Illustrations are delivered as high resolution image files, by email, FTP, or can be made available for download from your secured client area on this website. See an example of the image quality. First step The client needs to define the print format and the kinds of elements the illustrations should contain. Tell me if you have a specific style or technique in mind. Please send any reference material such as pictures, sketches, text or layout roughs right away as this will allow me to give you an accurate quote quicker. What's the price? To be able to give you a quote, I need to know what rights you want, and how the illustrations will be published (number of copies, time perspective, geographical distribution and whether the client needs exclusivity or not). Normally you buy the right to use the illustration for a specific project. If you want to use it again later, we will make another contract. In some cases the client can buy all rights. Read the standard terms. Most of the illustrations on this website can be relicensed for a discounted price. I believe in good ideas and wish to support good projects (for example humanitarian or other philanthropic projects). Please ask for a special quote if you feel that your request may apply. The process 1. Contact and request 2. Price quote 3. Order/Acceptance of price and contract terms 4. Sketches for approval* 5. Final comp for approval 6. Final illustration delivered on time *) This step is often omitted for single illustration jobs and urgent missions. What techniques do you use?
