Mum I Want To Pee!
"Hover" or "Click" an image to see my work process.
Step 1
Early sketches of Jasmine are needed to define her character and personality, which will be used in the book.
Step 2
Early sketch and design of mum.
Step 3
A sketch of the Donkey woman, who is a secondary character in the book.
Step 4
Finished sketch of the circus clown.
Step 5
Sketch of mum and daughter in a scene within the book.
Step 6
Overhead sketch of the main fairground scene with circus tents, stands, hot air balloons, a crowd and a big wheel in the distance.
Step 7
All the sketches are complete so I now begin adding colour. Full colour is added to the fairground scene and all other scenes within the book.
Step 8
Jasmine, the main character is in her bedroom, fully coloured in with speech bubbles. The task was to show her overjoyed at hearing the good news of going out to the fairground.
Step 9
Overhead shot with the main character and the donkey - launched up in the air.
Step 10
Mum and daughter near the fairground entrance, which can be seen in the distance. I have made the foreground stand out from the rest by making the colours stronger.
Step 11
The entrance scene to the circus is made up of many elements. Great details were added for authenticity, like the banners, bunting and side booth.
Step 13
A sample of how a scene is created from sketch to colour (adding background details one by one) until myself and author are happy with the final result.
Step14
Final result of the front cover with the image and title for "Mum I Want To Pee".
