Illustration development


Initial illustrations



I wanted to do a rip-off of the cartoon Hot Stuff the Devil, as it plays with the idea of juxtaposing playfulness with the association of evil and moustaches (the Devil). I did so by tracing the cartoon and adding facial hair and a razor. I like this illustration, but it was suggested in my crit that I could make it more hand drawn and messier in order to communicate a playfulness further. 

Hand-drawn developments 


I really liked these drawings, as I thought they could work well as stickers in order to make the design interactive. I also drew some flame moustaches and some razor illustrations to broaden my theme. However, my feedback was that these still look too clean, so I decided to re draw them in order to make them look 'messier', with a thinner line weight.

Sticker concept and further developments 


Here you can see that the line weight is smaller and the overall illustrations are slightly messier. I also added a border in preparation for the stickers; I am concerned that the stickers are too close together however, so it might need tweaking.
