Progression?

I have been very confused recently as I have so many ideas. I have defiantly decided on the concept, now i am just having difficultly executing it. I have come up with so many different illustrations and a few mediums, that involve alternative approaches.

I had a crit today that completely took the wind out of my sails. The constructive criticism was there it was mostly just show and tell, with no real reaction which in my mind, is never positive. I left the crit with one note, that i must pick an idea and run with it. I am finding it hard as i am really undersided...

I want to do illustration, but then trying out texture and inkblots opened a new door for me. All good for experimentation but i feel that its left me with too many options. I did show my concern in my crit and my overwhelming amount of ideas. 

On this post i have decided to upload all the images i am currently toying with or just plan bad, I want to explain and examen them. This may get it clear in my head on a coarse of action! I may even decide to go with something completely different. 

This idea got a warm reception from one on of my tutors, but not from another. I really like this idea, I think the fact that some people did not spot the rabbit look up from down the hole made it more confusing. I think this is one of my favourite out comes so i want to work with this idea. Making this visual more clear and having a go at making more circle inkblots to overlay with the image.   

This idea i found to be very successful, I would firstly draw the image like this a quickly sketched it on Photoshop. I like the idea of the rabbit being trapped behind the Nurse Ratchets smile. This drawing not only reflects on the orange lips she famously has and her unbreakable smile but the metaphor to. This image would look great once i have drawn  it by had with inks, made it more rough and ready, lots of shadow and disgruntled faces. 

When i drew this image then scanned it in to add shadow, I knew it was a little to much the rabbits face is much to evil. As in the story the rabbit represents the patients and it isn't there place to be seen as the evil character (the nurse is). I hear you say, why don't you draw the wolf like that then... well I still don't think this expression is very fitting and i also think it reminds me of the film 'Chucky' .

I was playing with textures in this image, It was mentioned in the last crit this the background colour was to solid. So i thought i would try out some textures to add an extra dimension to the image. I wanted to create an inkblot shaped image, by trying taking a previous image of a rabbit and reflecting them. I like the way it looks but for it to be more appropriate i think i would have to make the image more inky, at the moment i don't think this is one on of my strongest images.  

I have found my self look at the this image again, I do think this image of the rabbit having a electrodes attached to his temples then spelling the title of the book at the bottom successful. I like the way that the rabbit in biting down on a carrot, this signifies when a patient is having shock treatment they are made to bite down on a piece of wood or plastic. This image has an underlined disturbing tone, when you look harder it you realise what is happening. I think this image could be very successful in attracting readers.
