FAQ
1. Is your work created using AI tools like Midjourney?
Absolutely not. With 12 years of professional experience, I believe in the integrity of hand-drawn art. Every illustration is sketched and painted manually from a blank canvas. This ensures your book has a unique "soul" and avoids the copyright risks associated with AI-generated images.
2. How do you ensure my characters look the same on every page?
This is my specialty. Unlike AI, which struggles with "Character Consistency," I create a dedicated character reference sheet for your protagonist. By manually drawing the character from different angles and with various expressions, I guarantee they remain recognizable and consistent.
3. Will my book be ready for Amazon KDP or IngramSpark?
Yes. I don't just provide "images"; I provide print-ready assets. I have over a decade of experience with industry-standard technical requirements, including bleed, margins, and gutter settings. Your final files will be high-resolution (300 DPI) and formatted specifically for your chosen platform.
4. Can I get the source files for my illustrations?
Yes, I provide organized, layered source files (PSD/Procreate) as part of my professional service. These files serve as a "digital receipt" and proof of manual craftsmanship. Having layered files is vital if you ever want to animate your characters or make minor text edits in the future.
5. What is your process for a full children’s book project?
I follow a structured, professional workflow: 1. Sketch Phase: I provide rough drafts for your approval. 2. Line Art: We finalize the composition and details. 3. Coloring: I apply the final textures and lighting. This milestone-based approach ensures you are 100% happy with the result!
6. Who owns the copyrights to the illustrations?
Full Copyright Transfer is available for a 20% fee of the total project price. This is recommended for authors planning to sell on Amazon, IngramSpark, or for commercial merchandising.
