KDP Children's Book Illustrator | Character Design & Print-Ready Files
Children's Book Illustrator & Character Designer — Print-Ready KDP, IngramSpark & Lulu Files I deliver fully print-ready children's book illustration: 300 DPI, CMYK, 0.125" bleed margins, exact character geometry held across all 32 pages, and fully nested, layered master files (PSD / Procreate / AI) that any printer or formatter can open. I am a 100% human illustrator — no generative AI touches my client work, ever. Every project includes time-lapse process videos as proof of hand-drawn origin, plus full commercial IP transfer on final payment, so your publishing rights are clean and defensible. WHY AUTHORS & BRANDS HIRE ME → AI & copyright risk, solved. Hand-drawn from sketch to final. You receive the native layered source files, a signed IP transfer, and process videos — no AI-training-data exposure, no takedown surprises. → Character consistency, guaranteed. From 16-spread picture books to mascot series, your protagonist keeps exact geometry, palette, and costume across poses, outfits, and lighting — verified against an approved model sheet before I paint page one. → No formatting nightmares. One partner for art + production: cover and interior sized to your trim, spine width calculated from final page count, barcode-safe back cover, KDP/IngramSpark upload-checked. → No hiring anxiety. Free sketch approval: you approve roughs before I paint. Milestone-based delivery, daily updates, two structured revision rounds baked into every quote.
