Here is a quick quiz.

First, please take a look at this image.

Next, look at this one.

Did you notice the difference between the two?

The answer is...

The“character illustration”in the image is different. (Sorry, that was too easy.)

While it is obvious that the appearance changes because the illustrations are different,the overall impression of the design is also different, isn't it?

Actually, besides the illustration, there is one otherinvisible but significant difference, which I will explain later.

Which one would you choose?

Are you struggling to find human assets?

\ Instagram Designers /
　\ Infographic Designers /

You use human assets a lot, don't you?

“No, no, I don't use them at all.”

If that's you, I recommend closing this article here.

With the evolution of AI, we live in an era where anyone can quickly create designs.

That is precisely why I believe designers are also struggling every day to provide their own “unique value.”

I am one of those people myself.

“Assets,” which are an important element for differentiating designs

A while ago, it was a big topic in the industry that PIXTA, a major Japanese stock photo company, banned the submission of AI-generated assets.

Perhaps the value of handmade assets is being re-evaluated.

I digressed a bit, but “human assets” in design are“human assets”are

ーーーーーーーーーーーー
・The effect of an eye-catching thumbnail in an instant
・Ability to express the message you want to convey through expressions and poses
　<Easier to move the target's emotions and evoke empathy>
・Ability to guide the viewer's gaze using the person's eyes or pointing direction
ーーーーーーーーーーーー

and so on, while playing an important role, they can also be called the face of a design that can bring out one-of-a-kind individuality.

But...

The reality is that the more you focus on quality, the more time and money it costs.

However, contrary to your intentions, you can't find an ideal environment that satisfies both your budget and the need for good assets, leaving you a 'stock asset refugee' 😭

Of course, you shouldn't compromise on choosing assets that are essential to your design, butin reality, the money and time you can spend are limited, right?

I created this to help reduce those struggles ↓↓

The '1,800 People & Animal Illustration Package' that solves your people asset troubles

For those of you who want to cut costs and time while solving your 'people asset' troubles...

Spending 30 minutes repeating 'search → hit → back to square one with paid assets.' And in the end, settling for free assets you aren't quite satisfied with...

This might dramatically reduce your time and stress.

Returning to the initial point,

This takesabout 30 minutes for image searching (including processing like color adjustments).

On the other hand, this only requires opening a folder on your computer, so searching takes 0 minutes. Color adjustments and minor edits (such as adding a scale) take about 4 minutes.

The “invisible but significant difference” I mentioned at the beginning refers to the “time” spent searching for and editing these assets.

Improve your design quality while reducing the time spent to less than one-seventh.

Doesn't the professional feel increase significantly when your illustrations have a sense of unity?

5 Key Points of the People & Animal Illustration Package

I have condensed everything I want to tell you about this package.

Requests for different color variations of existing assets are also fine! Please be aware that assets created based on requests may also be sold on various paid stock sites.

What you can do with the character and animal illustration package

The images included in the character and animal illustration package are

and can be used for general 'commercial design', whether for your own projects or client work. (*Content contrary to public order and morals, and redistribution, transfer, or sale of the assets themselves are prohibited.)

Of course, personal use is also fine, such as for public relations materials made for PTA work or printing on goods for your own use♪

Since there are many illustrations with a gentle touch that are easy to relate to, they are a perfect match for social media posts and designs aimed at women and families!

Here are images actually created using the assets↓↓↓

Excluding simple shapes like squares and text, everything is created with images from the package.

<Flyers and web ads for seminars aimed at women>

<Instagram feed post image (top image)>

<Diagrams to insert into blogs, etc.>

<Reviews to insert into blogs, websites, etc.>

<Eye-catching images for blogs, note articles, etc.>
There are also illustrations that have a big impact just by placing them.

<Event flyers/web ads>

The art style is easy to unify and use, and it also helps differentiate your work from famous free illustration sets◎

Maximize the effect by pairing them with character illustrations! Why not also collect decorative assets?

Character illustrations become the face of your design and determine the impression.

By using decorative assets along with them, you can further boost the effectiveness of your design!

Our sister product, the "Decorative Asset Package," makes this possible.

I have polished up three of the designs you saw earlier by also using the "Decorative Asset Package."

<Turn on frames for diagrams>

<Turn on masking tape and marker assets>

<Turn on colorful frames and decorations>

You can create designs that move emotions with just characters, but by adding decorations, you can complete a unique, highly detailed design that is truly your own.

Unit Price Simulation for People/Animal Illustration Package

This is unrelated, but I've finally gotten used to saying “simulation” correctly. (The “shumulation” habit was hard to break...)

It was a bit scary to break it down into unit prices, but I calculated it thinking it might help you realize how cost-effective it is again.

When converting the cost per illustration in the people/animal package into a monetary value

I'm counting quite conservatively, so in reality, it's likely even lower.

Looking at the numbers, I feel like I might have gone too far, but there's no turning back now.

I compared it with paid stock services and Canva subscription fees.

Honestly, it's an exceptional value.

The assets are on par with paid stock sites, and there are no limits on the number of uses. Of course, there are no cancellation fees either.

Even if you look at it quite critically, you'll break even if you use just 11 assets!
(Paid stock site PIXTA JPEG/PNG 550 yen per item x 11 items = 6,050 yen)

If you also want to save time searching for decorative assets, I recommend the value set magazine. The cost per asset drops even further!

\ A value magazine with two packages bundled for 2,160 yen off! /

That said, paid stock sites and paid subscriptions have the advantage of allowing you to use a wide range of high-quality assets across various genres and styles.

I think a paid subscription is essential for those who work on a wide variety of design genres.

So, is the “Character & Animal Package” completely useless for those who must use paid assets? Not necessarily.

If that sounds like you, please use the Character & Animal Illustration Package as a secondary resource.

By using the assets available in the package and only using your paid stock credit packs for what you're missing, there is a high possibility that you will reduce your total costs!

Who should not purchase the Character & Animal Illustration Package

If you are completely satisfied with your current asset environment and don't feel any inconvenience at all,
I cannot recommend it to you.

For example...

For those people, I recommend keeping your current setup.

However, if you have even the slightest desire to change your current situation, please take a look^^

Introduction to the designers who helped create the package

I would like to introduce the two people who helped with the production of this package.

They are active designers, "Yuta Nakajima (Nakaji) ("@Nakaji_free)" and "Sui ("@hananosui)"! *The items in parentheses are their X accounts (please excuse the omission of honorifics in the introduction images🙇‍♀️)

I packaged these assets while asking these two, who specialize in diagram and slide design, about the assets they use most often.

It's not just me; I have also incorporated the voices of other designers, so I believe these are more practical assets.

Thank you so much m(_ _)m

Take your designs to the next level with two packages that truly communicate

“People (Animals)” × “Accents”

Equip both for a perfect environment ◎
Designs that often leave you lost for assets will be upgraded while saving you time!

The “people (animals)” mainly introduced in this article are the eye-catchers of your design and the main assets that breathe “emotion” into it.

By adding “accent assets” to them, you can make information easier to understand while deepening the world of your design.

With both, you can complete “communicative” diagrams that capture hearts!

--- Why is it recommended to get both packages?

Buying the “accent assets” and “people/animal illustrations” together saves you 2,160 yen compared to buying them separately!

You can enjoy a slightly luxurious lunch with the money you save ^^

Please consider purchasing soon, as the prices for each package and the set magazine may increase without notice due to reasons such as the addition of assets or an increase in the value of the illustrations!
