Below is screenshots of the PDF document that I submitted for C2:

Below is an image of the character stickers that I have cut out from the single sheet of sticker paper.

I have also mocked up a pack for these stickers through Photoshop. I am proud of these stickers and I feel that the hard work has paid off.

I have put together an Adobe Illustrator document with my character stickers laid out with thin outlines ready for print.

When the document is printed, it will be sent through to the printer without the layer of the outlines to print the characters onto a sticker paper. Once this is done, the document will be sent to the vinyl cutting printer with the outlines only and the sticker sheet of characters will be fed through the machine to have the outlines cut - this will create the peel-away stickers.

Below is the result of the printing, I have a roll of character stickers which I will need to cut separately and then I will have the individual stickers for the submission.

To tie the character illustrations together as a project, I've decided that I will need to give them names to bring the characters to life. i haven't decided on all of their names yet but I have decided that the cat will be called 'Crumples' and the rest of the characters will fall under the bracket of 'The Creepz' which forms the project name 'Crumples + the Creepz'.

Below is the typography plans I have put together for the project name, I want the 'logo' of the project to be simplistic but also have a fun element to it to match the cartoon style of the characters.

I have also included the colour palette for this project which combines the character colours.

My preferred typeface for this project is 'Cartoon Marker' as it is light and playful but also is bold and stands out against the background which will be required depending on whether I use a dark or bright coloured background for the sticker mock-up packaging.

Below, I have played with the placement of the typeface for the 'Crumples + The Creepz' logo.

Below are my final character illustrations:

I am really happy with these illustrations, I am proud of how far my illustrative ability has come along.

I have taken the previous outlines from my digital sketches and added faces and skin textures to the cat and dog. i have given them a blank and lifeless expression to try and capture a morbid feel to these illustrations.

Following on from the cat and the dog, I have created cleaner outlines for the snake, rabbit, bat and ermine characters.

Following on from the rough and digital sketches, I have refined the shapes and faces of the animals that I want to include as characters in the project. I have chosen to use a cat, dog, rabbit, snake, ermine and a bat as the characters.

Below are the developed digital sketches:
