The Illustrated Self: Planning and Research

Unfortunately due to financial circumstances I can't afford to get to college this week so have worked from home. I dislike working from home as my neighbours are noisy and there are many more distractions than in the studio. I made a plan for the week but unfortunately it hasn't worked out as such, largely due to sorting out my accommodation next year outside of student accommodation which means an excessive amount of paperwork!

However I have managed to get a bit of research done!

I'm forming the idea to maybe make a small zine which would consist of the Power Rangers fighting off a Hollywood sized threat of some sort. I want it to display some humour which I like my pieces to have as I have shown in earlier pieces such as my Dracula piece from Visual Language. I'm thinking that there should be a joke of some sort about them saving a demolished city - much like in many current action films.
