Hi Adam, I have a burning question I would love to ask you… I have been asked to illustrate a second picture book with the same format and characters as the first edition, so consistency is key. But my technique and style have improved since then.
Although I created the characters I now think they look stiff and overworked. When I draw them now they look slightly different but in my eyes so much better! But the editor and author want to keep them exactly the way they were!
I’m not even sure I can recreate them again as my drawing style has relaxed and I have found my new style. How would you approach this problem?
