Frequently asked questions
What does the Watercolor storybook style look like?
Soft traditional watercolor with visible cold-press paper grain and gentle blooms.
Can I use Watercolor storybook for a black-and-white interior?
Watercolor storybook 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 Watercolor storybook style.
