finished legend

added infographic

legend of sleepy 2

i chose a different typeface and i think i like it more. better texture. i need to decide how to break it up (i'm not sure if a drop cap will do it anymore...hm) and i need a cover.. still. i'm just becoming VERY indecisive. 

legend of sleepy hollow

So i drew a couple illustrations for my drop caps. and of course being the smart person i am i left them in the scanner (ha ha...) well at least i have the scans!! i need to make a few more letters–obviously

 page one (left)

page 2 (right)

the most interesting part of this story is the fact that it's all text. no chapters or anything. so i'm just making every line a drop cap. i know that the bottom half isn't aligned. i fixed it lol oops

setting type

so this is from the Gutenberg bible and it inspired me to want to illustrate letters.

i think i'm going to make my book about the Legend of Sleepy Hollow and i want it to have a dark old feel. i'm not sure how yet but just sharing of what inspired me today

updating

so i'm still working on my info graphic and looking up #'s and data but here's my original

and my final box idea/instructions. all i need to do is buy new toothbrushes

and i want to make another book so i'm going to start setting type!

product idea
