London jigsaw

Overview

Commission to produce a fresh new London design for jigsaw manufacturer Ravensburger. 500 piece puzzle.

Process

The main challenge of illustrating for a jigsaw was that the audience will inevitably be so focussed on each line, so all of the scanned artwork needed to be clean, with high contrast. The layout needed to provide an even and wide variety of colours and shapes.

The colours were requested to be highly saturated, and the client asked for a list of landmarks to aid with puzzling.
