Snapfish illustration book

Remember somewhere at the end of last year, i wrote about the Snapfish offer for a free picture book? I never showed the final result!

I choose to get a white leather cover with a small peephole in the middle which shows my ismoyo girl. The book has 20 full color pages, i'm just showing you a couple to give a feel of how it turned out.

Since the offer was valid for only a couple of days, i had to rush to compile a good variety of my work so far. Went back into my archives to see what i could use. The showgirl on the left got an updated background and the one on the right stayed as she was. (now that i go back to find original blog posts to link to, i realize i never showed the girl on the left before. How strange. I need to include her in my gallery pages too!)

Vive La Fashion is a crop from an illustration i did for a Tigerprint competition last year. (didn't win, but did get a nice write up on their blog!) The lady on the right just had to be included since she was one of the first ever illustrations i did. (she is in my gallery, but never got her own blogpost)

The final book looks very well made, the quality of the cover, the paper used and the prints is very good. There were a few illustrations that came out with some color differences from the original designs, but that's not their fault. I thought i checked all my colors, there are colors used for screen and colors used for printing. I think i overlooked one or two (like the background color for the canal houses, bottom left).

Overall i'm very happy with how it turned out. Especially for something you get for free!
