Project 1: Illustrative Initials

For my illustrative initials, I decided to take the key concept further and use bone characteristics for the "skeleton key".


After some sketches, I really liked where I was going with it, but I felt like something was off about the positioning of the initials. After a group discussion, we realised that the "B" and "F" were being read in two different directions, which throws the viewer off.So, I decided to rework it.



I ended up modeling the "key" after an arm bone. Even though the "B" is read backwards, all of the letters are read in a swooping up and down fashion, rather than the previous up and side way. 

I've now traced the outline onto Illustrator and will be working with it digitally.
