Plush toy diorama illustrations for KDP books (AI)

Cute plush stuffed toys in a miniature diorama: soft fuzzy fabric, visible stitching, felt props, tilt-shift macro photography and warm window light, for a cozy nursery mood.

kdpbook.io can illustrate your whole KDP book in the plush toy diorama style: each main character first gets a reference sheet in this style, and every page is drawn from those sheets so the characters look the same from cover to last page. It is recommended for 3 of the 36 book types (picture book, bedtime story collection and baby & toddler book) and prints in color only.
