Stage 2

For our Stage Two I had to make a children's activity instruction page based on the theme of 'flying' to be published in a magazine. All I could think of for this was paper aeroplanes so I started to look  into origami

 I figured to use these I would adapt them slightly so I wouldn't breach any copyright rules from these tutorials. However, I soon realised that illustrating these into a instructional activity would be very complex and time consuming - not to mention hard for the target audience which is younger children.

 

 

I then had a brainwave, an idea that would be thinking outside the box. I used to play a lot with cut out dolls from children's magazines when I was younger and thought I could still do this but make her a fairy to keep in line with the theme.

Below is the final product, it is a bit out of my comfort zone as I don;t have much experience with cartoons or digital drawing yet, but I am happy with the outcome. It could do with some tweaking, I would work on making the piece more visually attractive for children and clearer instructions.
