Characters for Oxford University Press

I got the chance to work with another amazing client from OUP on some character designs for a potential project, below you can see my first initial concept. Brain characters? 

I then moved forward and wanted to offer a larger range of characters. Neon characters in bound! 

These guys turned out to be some of my favorite characters to date! This was a great exercise for me because I have not really explored simple characters in this way before, was super fun and they were well received by my client at OUP.

Okay so I got the chance to create some test cards for Woodmansterne, I got the chance to meet up with a wonderful gentlemen named Lee to whom I complimented on a wondrous pineapple shirt. 

Any how, Lee was interested in my characters from my children's book and wanted to see how that style would transfer to greetings cards. 

I came out with a few initial ideas for Christmas themed cards, have a gander! 

This was my first try, I was really chuffed with the robin and I think that he looked fairly commercial which was a step in the right direction! 

I then had a pop at this neon Santa which I may have preferred! I sent both across and unfortunately neither took the company's fancy so they were not used in the end. Great opportunity though!
