Henry VIII

This is my emulation of Henry VIII, I have done it in the style I have picked for the exam: using adobe illustrator. I drew the drawing out, scanned it in and then traced it with the pen tool.

Brief

What am I going to do?

Brief

The theme for the exam is PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE.
I have decide to design my own children's magazine pull out based upon the OKIDO magazines; I have picked the theme of past. I haven't made a decision yet, but will be basing it on either Henry VIII or cavemen
