That's not English!

18/01/2014

In my next image I want to use a bit of text but not in English. This will hopefully give the image a more exotic flavour. I'll try something simple for my first attempt. Illustrators (in my case) aren't as well known for their use of text!




Start off with the black and white version of the character first.


Add the colour.


Work in to the image with photoshop. I think it actually has a more graphic feel to it. Not sure if it fits in to the genre I'm trying to concentrate on. The text seems to work well and I like the fact it's in Portuguese. Hopefully it shows the futility of reading through one of the infinite number of books in the Library of Babel! 

May add a bit more into it, to make it fit in with the rest of the images……or I'll wait to see what my peers and the tutors say.
