old matchbox

I found some images a few days ago
what a nostalgic matchbox
these are the old style matchbox that I used when I was little
the bottom one come form guangzhou city which is my hometown
when I see it, I decide to make a new box for it
cause next year 2013 is the snake year for the Chinese new year
that will be very interesting because this is hometown's stuff

super cute matchbox


"The Japanese are famous for their super-cute product designs. 
  These matches are incredibly sweet, 
  with smiley animal faces printed onto the match heads themselves."

packaging idea

I'm think about the matchbox

or instant noodle box (like Nissin one)  

 But I think i'd prefer doing the matchbox

final book cover product


we got the critique last thursday
I really found that the cover looks like a children's book
I still remember that book is a fiction
I tried to not draw the animals too cartoony
I know I dont know the book very well
And I will chang the font of all the words
I will do my best

book cover's choice

my book cover choice is "Animals in translation"
i have never read tihs book before
at the begining, i just thought the title was interesting
so I picked it as my choice 
but Prof. Taylor  told me that she like this book so much
and the book is not the fiction
it is more serious, science book
i know i was wrong
i drew a dog listened to the music
a  funny and relaxed puppy
after read a little summary
the author talks about several animals
maybe I can put the animals around the  border
