    I need to make a book cover for a sci -fi dystopian novel. The cover should look like an academic textbook that has aged 300 years; it is still legible, but should be worn, weathered, and faded in places. The ISBN is a key feature, but I think it would be appropriate for the aging to erase the letters "ISBN" so as not to confuse the reader with any real barcodes with this novel. The back cover blurb should be "DUMB 31 was constructed to ensure the long-term survival of human life in the event of global environmental collapse.

    I'm looking for a high-quality book cover for a sci-fi adventure novel. The book description is attached as a separate file — please read it before designing. Format Aspect ratio: 5:7 (portrait) Clean space at the top OR bottom for the title (title will run across two lines) Composition Protagonist in the foreground, starship in the background.

    I have completed a full draft of my “Text” genre manuscript and now need it professionally brought to publication standard. The work must retain an academic tone throughout while becoming clear, polished, and error-free. Your role begins with a detailed editorial pass—developmental where necessary, then line editing and proofreading.

Parallel to that, I want a clean, minimalist cover that features my supplied logo prominently yet tastefully. Think ample white space, refined typography, and a balanced spine/back layout ready for standard trim sizes. Deliverables • Edited manuscript in Word (tracked changes) and final print-re...

    I’m publishing a children’s picture book that follows two women who fall in love during an unforgettable journey through Israel. The vision is a vibrant, realistic watercolor look—rich washes of colour, gentle line work, and genuine warmth that will resonate with kids and parents alike. For the first milestone I only need the cover, featuring the two protagonists and an evocative Israeli backdrop, with room for the title only. Should everything align creatively (and within my limited budget) I’ll move on to commission the remaining 10–20 interior illustrations in the same style, so think of the cover as the gateway to a fuller collaboration. Deliverables • Full-bleed cover illustration (front, spine, back) in CMYK 300 dpi, ready for print and ebook. ...

    I’m preparing to launch my fantasy novel and I need a lively, cartoon-style cover that immediately pulls readers into the story. The scene must put the main characters front and center—think expressive poses, bold colours and enough personality that a reader can sense their relationship before even turning the first page. Your illustration will wrap a standard 6 × 9 in. paperback, so I’ll need the full layout (front, spine and bleed) at 300 dpi, delivered as both a flattened print-ready PDF and a layered PSD or AI file for any last-minute tweaks. Include room for the title and my name, but keep those on separate text layers so I can adjust fonts later. To make sure the cover sings: • Cartoonish rendering that still feels epic and adventurous • Cl...
