Book Slipcase Design and Development




Out of all my images and production I feel I really landed short on this design. I really wanted to do an intricate floral design, super colourful and dynamic which included the jungle book characters. Unfortunately, when I was developing the design through sketches I realised I was going to need a lot more time for this type of illustration and I really rather have a decent one that I could do quicker over a messy rushed one that didn't live up to what I had in mind. 

I do think there are aspects to it that are nice. Its a repeat pattern and the way I have drawn it I think captures a bit of the chaoticness of the monkeys in the story. Although the more I look at it, the more I am not sure about the colour scheme. Perhaps a sunflower yellow would have been more fitting. Or a burnt sienna tone.
