About this gig
Hi! I'm Melcsi, a freelance illustrator specializing in bookish illustration, fantastical design, and expressive typography. I create book cover art, character art, and chapter headers using bold colors, playful lettering, and subtle folklore, magic, and mystical motifs.
I've been a lifelong reader, and working on fantasy book covers, romantasy/romance themed visuals, character illustrations, and book branding is where I feel most at home. If you're looking for custom illustration or bookish typographic design rooted in storytelling, Id love to hear about your project!
I do have a FAQ set up with further infos, but do not hesitate to reach out with questions!

FAQ
About my workflow
Before moving on to anything final or polished, I always provide a rough pencil sketch for you to review. For character art, this typically means one draft. Once the sketch has been discussed and agreed on, I move forward with the polished, full-color artwork.
Revisions
I always include a sketch revision, and 2 revisions on the polished files. Further revision opportunities can be purchased at a 15 USD/occasion rate.
Deadlines
Turnaround times vary depending on the complexity and number of images, but as a general reference, a character illustration is typically completed within 7 days from the start of the project.
What kind of file types do you deliver?
By default, I deliver high resolution png, jpg and press-ready pdf files. I don’t provide editable working files. If you need foil layers or special effects added for print, feel free to let me know – I’m happy to assist with those during and after the process.
Licensing
My pricing includes a promotional license that allows you to use the illustration for promotional purposes across both print and digital platforms. However, certain uses, such as producing merchandise for sale, requires to purchase the Commercial license.
Working hours
I’m usually available on weekdays from 10 am to 3 pm Budapest time (CET). While I make an effort to avoid working on weekends, I do my best to respond promptly to urgent messages.
Do you incorporate AI technologies into your workflow?
No, I exclusively produce hand-drawn illustrations.
