ILLUSTRATION FRIDAY: TAPE

 My first Illustration Friday submission: Tape


Concept
I didn't spend long on this brief so I didn't put much thought into the concept. I knew I wanted to avoid drawing a roll of tape - I wanted to do something a bit more out of the box.
I came up with the subject of video tapes and watching VHS movies, but I don't think the idea is well executed. The video tape in the girl's hand is too sketchy, not immediately communicating that it is a video. The television is the most recognisable object and I'm relying on this to communicate the rest of the image.

Tone of Voice
Trying to fit in with the humorous, comical illustrations I've seen working so well online like Gemma Correll and Sophie Corrigan.

Roughing/final version 
prefer the orignal sketches! This finished one lacks the quick
Digital

Colour
completely random choice. Needs more planning and testing.

The more I look at it the more I dislike it, but it's submitted now so I can forget about it.
