Tonight.
Neptune's Daughters will parade through downtown Mobile, Alabama with a theme of
"Splashback to the 80s", featuring 14 floats designed by ME and built by
Craig Stephens and
Carnival Artists.
We only designed 8 new floats this year, as the organization has a few 'permanent' floats- including their 'title' float-- and chose to re-roll a few, as well.
Here, you can see the finished drawings, followed by the rough design sketches used for approval:

In the above drawing, "CLUE" was one of the original suggestions, but later discarded, hence 'Colonel Mustard on the game board with clues and weapons'.....

The design below was exceptionally difficult without resorting to a modernistic "Mondrian-style" background...
