Designs that can be applied to products

 Starting to think about more refined ideas now I have come up with a couple of ideas. These ideas could be applied to a lot of different products so I still have that flexibility with them.

This design was created with a print in mind. I don't want to have all the same products as everyone else but because my work is so different to other peoples I feel like a print will still sell. I really like this design because it has a very epic feeling to it. its got the sci-fi its got the crabs and its got just a general monster feeling to it that I think a lot of people will be interested in.
I have recently learnt how to do Riso prints for the first time and was very interested in doing one for this project as a way of making my print stand out from just the usual stuff. I like this design but I do worry its going to be too simple and wont take full advantage of the Riso process and its possibilities.

Learning to Laser engrave

Image
 I attended a workshop to learn how to laser engrave as this is a process I have never done before. It was really really cool and is probably my new favourite bit of kit at the university. I produced this book end in the workshop.  The team running the session provided a template for the base and then we selected images and learn how to use a cut line and an engraving line.  Please note the images engraved on this are taken from the internet. There was not time for me to use my own designs and so the part I am responsible for is just the composition of the images and the idea of having them that way.  This was a really insightful and fun and taught me a lot. I am very keen to use the laser cutters for at least one product at the fair.

Coasters final outcome

 The final outcome of my coasters! I think these turned out really well, I made 12 of them in total 3 of each design. The level of detail that I was concerned about seems to not be a problem but only just , I think any more detail would be too much and ideally these designs  would work best on larger surfaces.

Bookmark final outcome

 My bookmarks turned out pretty well. They are quite basic and just a rectangle but I think they are a nice little addition. I will sell them for a very affordable cost.  If I had more time I would have made them a custom shape but I think for the intended purpose this is simple and sleek.
