Yep, I am very behind time.

Thought of introducing a character like I did for ego project.

The idea of a space bear going through an adventure.

Made a decision to use vector art as a medium that I am going to experiment with.

Initial layout of the zine did not look that nice.

The layout lack dynamic as pages are always separated at the halfway mark:

Cover page Spread 1 Spread 2 Spread 3 Back cover

generally a very incomplete version of the work.

Had some modifications on the work and applied the one third rule through my spreads. Generally better looking than the previous one.

More importantly, I changed the font to something that will fit the theme of the zine better.

Cover page

Making the bear much bigger to emphasize the character.

Spread one

One third rule to make the entire spread more interesting to look at. The diagonal line makes the entire composition much more dynamic.

Spread 2

Applying one third rule again. This spread is still a work in progress.

Spread 3

Removing the ridiculous range of colors calms the image down. Have to consider the colour scheme for this final spread quite closely.

Back cover

Connecting the back cover to the front cover.

First time experimenting with illustrator. Having some difficulties but hopefully i’ll be able to cope and make it on time.

Quite nervous at the moment but hope everything goes well.

Still have quite a long way to go.

Have a great day.
