Initial Research
This details the inspiration and reserach I pulled from to create my final concept. The mind map in the next image helped me find the inspiration.
Mind Map & Sketches
This was a creative exerscise where I tried to come up with as many ideas as possible using thumbmails and mind map activity.
Refined Sketch
From all of the quick thumbnails I took a few that I liked and be can to re-sketch them. This is the one idea that I liked better than the rest.
Digitizing
Taking the concept to the computer and refining the concept as I move along.
Refinements
Working out the shape of the head a little better and testing colors a bit more.
Adding Type
Introducing type and testing the use of scalops under the wings in the top left.
