I thought I would be an idiot if I were to not do anything for the U.S Election results, as it would be trending worldwide. But what Matt was saying about how I haven't really shown my work kept going round in circles in my head but still wasn't doing that much about it apart from stickers. So I decided to make two separate posters (obvs because I don't know who's going to win) and on the day of the results go around the art college as well as leeds uni and leeds beckett and put up the posters. It would be the perfect promotion, everyone will be talking about it and (hopefully) will be seen by most!
After having the crit with Matt it made me realise how important making roughs are for my work, because usually i'd just draw the first thing that comes to my head, which doesn't necessarily communicate very well. It also helps for proportion of the characters and the overall composition of the illustration.

Instead of doing an illustration of Hillary wining, I did it of Trump losing instead. This is because if she does win then people would be happy that Trump lost, not because Hillary is president because she's still pretty corrupt. I'm happy with what I have produced! Because I also listened to Matt's advice and did loads of roughs before I started to sketch out my final design which I feel made them stronger. I don't think they're necessarily perfect proportion wise, but far better than some of my previous illustrations. I also love the primary colours, linking to the colours of the candidates and also making the two work great as a pair.
