I already have a high-resolution image I created through ChatGPT’s image generation tools, and now it needs a personal touch. The core composition works, but the piece lacks the polish and originality required for solid copyright protection. Here’s what I need you to do: make the people look like people and not AI • Color enhancements – richer tones, truer blacks, and balanced highlights so the picture pops off the shelf while still printing accurately in CMYK. • Fix elements in reference to scale/composition. The final artwork must remain realistic in style and convey a strong natural theme. Please keep the overall mood consistent with the original concept, yet distinctive enough to be considered a fresh, copyrightable work. Deliverables • Print-ready cover image at 300 DPI, sized for 6" × 9" (front) plus spine and bleed. • Layered PSD or TIFF so future title text and back-cover copy can be edited. • Flattened JPEG/PNG for digital mock-ups. • Brief change log describing the artistic additions and color grading decisions. I’ll supply the original AI file and reference notes as soon as we start. Looking forward to seeing how you can elevate this piece into a unique, book-shop-ready cover.

Hello! My name is Olga - nice to meet you! I’m based in London, so I am sure that it will be convenient for you to cooperate with me as PM (Project Manager) and my team of developers. We would be happy to help refine your AI-generated artwork into a polished, natural, and print-ready book cover with a truly human touch. We understand the goal is not to redesign the concept, but to carefully enhance realism, correct proportions and composition, and apply professional color grading so the image feels authentic, balanced, and suitable for high-quality CMYK printing while remaining faithful to the original mood. Our approach will focus on retouching and repainting key areas to make the people look natural rather than AI-generated, improving scale and visual harmony across the composition, and enriching tones, blacks, and highlights to give the artwork depth and shelf presence. At the same time, we will introduce subtle artistic refinements that make the final piece distinctive enough to qualify as an original, copyrightable work while preserving the intended atmosphere and theme.

Hi, I understand exactly what you’re aiming for, taking an AI base and pushing it into something more natural, polished, and truly publish ready. I’ve worked on similar enhancements where the goal was to remove that “AI look” and bring back realism, proper anatomy, lighting, and depth. I’ll refine the characters so they feel human, correct proportions and composition issues, and apply controlled color grading for rich tones that still print accurately in CMYK.

What I’ll do: (1) elevate realism by refining lighting, skin tones, and textures so people genuinely resemble themselves; (2) apply color grading to deliver richer tones, truer blacks, and balanced highlights that still print faithfully in CMYK; (3) adjust scale and composition to align with front cover and spine requirements; (4) deliver print-ready 6"×9" cover at 300 DPI with bleed, plus layered PSD/TIFF for future edits, a flattened JPEG/PNG for digital mockups, and a concise change log detailing color grading and artistic additions; (5) maintain the original mood while making the piece clearly unique and copyrightable. If you share the original AI file and notes, I’ll begin on wireframes and provide a quick proof within two business days, followed by a final delivery in under a week.
