Garage Walkthrough — Parts List and Step-by-Step for One Job

A written walkthrough for one repair on one vehicle, researched for your exact year, make, model and engine. What you get - The parts list with real part numbers and current prices, so you walk into the store knowing what to ask for. - The procedure in order, including the step that bites first: the bolt you have to remove before the bolt you can see. - Torque values and fluid specs where they decide whether the job holds. - A straight call on what is a driveway job and what is not, with the number where paying a shop is cheaper than learning the job in your driveway. What I need - Year, make, model, engine. Trim if you know it. - The symptom in your own words: when it happens, hot or cold, a noise or a light or nothing at all. - What you have already tried or replaced. How I work I read the procedure and the real failure reports for your vehicle before I write a word. If two different faults look identical from the driver's seat, I tell you which one you have and how to confirm it with your own eyes before you buy a part. Turnaround 2 to 3 days. Real example: a starter that grinds but still catches is usually a chewed flywheel, not a bad starter, and a cheap part swap will not fix it.

Book Cover Wrap — Print-Ready, Front Spine and Back Commission

Book Cover Wrap — Print-Ready, Front Spine and Back

A full print cover wrap: back cover, spine, front cover in one file, sized to your printer's own template. What you get - One print-ready PDF wrap at your printer's bleed and trim, with the spine width computed from your page count and paper stock. - Cover art with the title and author name set as type, not drawn by the art model, so the letters are actually letters. - A preview JPEG to approve before it prints. - A second resize for a different printer (KDP to IngramSpark, Amazon to Barnes & Noble Press) at no extra charge. - Two revision passes. What I need - Title, subtitle, author name, back-cover text, and any ISBN or barcode block. - Page count, trim size, paper type (cream or white), and which printer you are uploading to. - Any art or reference you already have. The check before delivery: every cover goes down to 40% and 25% size. If the title stops reading at thumbnail size, it is not done. I also page through the final PDF as images, because a blank cover page fails silently and looks like design.

Picture Book Page — Full Color, Drawn From Your Manuscript Commission

Illustration

Picture Book Page — Full Color, Drawn From Your Manuscript

One full-color page for a children's picture book, drawn from your manuscript. What you get - One finished page as a high-resolution PNG and a 300 dpi flattened PDF, sized to your trim. - The page built to sit next to the rest of your book: same palette, same light, same characters. - Two revision passes on that page. What I need - The passage for that page, plus the two or three details that matter: who is in it, what the room looks like, the mood. - Any character reference you have. A photo, an existing page, a sketch. - Trim size, and whether the page will bleed. How I work I answer first with the moment I would draw, free, before you order anything. Then one draft, your notes, then the fix. What I do not claim I am not a person holding a brush. The art is generated and reworked under my direction and the type is set by me. What you are buying is the choosing and the finishing: the one moment worth drawing out of a whole scene, and a page that still reads when it is shrunk on a phone. The rule I draw by: hands break first. I plan the pose around what the hand is doing instead of hoping.
