Finals - Pages 1 - 4

With these two page spreads I am very happy with how the colours in the background worked out and how the silhouettes of the cross and 'Foxy'. I'm still not 100% happy with the silhouette of the soldier, I feel that I could have done more to it to make it look faded and ghostly, but for now I feel that it is enough. I have chosen to use these colours on the text as I feel it would make it easier for a child to read it and differentiate between the two different characters without it sounding too 'grown-up' by adding parts that describe the characters. I have used the pale orange for 'Foxy' and a pale green for 'Albert' as a clear difference between the speech.

Finals - Covers and Introduction Spread

Of all the pages/spread that I created for my final piece, I feel that the front/back covers were the most successful. I prefer them because the style of colouring worked best here than any where else in my project. I love the way the sky in the background turned out and the shading on 'Foxy' curled up under the cross highlights the images and makes them look more professional.

This is my introduction page, I designed it to have a closer link to the modern day armed forces, as the rest of the book doesn't really mention them as much as I would have liked. The characters I have used to represent the different forces are 'Smith' for the Army, 'Trott' for the Navy and 'Ross' for the Air Force.
