Assembling the concertina itself was easy, and I think I have done a tidy and satisfactory job of it. Obviously hinging separate spreads rather than printing on the roll always leaves slight gaps between the leaves, but I think I have managed to minimise this and it is of little to no detriment to the final piece
Book evaluation
Overall I am really pleased with my finished publication! Much for satisfied than I was expecting to be earlier on in the module. I think it was definitely the right decision to paint all the chairs individually rather than just duplicate the one image, as different painterly tones bring slight sophistication to what is otherwise quite a minimal and playful design. Originally I was worried that the mass of negative space would leave the whole thing looking a little bit 'floaty' (as this was mentioned in the final peer feedback session), but now I have all the characters and type in place, and have been able to experiment with different sizes and proportions, I think it actually just looks quite clean and slick.
