OLIVER JEFFERS PAGE FACSIMILE (COPY) CHALLENGE

In order to test how well your skills have developed using Adobe Photoshop you have been set a practical challenge. You must create a facsimile, or copy of the above page from Oliver Jeffers childrens book, The Incredible Book-Eating Boy

In order to successfully complete the challenge you will need to use all of the tools and techniques you have been introduced to over the last six weeks as well as improvising your own solutions to a few problems you haven't encountered before

To help you get started, you have been provided with a number of assets (files) to speed things up, including backgrounds & clip art, scanned artwork from the book and oliver jeffers own preliminary sketches. Each of these will need to be edited in various ways to best replicate the original page.

You can download the files individually from the gallery above or as a zip file from this link: http://www.filedropper.com/jeffers

You should keep a note in your exercise book of how you go about each stage as well as taking screengrabs of your work in progress, as you will be expected to produce an evaluation document detailing your process by Friday
