Every cover is different and special in their own way. The price depends on a few factors: idea, amount of characters, background difficulty, etc.

Example 1: a cover with just an object or character portrait & simple background (almost everything except full sceneries) would be estimated at €335. 

Example 2: a cover with 2 characters + full background would be estimated at €500

I always take between 4-6 weeks to finish a cover design, this all depends on my own schedule and the details of the commission. 

Please keep in mind that I can’t always start your commission right away, this all depends on the waiting list (check the status at the top of this page). However it is possible to reserve a spot for the coming months! 

Rush orders are available when my schedule allows it, please check with me first. A rush order fee will be calculated depending on the given deadline.

The artist will keep all the rights to the illustration created, unless a copyright transfer has taken place (fees will be calculated per project).

The artist can always share the artwork on her socials & website, unless discussed otherwise.

An exclusive commercial licence is included in the price.

Accepted payments are through Paypal and IDEAL and will always be payed in Euro’s (€).

An upfront 50% payment is required after the concept sketches have been delivered. The artist will not continue the commission until the payment has been received. The other 50% will be payed after the illustration has been finalised.

In case of cancellation of a project:

Refunds will be calculated according the amount of work and time the artist has spend on the illustration. 

I want to commission book covers for my series, is there a discount?

Yes, there is! When commissioning multiple covers for the same series you get a 15% discount per cover!

What information do you need to get started?

I mostly need the general idea (and if you don’t have an idea yet, I would be happy to brainstorm with you!) and descriptions of everything that is important (characters, environment, maybe important objects, etc.). I also need the dimensions of your book and preferably the KDP book cover template download. 

How many concepts/drafts will I receive?

It really depends on how broad the spectrum of your idea is. I always make at least 4 concept sketches and won’t mind making a few more when requested. And when multiple concepts need to be explored, I will mostly include a few more.

Do you offer payment plans?

We can always discuss a payment plan that works for you!

What file formats will I get?

PNG, JPEG & PDF (both in spread and front cover only)

Do you handle the printing process or recommend printers?

No, sorry. I am from the Netherlands and have only so many resources and since most of my commissions come from other countries, I sadly cannot handle or recommend printers.
