Humorous Grey-Scale Cover Illustration
Budget: $30 – $250 AUD
I need a single, eye-catching book cover drawn in a classic, hand-drawn Disney-style cartoon—strictly grey-scale, no 3D rendering or colour. The scene is playful and a little tongue-in-cheek: a determined Donkey stretching up toward a dangling Carrot, while the light behind it casts a shadow that reads unmistakably as a proud Unicorn, with the carrot doubling as its horn. The overall mood should feel humorous and uplifting rather than sarcastic.
Please work to a finished size of 6 × 9 inches and supply the final art as a high-resolution JPEG suitable for print (300 dpi preferred). I’m happy to review rough sketches first to lock in the composition and character style before you move on to inking and shading. For IP reasons, this can not be AI-generated.
Deliverable
• Final grey-scale illustration, 6 × 9 in, JPEG, ready for print.
If you love classic Disney line work, can handle expressive animal anatomy, and know how to keep the lighting believable enough to sell the unicorn shadow gag, this should be a fun project for both of us.
Attached is an example of the style I am thinking (but AI generated)
