I enjoyed making the leaflet/postcards in this way as it is something I have never tried before, I really liked the typography I used such as on the first page where the figure flies it says 'WOOSH' which is exaggerated and bended upwards to mimic the movement of flying up into the sky, That I feel fills out the image and makes it feel more like the comic book style which I was looking for. Using Cristiano Siqueira's style to give the effect of smoke and special powers on the character was good however I should have spent more time on it as it could look much better. Also concerning the figure I could have taken photographs of people and used them instead of drawing them, I used a photograph of myself for the second page which I darkened almost entirely to black and it looked good, on the other hand the last page the character looks a bit obvious that its a drawing and sticks out from the rest of the image however the rest looks good, including the of set panels of him flying on page 1 and him being angry on the last page.
If I was to improve on it I would do more pages and incorporate images of myself or others that I have photographed and more variety in locations.
In all I am pleased with the background images(the surreal landscapes which is sort of a play on the new exhibition which is called landscapes and mine are featured in the background of all pages which helps relate it.)
