Portfolio: Birmingham City Council: Tolkien Trail

To coincide with the launch of the Lord of the Rings Trilogy, Birmingham City Council relaunched their heritage Tolkien Trail. We were tasked with updating the trail brochure with custom illustration and a new type style. Every aspect of the leaflet's colour imagery was painted by hand using acrylics and air brush to give a historic feel, complimenting the orinal story and illustrations
