EMP - I have made a test story book

I have made a test story book, this is an initial idea that needs a lot of work

I want to see if I can actually make a book to accompany all of the rest of the project ideas. As I think it would be a lovely extra feature that I could involve to show off some of my illustration skills. This short story will be nothing serious, but a humours sketch of a character that features through out the book.

I have based my character on a goose due to a lot of my previous research and photographs being based on geese. I will be changing my decision on birds shortly, but for now I want to focus my attention this research.

I have made my goose a old fashioned character as it may not make sense or attract a younger audience. I have used simple speech to tell my story, which i really like an may keep to! I wanted to keep the pallet very simple. As I must admit at the time I was looking at my Snoopy books which had a contributing factor to my simple colour choice.

Here are the designs I have put together on Illustrator. I wanted to make my designs into a spread first, so I could visualise it all on one screen before I went on to Indesign.
