Finished Folded format

For the lift the flaps and pullouts, I wanted the fossils to be bright colours so I chose pink, green and blue acrylic to paint a block colour. Then, I outline the paint with with black and white POSCA pen so that they would stand out just as much as the main ichthyosaur fossil.  I also left some room where I could add information on the flaps, however, In the pull out designs it was hard to find a big enough area where I could add type. If I was to do this again, I would make the folded format wider this is because as the ichthyosaur got bigger there was less room for the fossil prints to go. So, I had to make some of the pullouts thinner. 

Overall, this folded format is definitely a high quality design for a children's book and with added information could be something children would find themselves enjoying learning facts. Children could even use it as a poster on their wall, which also could make it easier to interact with.
