Scribble
Send the brief, references and a deadline. You get a short call or a written reply, then rough thumbnails in pencil: three or four layouts, each on one page.
You choose one, or mix two. Nothing is inked until the layout is agreed.
Process
Four steps for every commission, with a check-in at each one. You see and approve each stage before the next one starts.
Send the brief, references and a deadline. You get a short call or a written reply, then rough thumbnails in pencil: three or four layouts, each on one page.
You choose one, or mix two. Nothing is inked until the layout is agreed.
Line art goes down in fineliner on heavy paper and is scanned at 600 dpi. Notes come back on the scan, not in a long email.
The second round fixes lines, faces and anything the layout got wrong.
Flat sun-yellow and blue are blocked in by hand, then tidied in layers so every colour can be changed on its own.
You see a colour proof. Colour changes at this stage get one round, so they arrive together.
Final files as layered PNG, a print PDF with bleed and web sizes. For a print run, you approve a press proof before the run starts.
Each file comes with a short note on what it is for, so nothing gets printed at the wrong size.
Send a brief and a deadline. You will hear back within two working days.
