Refining Remaining Posters and Order


    With only two posters left, i decided to line up my current posters to see what was missing or needed a bridge between the posters. For instance a different poster needs to be between Gazelles and Laracs to break up the green colours shared between them. Furthermore, i felt a different shape needed to be between Cadey and Weeping Soul as they are both circular shaped. I have repeated the same shapes to show they are connected posters, i recognised that another circle shape and triangle shape needed to be used again. Originally in my older plans, Creature was going to have a triangle shape, however that would end up next to Gazzelle to break up those two colours. Furthermore, Salem was originally gonna use a circle which would end up next to Weeping Soul. So i decided that i should swap these twp shapes around to balance it all out. Of course i drew sketches first to see if i felt the shapes worked because if not i could try to rearrange the entire order.
   Colour swatches and the tissue i used to remove paint or dry my brush before using for Luna Laracs poster. I have been using this to help minimise the water on my brush so i wouldnt water down the gouache more than i wanted or accidentally remove a layer of paint due to brush having too much water on.

   I wrote down my notes here about Creature and Dr Salems poster plans after looking at all the current posters together. After i decided to place Creature between Gazelle and Luna i then began to see what colour was missing from the posters that would contrast/break up the green colours. I decided on a pink colour for Creature, originally i did feel a pastel pink for this posters background but decided a brighter solid pink would be needed to break up the greens and stand out when printed out. For Salems poster on the darker side i decided on a blood red/brown for the background so the black gloves will stand out.
     Sketches i made in my books to decided if the circle shaped suited Creature better with the pros and cons written on the side. I decided that the circle worked effectively well with Creatures design as i could create a trail from the shape with the bowls below, additionally matching the circle colour to the bowls colour. I didnt feel the need to draw out the triangles with the hands coming out for Salems poster as i felt it was a simple design that would obviously worked as it is a simpler poster with no border needed as the darker posters lose details.
