This was one of my first idea's i decided to quickly do a test print to make sure it would work as i havent done lino in a very long time. The idea i had was to use the lino print method to give the book a very fun and play full feeling to it to go along with my theme of 3 of a kind. The printing method would also give the book some form of authenticity.
This is a small A5 piece of lino which i would test a double page spread of my book on to make sure the text and the image worked in the style i was going for.
Tracing onto the lino with pen to try and be slightly more accurate.
I had already messed up the "three" on the top by cutting out the outside of the letters instead of the inside. This was annoying but it was only a test piece. The cutting out was slightly less accurate then i hoped but still worked well.
I realised after printing that the Text would invert... I was also not happy with the texture of the print. I could of fixed this by scanning in the image and inverting the text on photoshop or just printing out a invert copy and tracing it on, but i decided against this as i could take too much time.
These are some of the design sheets i produced while trying to work out some of the different layout and what to actaully put inside of my book.
