Ok so im trying to broaden my editorial illustration portfolio, as thats where my work is coming from currently, and considering my "creative imagination" is thus far solely homing in on Moon Fish, I really cant think of any ideas to increase the portfolio.

what I've found with these pieces of work, they dont have much of a background, but are quite design based.

heres some examples of editorial illustration i already have in my portfolio:

the holy diver image: [link]

the guy with the tie, red/black background, grabby hands: [link]

and the hand with the tablet pen: [link]

the definition of "editorial illustration", that i have found is:

DEFINITION
Illustrations created for books or for the purpose of accompanying articles.
INCLUDED
The following list includes examples of illustrations. Other illustrations may also be eligible.

* Children’s book illustrations
* Comic book illustrations
* Cookbook illustrations
* Encyclopaedia illustrations
* Novel illustrations
* Illustrations in a magazine
* Illustrations in a newspaper
* Illustration in other periodicals
* Illustrations for articles on websites

so its quite a wide variety, just generally its a standalone image, like a cover, something to accompany something else.

im really having difficulty thinking up some ideas :< so i was hoping you sexy folk could help me out.

the first two ive kind of covered, but if anyone gives a good idea regarding comics and children's illustration its always a help
