Your people, your places, drawn
Every page is illustrated on its own, from that page's scene: who is in it, what the story put them in, and the place you chose.
What it is
Each illustration is ordered on its own. The instruction behind a page is built from that page's scene: which characters are in it, the outfit the story put them in, the place you chose, and the artwork you picked. No two pages go out on one instruction.
What it is for
A picture that belongs to its page is what makes a book worth turning. Generic art can be shuffled between pages and nobody notices; art built out of the scene cannot. It also means the choices you made reach the drawing rather than stopping at the words: the cast, the setting and the look are all in there.
How to use it
- Add a photo under Kids for anyone you have one of, so the drawing has a face to start from.
- Cast the people you want drawn at the Cast step in New Adventure.
- Type the place into the Location box on Scene, so the backdrops are built from somewhere rather than nowhere.
- Pick the look at the Look step, which decides how all of it is rendered.
- Open the finished book from Library and read the pictures against the words on each page.
What we suggest
Give us something specific to draw. A named park beats a city, a kitchen at a particular hour beats a house, and the more a scene carries the more the page carries. Then look through the book yourself before you hand it over. You know these faces better than any check we run does.
