Week Three Minus One!?

Just decided I'd update this blog, and fill in how I'm getting on with the Illustration project...
I spent last week just finding my way around Adobe again, and before I knew it time was up, and I didn't have a chance to update here!! I've been coming up with ideas for layout and colours, and this week I'm focusing on seperate hand rendered drawings which I'll be combining to make my over-all project finished result.

The colours I've selected are very cool and dark, I've decided blues, greys, silvers and black & white will make a lovely palette. The blue will update all the old fashioned dull colours associated with Gothic architecture, without having to change them. I've decided to add some gold tiny details in text etc., aswell, simply so I can include my little 'thing' - CONTRAST

As for my rate of learning - its still oh-so S - L - O - W, but I'm alot more eager now. The more I do for this project; sketch wise, research wise, effort wise, the more I see it coming together and giving me my Fairytale ending in Illustration! :)

Thats all for now folks!! See full size image
