STEVEN NOBLE: TIMOROUS BEASTIE

January 19, 2015

Steven Noble was commissioned to illustrate a small mouse creature for Douglas Laing’s new malt Scotch whisky brand label, “Timorous Beastie.” The final artwork was created in a scratchboard woodcut style after approved preliminary sketches were submitted.

Thermography printing was used to give an enameled look to the bottle for the product launch. Clever rotary screening and multiple depths of black on a vivid white material give the mouse a life like appearance.

The label was finished off with a mix of gloss and matt varnishes to lend extra dimension. The extravagant cutter shape is added for stand out against dark bottle and great shelf appearance.
