Illustration Design Brief

12 illustrations required to finish a dinosaur themed children’s book inspired by the three little pigs.
A cover illustration is also needed but could be an illustration used in the book or a mash up of a few.

Unfortunately my budget is not very big, so please feel free to pass up this offer if you see fit.
This book is not initially intended for sale. I am going to print copies for my immediate and extended family as Christmas presents for our young dinosaur loving family members. If the book turns out well, I may create an e-book version that will be a small charge on iBooks.
Of course the designer will get credit for the illustrations on the cover and dedications page.

The style I’m after is clean (not cluttered) vibrant and cartoonish.

In order to save your time, I am happy for you to only submit one illustration from the brief and I will select the designer in order to finish the works.

The story features 3 dinosaur siblings (2 male, 1 female), identifiable as herbivores, leaving home to start their own lives.
The antagonist is a large spinosaurus looking for an easy meal...
