Custom illustrations

Illustrations are just one of the services under our umbrella of 120+ design solutions. But there are also many applications that custom illustrations can have for you and your business. These can include:

• Website graphics
• Social media content
• Characters & mascots
• T-shirts
• Merch design
• Packaging
• Print collateral
• Posters
• Children’s books
• Advertisements
• Infographics
• Game assets
• And more

If you’ve got a presentation coming up with a tight deadline, for instance, you might be tempted to turn to free or paid stock illustrations for a quick and painless solution. But the truth is, stock illustrations degrade your credibility.

If you’re presenting something to the public, pre-made illustrations can make you look unprofessional or water down your brand identity. Custom illustrations, on the other hand, can set you apart, presenting a unique style that makes you or your brand more memorable.

Illustrations add character to your visuals. They can make an article more engaging, a podcast more intriguing, or an ad more memorable. A professional illustrator like the ones at Penji can create custom illustrations that appeal directly to your target audience, whether that’s trendy designs for teens or polished elegance for professionals.

Yes. Penji is always looking for new ways to innovate, and that includes integrating A.I. solutions into our workflow without sacrificing human creativity.

One way we can do this is by creating illustrations and graphics using A.I. art as inspiration. If you want to turn an AI creation into a full-fledged illustration, you can simply upload it while filling out your project request form. A detailed visual aid is a great way to ensure you get the type of design you’re looking for.

Penji is a subscription-based graphic design service. Unlike with other graphic design and illustration solutions, you pay a monthly (or quarterly/yearly) subscription fee and receive as many designs as you need for that pay period, with no additional costs or contracts.

Penji also offers single-use design and illustration services through our marketplace. Here, you can connect with our in-house team to create one illustration for a one-time cost.

In either case, you’ll be working with our in-house team of designers. Every illustrator at Penji is a vetted part of our team, which allows us to promise quality that freelance services can’t.

Once you sign up, you can create your first project right away with our simple project forms. Here, you explain your request in detail, attach references and necessary elements, and select style preferences to find the right fit.

From there, our A.I. will automatically match you with an available illustrator, so your project gets started within seconds. You’ll receive your first draft in 1-2 days, and you can request unlimited revisions.

When you’re finished, download your project with source files included and rate your experience. If you liked your designer, you’ll get to work with them more in the future. For subscription users, the next project in your queue will be started automatically once your first project is delivered.

Penji’s illustrators and graphic designers are all hired in-house, never freelance or third-party. Applicants to join the Penji team go through a rigorous process to test their skills such as speed, creativity, and communication. Only the top 2% of talent is hired.

The only limit on Penji’s subscription service is time. In other words, you’ll never “run out” of illustrations. The amount you get, however, will depend on how complex your projects are, how much you need, and how many revisions you request.

For instance, if you only made simple, straightforward illustration requests—and you were on the Agency plan—you could receive as many as 40-50 illustrations in a month. But in reality, it’s more likely that some requests will take longer than others, or need more revisions before they’re perfect.

It’s not always about quantity, although we do offer a higher quantity of designs than freelance or agency solutions. Penji’s quick, streamlined process ensures that every illustration is delivered promptly and catered to your needs.
