Being unhappy with the direction and consistency of this illustration compared to the others, I decided to start from scratch

|
Neverland Jigsaw
- Creating the interior illustration of a map of Neverland, and converting it into a wood-cut jigsaw, to be sold as part of the kickstarter campaign.
Using chapter header design as a base, I create a more detailed map illustration
|
|
|
|
Bringing the design into illustrator, I then add details like the text and border
