Pricing Plans
For illustrating a book cover, pricing can depend on several factors, including the style, level of detail, and whether the cover includes just the front or a full wrap-around design (front, spine, and back).
Add-ons:
-
Title Design: If you’re designing a custom title style or unique typography, add £50 - £150.
-
Exclusive Rights: If the author wants exclusive rights to the illustration, there may be a usage fee or a higher rate.
Basic Cover Illustration
(Simple or minimalist design, typically just the front cover)
Ideal for simpler illustrations, like single-character portraits or symbolic elements.
£250 - £500
Standard Full Cover Illustration
(Front cover with background, possibly a bit of detail on the spine and back)
This is for more detailed designs with background elements, custom typography, and a cohesive layout.
£500 - £1,000
Premium or High-Detail Cover
(Full wrap-around cover, complex backgrounds, multiple characters, or intricate details)
For high-complexity designs where more time is needed, especially for fantasy or sci-fi covers, where intricate world-building details are important.
