project. The following are some of the design processes involved with this piece:
The crazy thumbnailing process, with a brief explanation of the idea.
Exploration sketches.
Rough pencil sketch.
Final digital line drawing.
Some exploration with the lighting and type.
Final image with typeface.
Final image without type.
