  • Visuals for Training Manuals

    Manuals are always difficult. Not for us! We approach manuals as guides that must quickly convey intent, process, and outcomes to diverse users. Our trained artists can design illustrated manuals that simplify complex content. The way this is done is based on our assessment of your target audience (technical, non-technical, bilingual etc), after which we tailor our approach. Depending on the task, we can also add color-coded elements, clean line work, and visual aids. This is especially useful for safety protocols, repair guides, or onboarding instructions etc, where we want as little ambiguity as possible.

The Noble Illustration Process

Conceptualization & Design

Understanding comes first!
Before a single line is drawn, we take the time to understand your book, its message, tone, and who it's meant for. This step is not about drawing yet, but about discussing ideas. Our creative leads sit down with you and your manuscript and begin the process. We look at your genre, your audience's age group, and the kind of experience you want to create for your readers. Whether you're aiming for something whimsical, realistic, eerie, or colorful, this is where we pin it down. Sample references, color palettes, and illustrative styles are also explored. Finally, using brainstorming, mood boards, and concepts, we create the basic foundation for your project.
This stage is very important, as it sets the tone for the rest of the project!

*

Sketching & Drafting

After the concepts are finalized and a clear direction is set, our trained illustrators begin sketching. These early drafts are not the final product but show layout, structure, & initial character/scene development. The sketches can be rough, but they let us understand positioning, perspective, and proportions before going further. You are encouraged to be as hands-on as you wish! Some clients want to approve every detail, while others prefer to step back and let the artists interpret.
Either way, this stage is built to be collaborative! We’ll present these drafts to you for feedback. If something feels off, this is the time to make changes. Revisions are expected, and our team welcomes them! This stage is where many creative decisions are solidified, and it’s important to get it right before moving on.

*

Illustration & Enhancement

Once sketches are approved, we begin the actual digital rendering! Our illustrators take those outlines and begin transforming them into final images. Here, we use professional digital tools to add detail & depth, while shading, lighting, and texture work bring the illustration to life. The goal is to create a beautiful picture while also trying to capture mood and tone. The process here involves layers, and each component, from backgrounds to facial features, is carefully rendered. At the end, we have a fully rendered work built according to your specifications.

*

Review & Delivery

Once the illustrations are complete, our team performs a thorough quality check, because quality is our priority. This is why each image is reviewed for clarity, formatting, resolution, and color accuracy. If your book is going to print, this is where we make sure the files are compatible with your publisher’s requirements. On the other hand, if it's meant for digital publishing, we format it accordingly. At the end of this process, you’ll receive your illustrations in high-resolution formats, ready for layout or submission! Remember, before final delivery, you can request final tweaks. At Noble, the process ends only when you’re satisfied.

What Clients Are Saying

  • Clara James

    I came to Noble Books with a half-finished manuscript and a lot of doubt! But they worked a real miracle with it. The editor assigned to me was sharp, honest, and (thankfully!) patient. When that first box of books arrived at my doorstep, I cried. Thank you for making this real!

    I was skeptical not gonna lie, but these guys really pulled through. Noble was solid from the jump. Clear timelines and a lot of communication, which is what I was looking for. Now my novel is out and I’ve already got readers emailing me. Unreal.

  • Alicia Rosenthal

    What I loved was the cover design. They didn’t slap some generic cover on my memoir. They listened to what I had to say, they sent options, everything. When I held the final copy, I couldn’t believe how amazing the art was. I felt so proud of my book and so thankful that they’d done suuuuch a good job!

    Let me preface, I’ve worked with a few publishers before. But Noble had the least painful process I’ve ever seen. Every step was well structured and communication was regular(!!!), and the editing was genuinely good. They even helped me brainstorm my sequel. Will work with them again in a heartbeat.

  • Heather Monroe

    As a first-time children’s author, I was reeeaaally nervous! But Noble walked me through the manuscript to the formatting to finding an illustrator who did the most beautiful art I could’ve imagined of my characters! I was really scared of the process at first, but they made it feel possible. Thank you!! 😊

  • Greg & Sybil Parsons

    They worked on a book we coauthored. Very responsive. And they delivered on every promise. The kicker is that they went above and beyond on the marketing, finding a ‘niche’ we didn’t even know the book had. Very nice.
