Whilst I initially started out using a dip pen I ended up using a digital brush pen by Kyle Webster that created crisp line work with great variance in weighting. Additionally I feel that my understand of colour has improved with a smaller colour palette. These slightly muted colours allow an extra vibrancy to my work whilst not making the pieces look garish.
However the brief wasn't a complete success for me, I don't think I delved deep enough into texture investigation. Pieces such as the Mad Max poster and Deadpool show the beginnings of halftone understanding but this really wasn't capitalised upon.
Overall, I am happy with the work produced through this brief, and now have several pieces that, with a bit of tweaking, could work a posters for events such as Thought Bubble and Birmingham ICE.
