A couple of months ago I did a poster for a client who owns a restaurant. He wanted a poster that was the size of a door that included pretty much his entire family. So I did some preliminary sketches of each person to get the caricatures right. Then I did a sketch putting them all together--whew! His restaurant is a sort of retro Jetson theme, so everything was spaceships and futuristic Jetson buildings on platforms.
In any case, once the sketches were all approved I did the final in Xara using several layers for the various parts of the poster so I could move things around and get the composition the way he wanted it. I think it came out pretty good.
