I'm adding in a broom then I'm finished I think, what do ya reckon?

Finished

I've submitted this now... so I hope there aren't any glaring mistakes.

What do you think? Bedtime?

Twin Peak Tweaks

Definitely better I think with straight text and blue fog thanks boys. Font ok?

Draft

Imagine the text and the drawing on the same page. The drawing I a sort of final draft before the real one. I decided to stick with the left hand because it fits better. 'Ken Kesey' will be in butter yellow.

card background

Latest effort

It may look a bit too cloudy over the text and things.. let us know what you think.

latest rough/ broken up clock showing clogs and hands escaping? maybe cards sticking out of it?

nurse card in broken clock? what is the point in a clock powered by the nurse?

card game test 2

Still haven't thought of the text and placing it yet.. I'm bit cautious of this image as it might not be recognisable of One flew over the cuckoos nest with just cards... I could try to bring in mental health somehow.. I've got the nurse as the Queen but other then that I think it could look more like a book on betting? not good.

Butter flicking

The close up of the thumbnails are the two for front and back I'm currently leaning towards.

a card game?

I darkened it so you could see the rough - so there is queen nurse in one hand and Mcmurphy joker on the table who's got the guts to gamble?

TESTS

Well I just merged two drawings together and its a very rough test, haven't begun to think of the title and blurb at the back. The idea is a brain filled with fog and branches/wires that lead to the almighty smashed window to symbolise the break of freedom some of them are left with... its pretty gloomy . I'm trying other ideas out too but let me know what you think.

7 Day Challenge

Shall we set a goal I guess the first one is to make roughs, it'd be good to have some ready for start of the week Monday! Glorious Monday. 3 Roughs is a good number and then comment on each others, yes?

The Fog

Abandon mental hospital, kind of like the bitter ending, Acutes leaving left right and centre with the hope of keeping McMurphy as a hero in their mind not a vegetable.

It can't possibly be McMurphy..

'They pushed it into the day room and left it standing against the wall, along next to the vegetables. We stood at the foot of the Gurney, reading the chart, then looked up to the other end at the head dented into the pillow, a swirl of red hair over a face milk-white except for the heavy purple bruises around the eyes. '

"Aaah, what's the old bitch trying' to put over on us anyhow, for crap sakes. That ain't him."

It might be interesting to incorporate old medicine books for the layout of the text/ blurb perhaps.
Help.

Images

I finished le book.

Hurry up and finish!

Such a good feeling finishing the book, and One flew over the Cuckoo's nest has such a triumphant and sad ending. Looking forward to discussing it, so hurry up you lot.
