FAQ
Can you maintain character consistency?
Absolutely! Keeping characters consistent is my thing. They'll stay true to themselves as we journey through your story.
When do you use Photoshop?
I use Photoshop for that extra touch of magic. When your art needs that special spark, or Edits that are unable to be done by mid journey, I'll sprinkle some Photoshop wizardry to make it pop.
Is this only for children's books?
I'm open to other projects too. Just reach out, and we can tailor the art to your vision.
Can you match a specific illustration style?
Yes. Share 2–3 reference images and I'll match the style, line weight, colour palette, and character proportions closely. I work in whimsical, 2d, 3d disney comic, flat, semi-realistic, and watercolour-inspired styles.
What files will I receive?
High-resolution PNG (300 DPI), print-ready PDF sized to your trim, and layered PSD files (Premium package). All sized to KDP specifications.
I've never self-published before. Can you help?
Absolutely. I'll walk you through page count, trim size, bleed requirements, and KDP upload. Most first-time clients say this guidance alone was worth the order.
