I’m currently working on a children’s book series titled "The Protector of the Light", it will be a long-standing series that will start this year with 7 interactive stories revolving around 7 ethical and moral values (each around 30–35 pages). Our children will be the main character of these stories. Through AI we will integrate the animated images of the buyer's child into the story. The child becomes the "Protector of the Light" traveling across unique planets meeting unique and mystical creatures who have lost their way and their sun is starting to fade! To restore light to their fading star the Protector must figure our which moral value these creatures have lost and must figure out how to restore it. Once the moral trait of the story is restored the star reignites lighting up the skies with the beautiful colors of a nebula. The project focuses on creating a gentle, immersive experience where the visuals carry emotion, atmosphere, and a sense of wonder. We have started writing the first book and now we are looking for the following: * Illustrations across most pages (mix of full pages, some double spreads, and close-up moments) * Strong environmental storytelling similar to what you’ve shown in your work * Consistent character design across pages * Ability to naturally integrate space for Arabic text (text boxes and dialogue placement) Key details: * The main character will always change as we will be integrating the buyer's child into the story. This means that we need to have the main character's body be consistent, like maybe wearing our a very unique space outfit. This will simplify the task as we will only need to change the face. This also means that the main character shouldn't have anything covering his face nor have too many angles. * Each story will include a visual guide from the writer to support the illustration process * There will be some character's and place that are present in all stories, like: - The “caller to adventure” who will be a group of small, cute but wise creatures that have a shared consciousness - The Parter of the hero, who will be a walking and talking Tamagochi (an old gameboy like thing). kinda like "BMO" from Adventure Time - A main base where the main character will travel from the planets * Each planet has its own unique identity, colors, physics and very unique creatures Workflow: * Start with 1 test illustration * If it aligns well, this becomes a longer-term collaboration across the full series * Each book is 30 - 35 pages long, sometimes with small art sometimes with full pages and once or twice with a full double page artwork in special moments of the story * We will start with 7 books this year, and plan on expanding the series on a yearly basis Theres much more details to share, If this resonates with you, I’d love to hear your thoughts. Then we can discuss timing and pricing Looking forward to hearing from you. Qutaiba Malki

Hi Qutaiba, Your concept for The Protector of the Light feels imaginative, meaningful, and visually rich. I’d love to help create the illustration style for this Quranic kids story series, starting with the test illustration and then building a consistent look across the books. I have experience with children’s book illustration, character consistency, fantasy environments, expressive storytelling, and page compositions that leave natural space for text. I can help design the hero’s signature space outfit, recurring characters like the wise creatures and Tamagochi style companion, plus unique planets with their own mood, colors, and creatures. The visuals will feel gentle, magical, and child friendly while supporting the moral value behind each story. Portfolio: https://www.freelancer.com/u/Humaumair12 Warm Regards, Huma
