Steps to your perfect Illustrations
Creating the perfect illustration is a journey we take together. From understanding your story to delivering the final artwork, each step is designed to capture your vision and turn it into something children will love.
Free Consultation
We’ll start with a friendly chat about your story idea and characters, then share a simple form for you to explain your story and scenes. We’ll also talk about the timeline and budget so everything is clear from the start.
Creating the Illustrations
We begin by carefully reading your instructions and creating a sketch for each scene. The sketch is shared with you for approval, and we make any changes you request. Once approved, we move on to coloring and share the final version with you. You can ask for changes at coloring and sketch stage.
Designing the Book Cover
Once your illustrations are ready, we design the front, back, and spine of your children’s book cover in one complete process. The cover is made to look attractive, professional, and a perfect fit for your story. It is fully optimized for all major self-publishing platforms, and you can request unlimited revisions until you are completely satisfied.
Formatting the Book
Once the illustrations and cover are complete, we format your book for eBook and print. We place the text and illustrations in the correct order, with text on the left and artwork on the right. We also add the title, copyright, and dedication pages. If text needs to go on the illustrations, we handle that in Step 1.

Hi, I’m Saqib Mushtaq, founder of Children Book Art. I’ll be the one personally talking with you about your book and guiding you through every step. You can schedule a meeting at a time that works best for you.

Frequently Asked Questions
Find simple and clear answers to the most frequently asked questions about our illustration process, including sketches, revisions, book covers, formatting, and project timelines.
We begin by talking with you to understand your ideas clearly. You can share your thoughts or written descriptions for each illustration. Once we receive your ideas, we create a sketch and send it to you for review and feedback. Once the sketch is approved, we move on to coloring. We share the colored version with you, and you can request any changes before we finalize it.
We offer unlimited revisions during the sketch stage and minor revisions after final coloring, to make sure you’re fully happy. We always follow the instructions you give us. If you request a completely different sketch during revisions, there will be an extra charge. A revision means minor changes. For example, changing a character’s clothing is fine. But adding a brand-new character that wasn’t in your original instructions would not be considered a revision.
Once all illustrations are complete, we create the front, back, and spine of your children’s book cover. We make it eye-catching, professional, and a perfect match for your story. The cover is optimized for all major publishing platforms like Amazon KDP, IngramSpark, D2D, Barnes & Noble, BookBaby, Lulu, and more. You can request unlimited revisions for 100% satisfaction.
