An open call from the International Bomber Command Centre for character designs amongst our level three students has resulted in Beck Curran’s superb designs being selected. Beck completed the paid commission to design a character called ‘Gus the Gremlin’ to appear in an interactive app for the IBCC. Gus will also appear in promotional materials.
Beck has constantly strived to utilise and apply her love of comicbook illustration in new areas such as editorial illustration and, here, in promotional work. This kind of agility in applying a core love of an illustration style to different areas is what we at Lincoln Illustration BA (Hons) seek to embed in our students so they can pursue their dream illustration jobs and develop their illustration careers at the same time.
When asked, Jess, the commissioner remarked, ‘I thoroughly enjoyed working with Beck and am delighted with her work’. Well done Beck!
