WORKSHOP 6: terrors of the night

I thought this workshop was realy good, i enjoyed it, it was good fun and involved a lot of drawing (whuch i like). My 'terrors' came out well, they fit when cut up into different creatures, which is a relief. I would like to look into the packaging side of things and how i would reproduce them.

I decided to have a look at 'misfits' games (baisically the mix and match card games) to see what styles and packaging came up..


I love the style of these misfits cards, its almost an old victorian style which was where they originated from. The image below is from a victorian mix and match game. I like how the style from this era has been continued into the modern day games.
















LOOKING AT PACKAGING...


The mix and match game is now widely used to teach children about everyday things like getting dressed, numbers etc..

The pack to the left is produced like a pack of cards which is quite a good idea, easy to transport and easily used.

The characters are child friendly and stylised.














DIFFERENT STYLES....



Theres this typical childrens information book feel, with block bright colours, and simple faces. All the characters are the same and very simplified.







Or the more contemperary feel like this one which i quite like as its more modern and fitting to todays illustrational favourites.
