pictures for a childrens book

Job ID: 37326660

Budget: $30 – $250 AUD

I am looking for an experienced and dedicated illustrator to create cartoons for a childrens book. The illustrations are intended for a preschool audience, aged 0-5, and the total number of illustrations required is less than 10. The style must be cartoon-like and the illustrator must propel the story with their art. The book is about a boy and his dad being an aircraft mechanic. Attention to detail is essential, as the illustrations must be captivating and true to the story. I am open to working with a freelancer who can deliver high quality illustrations that bring the story alive.

Drawings are to contain Pilatus PC-21 aircraft in the Australian paint scene, drawings are as follows:

1. Zylus and His Dad: An illustration of Zylus standing next to his father, who is wearing a mechanic's uniform. They're both looking at a PC-21 aircraft on the runway, with tools nearby.

2. Zylus Watching PC-21s: An illustration of Zylus sitting on his porch, gazing up at the PC-21s as they perform aerobatics in the clear blue sky. The planes are leaving white smoke trails.

3. Zylus Teaching Friends: An illustration of Zylus surrounded by his friends at the airfield. He's showing them how to change spark igniters and explaining the importance of aircraft maintenance.

4. Corrosion Inspection: An illustration of Zylus using a magnifying glass to inspect an aircraft's metal surface for signs of corrosion. His keen eye and focused expression are evident.

5. Aerobatic Display: An illustration of a PC-21 aircraft performing aerobatic stunts in the sky, looping and soaring. Zylus and his friends watch in awe from the ground.

6. Zylus and Friends by the Runway: An illustration of Zylus and his friends standing near the runway, feeling the rush of air as a PC-21 aircraft roars by. Their expressions show their excitement.

These illustrations can complement the story and help young readers visualize the scenes and characters as they follow Zylus's journey to becoming a PC-21 mechanic.
