Are you ready to make readers notice your book? Our book illustration services are here to help with eye-catching visuals and creative designs.
Our "RealMagic" technique gives dragons scales you can almost feel and starships that seem ready to fly, making our style genuinely distinctive.
Our "Mind Meld" sessions transform the collaboration process. Authors join us in a virtual reality studio, stepping into a 3D mockup of their book's world.
We even create "history of art" documents for your world, showcasing the evolution of its visual style. This attention to detail results in a rich, immersive experience for readers.
We create concept art, designs for collectible card games, and 3D models, laying the foundation for a multi-media franchise while keeping a consistent and captivating visual style.
We offer bespoke cover designs tailored to reflect the essence of your story, making your book stand out on the shelf and capture potential readers' attention immediately.
One of the most effective ways to capture the attention of potential readers is through stunning and eye-catching book illustrations. High-quality illustrations not only enhance the visual appeal of your book but also significantly boost its marketability and sales.
No more were illustrations flat images; the new raised ink technology takes our book illustrations into a new dimension. At their very fingertips, feel the dragon's scales or touch the rough bark of a tree in an enchanted forest. We do this by infusing light textures in all our illustrations, thus drawing the sense of touch even deeper into your readers. This unique feature will be especially effective for children's books and fantasy novels but can make any genre a book to remember.
Introduce your readers to the story location with our new, innovative, scented ink illustrations. Our master perfumers have developed a collection of enduring, book-safe scents to be embedded in select illustrations. Think of the saltiness in the breeze coming off the ocean from that pirate ship illustration or the smell of rich coffee from an illustrated, ambient coffee shop—these scent spots do far more than enhance your reading experience; they offer a way to score memories in an unforgettable way.
Animating Illustrations Step into the future of storytelling with our AR-enhanced illustrations—created in partnership with top AR developers, our illustrations come alive when viewed through the camera of any smartphone or tablet. Your readers will be able to see the characters move, watch additional story elements unfold, or even interact with 3D models of some key objects from your book. That takes the distance from traditional books and digital media out. Still, it appeals to the more tech-savvy reader without taking that charm away from physical books.
Make your readers experience the magic of illustrations with transformation. Thanks to the latest chromotropic inks, we create images whose colors change through temperature or exposure to light: a sunny-day scene that might reveal more detail when warmed by the reader's hand or a night-time one that might reveal twinkling stars in the dark. That kind of interactivity gives the book a new level of engagement, in which fresh features of the illustration are disclosed with every reading.
Visualizing Sound and Taste Set new limits to sensory illustration with color techniques inspired by synesthesia. We base our color palette inferences on research into this fascinating neurological phenomenon, and we, therefore, work with color to symbolize sound, taste, or even feelings. We might use a character's voice portrayed by swirls of colors that the reader would, in his subconscious, link to warmer or cooler tones, for instance. Or the tastes of foods you write about in your cookbook might be only barely subtly evoked by getting the right hues just so. Readers might not notice but would feel an added level of sensory richness.

Book illustrations are supposed to present with a very careful and thoughtful approach. At American Publishing Studios, we know how to keep the quality and characteristics of the illustration in storytelling alive so that the process is engaging to the readers. Here's how the book illustration process goes about:
The process starts with an initial idea-consulting session to establish your vision, themes, and the message that you wish to bring forth in your book. We discuss preferences, target audience, and any specific ideas you have for the illustrations. This gives us a clear idea that speaks towards your narrative and artistic identity.
With the concept in place, our team of seasoned illustrators goes to work creating a detailed storyboard. During this process, rough sketches are made for each of the illustrations, clearly defining the main scenes and actions. The storyboard then plays a critical role in visualizing the book's flow so that the layout of each image can be perfectly integrated with the text.
Characters and scenes represent the soul of an illustrated book. Through collaboration with you, we will create distinctive, memorable characters whose qualities truly resonate with your audience. Our illustrators take care of the details: facial expressions, costumes, and even elements in the background, all done to bring out the right impression and setting for your story.
The color palette and style of illustration are paramount factors that determine the aesthetics of your book, so our team will look into different color schemes and styles of art to present you with your options. Be it a riot of colors or muted tones, we customize the illustrations for you so they echo your vision of the overall look.
We believe in collaborating with you. We provide you initial sketches and drafts, after which we accept your feedback and suggestions. This iterative process is whereby we refine the illustration with your feedback so that when we are through with the final artwork, it would look exactly how you envisioned it to be. We greatly appreciate your feedback and go to extra lengths to incorporate it in the illustrations.
After all the necessary modifications have been done to incorporate your feedback, the illustrations are set towards production of the final output. Our illustrators use advanced techniques and tools to create refined, detailed artwork. Each single illustration is worked out to the smallest detail so that it is beautiful and polished in a professional style.
"All I can say is that it wowed me—the book illustrations that the team has given to me. They exactly turned the book into a glorious piece of artwork I wanted. They were very communicative in detail, making sure every bit of detail corresponded to my description. Truly a very outstanding service! "
"I could say the illustrations for my book were excellent. The work was very responsive to my needs, and it really made the story come alive. Strongly recommend the services of this company! "
" I am quite pleased with the book illustrations. The team was highly professional and, besides being talented, was very cooperative. They tried their level best to get my ideas perfectly placed in the artwork. Highly recommended! "
Our illustration service doesn't just enhance your book; it equips you with powerhouse marketing tools for pre-release excitement and signings. We craft a series of teaser illustrations that you can unveil step-by-step on social media and your author website, leading to your book release and signing events.
We can bring some life to your book signings by offering more than just autographs—an event where illustrated merchandise will be designed. Like in the past, we've done limited edition prints, bookmarks, or even collector cards. Exclusive to that signing event: one more reason for an interested fan to make it to that event rather than just ordering the same items online. More importantly, bookstores host authors who bring crowds and additional sales, and the promise of exclusive merchandising options with beautiful illustrations.
You know what they say: an image is worth a thousand words—especially when you're trying to capture an audience at a book signing. Major illustrations can be professionally edited into large-format printouts, which can be displayed in view of all guests at the event; other options are slideshows and even dynamic animated versions. Those visual aids aren't just good for brightening up your table display; they make for superb talking points that keep you interactive with signing attendees.
Feel free to ask us anything about our services.
