As the IOT project comes to a close, I have been producing my final illustrations to put on the selected pages of the 'Gardening on a Shoestring' book.
My selected pages are; Page 25 'The Water-Bottle Watering System', Page 30 'Pots with Panache', Pages 92-93 '10 Pricey-in-the-store Crops' and Page 100 'One Pot, 10 Crops'.
I have developed my drawing style for these selected pages and from this I have produced my drawings which will be coloured in watercolour. I will also use Photoshop to move the illustrations and place them appropriately within my layout.

I will be using Photoshop to format my scans to make them look like blank pages ready for imagery. The scans I took from my 'Gardening on a Shoestring' book will be 'cleaned up' on photoshop using a method that I was shown by Vincent, which involves removing the tint from the scanned pages, removing the photos and making the black text bolder.
This example uses a page which I will not be creating illustrations for, but demonstrates the process of cleaning up the scanned image to make a blank template for imagery.
