After looking at DAGGERS FOR TEETH and back at MARK BREED's Zine I looked at he also runs HOODBATS where as well as ZINES he sells patches and T SHIRTS so I decided that designing patches and stickers to go with my book launch as a definite way forward.
I've stick with the whole black and orange vibe, which is quite halloweeny too which is cool, I mean that's not too far off is it?
If I was to go into development the two seperate ones I've chosen would be designs I developed further and then got printed and made. I think they reflect the Zine well and my practice as a whole. I would like to initially get 4 patches made from these options but if I was to go through it would be a risk. It's much more money and being a 'new artist' there's a risk I might not be able to move that much stock.

Looking at DAGGERS FOR TEETH helped a lot being that he is someone who is very well versed in designing patches, taking a look at it work was important. The use of negative space really helped me get designs flowing quick. An remembering when getting patches made any white space can be converted to another colour quite easily before production. Also Craig usually uses 2-3 colours which helped with my colour scheme too as in where to add hints of colour that would be the most effective.
