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. WHAT I DELIVER • Children's picture books — full 32-page illustration, layout & KDP formatting • Book covers — romantasy, fantasy & children's fiction; full print wraps + eBook • Character & mascot design — model sheets, turnarounds, expression sheets • Activity & coloring books — color-by-number, worksheets, educational series PROOF, NOT PROMISES BFA (Indian College of Arts & Draftsmanship, Kolkata) · Etsy shop owner @TheBlackMoonGirls since 2021 · 250+ projects across Upwork, Fiverr & Etsy · 100% Job Success Score · Adobe Illustrator & Procreate Tell me your trim size, page count, and deadline — I'll reply with a fixed quote, a delivery schedule, and a free sample sketch direction within 24 hours. — Sutapa
