A spoonful of sugar

A couple of years ago I did a poster about sugar in drinks for a friend who is a teacher.

From Hillpark Secondary's Twitter - click for complete tweet.

Unfortunately, a ceiling leak ruined it, so she asked me to make a new one.

What was fascinating, was how much less sugar there is in many of the drinks than there used to be.

I also added a teaspoon beside each, with the approximate number of teaspoons of sugar written on it. Much more meaningful than grammes. Frijj has 10¾ teaspoons!?! (although that is two full glasses).

'A fun way to teach the functional properties of different ingredients in food products.

It is designed to complement the SQA Health & Food Technology National 4/5 course: Food Product Development.

20 comic-style PowerPoint presentations teach the properties of five ingredients: flour, sugar, egg, fat and liquid.'

(I thought I had it all sorted several days ago, and then discovered my files were too big to upload. Which involved a lot of re-jigging - for more or less the same end result.)

No idea why the white paper looks grey!

On the right: Face smaller on head, head smaller, neck longer, waist longer, thighs longer, not falling over! Still not superhero proportions, but at least not completely weird looking!

And here she is inked and coloured:

This would be so much easier if I actually knew the muscles and didn't need reference for absolutely everything.
