Congrats!!!
Cannot wait to hold your book in hands!

@Navya-Raju Omigosh, congratulations Navya!!

@thomas-young But how could they access our local files? Is that even possible?

@ChloeGreenbergArt Both tools are from the same engineers and they both work great!

@MiaNova Very nicely done!

@jvartandillustration Free copies aren't an automatic thing. Even with real publishers, if it's not in your contract it's not happening. For authors especially, many of them don't know much at all about the publishing process and I wouldn't be surprised if your author doesn't even realize free author copies are a thing.

You definitely should have asked before, but since you can't go back in time, you have nothing to lose by asking now. Just say you forgot or something, worst that can happen is a no

@Laurel-Aylesworth Way to go, Laurel! It's hard to walk away, but you respected yourself and your limits No contract is ALWAYS better than a crappy contract! It ties you up so you're not available for something better!

@Sara_C Glad you found it useful!

Great feedback from everybody so far!
I agree with @NessIllustration that a raw, sketchy style tends to benefit from a strong sense of design and clean presentation. So I had a go at redesigning the illustrations you already made.

Couple things to keep in mind when illustrating a book.
Don't repeat yourself. Every image should tell the reader something new.

The three panels were visually communicating the same information.
So I would make the first panel the "establishing shot"

The second panel(s) should focus on the character interaction. In this case the blue boy is worried about the meteor, while the red boy is worried about the blue boy showing up in a backhoe!

The third panel can then show the two boys moving forward in the story. Note that the design of the panels moves from upper left to bottom right (reflecting the way we read a book)

The right page wants to be a full page illustration so just lean into what the page wants to be and make it full page full bleed. The drawings in the dirt seem to be instructions of some kind. But for the reader to understand them they would need to turn the book upside down. More efficient for you (the illustrator) to do that for the reader.

You'll see that I did add some drawing to your images. Not much. just some details that give the images a stronger sense of location. (And I definitely needed to look at a backhoe)

To get a sense of what other illustrators working in a raw, sketchy style are doing to make "finished" work I looked at Beatrice Alemagna.

@Laurel-Aylesworth Good lord, that's a way unrealistic deadline! But they may not even realize that. The people who have decided on these deadlines aren't artists. Don't just give up on the gig! It's time to go on negotiating mode, girl!
