Collection 100 - Developing the illustrations

Rather than designing different compositions for 100 different designs, I thought it would be more practical to design them as I go along, using aspects from other rules and combining them with others. I wanted to add a comedic twist to the illustrations which hopefully is evident in some designs.

I first looked at different compositions:

As you can see, for rule #2, I originally used the French flag as the background to the illustration without any other imagery. Aforementioned, however, I wanted to stick to a consistent colour scheme so the designs were uni, therefore I decided to alter this for the final design. I found it hard, however, to create realistic figures throughout all of my designs without primary source photographs as reference therefore I thought it was most effective to use existing stock imagery, like the following for example (Rule #4)

Just a few of the reference images I used.
