I haven't really posted much this project (partly down to me and partly because I had limited internet for a while). Anyway my project is starting by looking at subcultures throughout the ages in Britain and how those cultures are routed in class. Here is a Mod based piece I hand drew and then edited on Photoshop and Microsoft Picture editor to put the 'mod symbol' over. Mod's were both middle and working class and there are arguments for them originating from either class. Of course a lot of the working class mods went on to become Skinheads, this was partly due to factory work requiring short hair and long hair being unsuitable for fights. Middle class mods could grow their hair and became known as Suede heads.
