Summer Project - Your Country's Homeless Needs You


Prince William Take Two... This resembles him slightly more than the previous. In fact, the previous was pretty horrific looking back now :S The edited version is cheese-tastic, however war time posters were indeed just that - cheesy and patriotic. Maybe the text should be in red or blue? Unsure if my own font works, or if I should just opt for a ready made font from the net. I'm much happier with the phrase this time round, it helps viewers to recollect the famous Lord Kitchener poster.

Summer Project - The Dispossessed Need You

This is a play on the old war poster "Your Country Needs You". I have replaced the Field Marshall Lord Kitchener with the image of Prince William - this recollects the numerous newspaper articles in which Prince William calls for arms in order to help the situation of poverty in London.

Problems: Prince William looks bloody awful and holds no resemblance to the actual person. I might consider re-drawing it and opting for a softer medium such as pencil and watercolours.

Secondly, I'm unsure about the text. I was thinking instead maybe: "Your Country's Homeless Need You"?

Not going with the board game idea anymore due to lack of time.

Summer Project - We Are Not Born Homeless


Unsure if this even remotely resembles a womb, but hey it's development - can't complain. Text font is a bit dodge - it's too harsh, will have to work on the text more. The picture is a copy of a previous hobo drawing, painted on with watercolours, then scanned in and edited. Undecided whether I like it or not...

In terms of the reverse Monopoly idea, this is flailing. I'm worried I don't have enough time to finish that concept. Lots of idea balls floating in the air...
