1, Outline: Before making a picture book, you should make a list of the outline of the whole picture book, which is a category similar to books, so that you can quickly find the information you want to know and the prompt information that can provide help in time.
2. Setting: Think about the personal image and the general image characteristics of people or other things around you in advance. At this time, you need to think about the picture in advance, and then use it to draw picture books in different links. The picture should be as simple as possible, not too many colors.
3. Line drawing and coloring: the most important and time-consuming stage in the whole drawing process. As an important form of visual communication in modern design, it has the characteristics of intuitive image, true sense of life and beautiful appeal.
4. Text: After the basic picture is completed, you can attach interesting articles or punctuation marks to each picture appropriately to show the atmosphere, intonation and context that can be expressed. I don't recommend too many words here, it's simple and clear.
Paying attention to all aspects of knowledge or sorting out the whole process will be a summary and general idea of the picture book. If you have a special idea, it's ok to match it at will according to interesting stories. We can try to be casual and live a little, but being too deliberate will cause a kind of pressure and fail to achieve the original intention of making picture books.

The difference between picture books and picture books;
Some people use the word "picture book" to distinguish some picture books, most of which are specially drawn by independent painters, with obvious personal style, mainly based on the picture itself.
We often see some illustrated books. Although the pictures in these books are very interesting, they are only a supplement to the text, and they are just pictures with the function of the text system. This kind of books is more common in textbooks and supplementary books. The pictures in the book do not have the function of "picture language".
Compared with China's traditional comics and cartoons, the latter is like a traditional stage play, and readers can only watch it from a certain angle, which will produce a great sense of distance. Picture books for children are like movies for children. It not only shows a broad vision, but also highlights the details. It has an extremely interesting story, which hides the rhythm design of starting, carrying, flipping and combining.
Some cartoon children's books based on pictures are also different from picture books. These paintings and calligraphy are beautiful, and the picture is the solidification of mobile comics, which has lost the charm of activities in form. The plot of the picture has been "dismembered" and it is difficult to express the original content. The pictures in the book are just symbols to evoke memories of the comic plot. The words are simple, and the pictures have greatly aroused the interest of young readers.
