Peter Rabbit Illustrations

Looking at how the story can be told using the words within the characters in the story and other objects.. this could then me translated onto a puzzle and magnets, that can fit together to make up the word..

[hand drawn images]
This would also look quite interesting as a poster to promote the story.. 
Experimenting with the names of the rabbits to start with, flopsy, mopsy, cotton-tail and peter.. 

I tried using a different typeface for 'cotton-tail', but I found that the rounded shapes were much more difficult to work with.. also, this is a longer word, and has much more white space with the arial rounded typeface, so may be difficult to see the rabbit shape..

Went back to using the square typeface 'kenyan coffee', as this was quite easy to use last time.. the 'L' at the end might be mistaken for a 'D'.. might need a bit more experimentation with how the letters are changed..

Changed so that the ears are down, so the 'P" works better.. keeping consistency, I have added the back ear.. 
Made the ears look like the 'M', which slightly changes it from the 'peter' rabbit.. maybe see how colours change the look of the rabbits.. will all of them be the same.. or differ?
Flopsy, mopsy, Cotton-tail and Peter..


Change the 'L' on cotton tail..

Idea for the front cover.. too much space.. maybe make up the rabbit's body.. using simple shapes..
