Frequently asked questions
What does the Crayon & oil pastel style look like?
Waxy, joyful crayon strokes in bright primaries on textured cream paper.
Can I use Crayon & oil pastel for a black-and-white interior?
Crayon & oil pastel is a color-first look. For a black-and-white interior, pick one of the line-art styles instead, or keep this style for the cover and color pages.
How do I keep characters consistent across pages?
Describe your main characters once when you plan the book. kdpbook.us reuses that description on every illustration prompt so the same character appears throughout, in the Crayon & oil pastel style.
