@Aleksey Oh absolutely! It was a unique challenge because each spread was so tone on tone, but I had to make sure every element stood out enough. Also had to figure out how the colors of the characters were going to look when affected by a different color palette. It felt very much like an exercise, in a way!

@Judy-Elizabeth-Wilson Thank you so much Judy, that is so sweet of you to say!
-
Congratulations!! That's an awesome achievement! Getting it done so quickly and with good feelings all around sounds like the best possible outcome, now celebrate!!

@AnnaDaviscourt Thank you Anna! It's been a rough ride, working a good 25-30 hours a week on the book and then an additional 25 on contracts that actually pay the bills, I've been overworked and broke at the same time haha... But now I'm celebrating, taking a break and relaxing! I have barely 10 hours of work this week and it is MUCH NEEDED!

@NessIllustration that’s awesome! How wonderful to have had your first impressions on your publishers be so positive! I’m excited for you to get that next project under way.
I’m not anywhere near published, but I know SVS is truly a gem. It has been invaluable to me in getting this far and encouraging me to chase my dream and work for it.
Two cheers for a job done well and getting your first book “in the books”!
-
@NessIllustration You deserve a big fat break! Did you get decent pay from doing the book?

@NessIllustration so Happy for you Ness! The illustrations are really pretty!!

Congrats, the book look awesome. I love how your illustrations turned out. Your use of colour is perfect. I'm not surprised the publishers loved it and want you to do more work.
Oh and fair play for getting it done in such a short timeframe, that's fantastic!
-
Coooool!!!!! Beautiful
Really happy for you -
@AnnaDaviscourt Hahaha not really
That's why I had to take so many other contracts on the side to pay the bills while also working full time on the book! It was shitty, but my first book so I was willing to put up with it haha -
Thank you so much everyone! I woke up to all these messages and feel swept up in your kind words! Makes me want to jump right in the next project hihi!
