GRAPHICNOVEL002 is a generic graphic novel with an adhesive-bound spine (no staples). This PSD Mockup for a graphic novel represents roughly 300 pages — about the thickness of the WATCHMEN graphic novel if you happen to have one.  These adhesive-bound graphic novels tend to share a similar set of dimensions where the height and width can differ by very small increments, usually just 5mm (3/8) in either direction.  The thickness of the comic book novel can vary from just a few dozen pages to over 300 as this product mockup does.  If your graphic novel design only needs a thin spine then have a look at the COMICBOOK series of Actions, those will render standard comic books as well as thin graphic novels.  Although the thickness of ~300 pages, this Action has been used to represent books from 100 to 450 pages simply by adjusting the design to fit the mockup (unless you are rendering manufacturing specs no one will notice if you make the design fit the template ;).

GRAPHICNOVEL001 is a generic adhesive-bound graphic novel. Graphic novels can range from a few dozen pages to a few hundred, this PSD Mockup represents the thickness of about 300 pages and used the WATCHMEN graphic novel as the product template. Graphic novels, like comic books, have a standard-ish product dimension.  While this particular product measures 168mm x 258mm (6.6in x 10.1in) others can be shorter or wider by up to 5mm (3/8), all the rendered samples in this post for example used content that came from graphic novels whose dimensions varied very slightly. This is a product shot, not a manufacturing spec, don't worry about squeezing your work to fit.  The final product is rendered standing up at a roughly 45° angle facing forward, the view is from straight on at the centre of the graphic novel.  In this shot, only the spine and cover designs for your book are visible — you can render the back of the book simply by placing your artwork into the template as usual and then flipping the artwork in the SPINE area horizontally and in the COVER area horizontally. Essentially the template remains the same but the artwork is reversed. After rendering STEP 2 the graphics on the product will be reversed, simply flip the entire canvas horizontally and your design will now appear properly and you will have created a render of the back of your book.

SOFTCOVER020 is a top-down view of an open softcover book. This PSD Mockup renders your 2D design onto both the left and right pages of an approximately 300-page softcover book.

SOFTCOVER018 is a softcover book on a flat space. This PSD Mockup applies your 2D book design onto the front cover and the spine of the book. The result presents your softcover book as resting on a flat surface, the resulting PSD contains fully editable layers which can be modified to provide the proper type of lighting and shadows for your product. The final softcover represents a thickness of 300 pages and is viewed from 30° looking down, the book itself is rotated 30° off-centre.

SOFTCOVER017 is a rotated softcover book product laying down on a flat surface. This PSD Mockup renders your designs onto a softcover book rotated to 45° with a view looking down at 30° — this softcover manual is made to appear to be about 300 pages thick.

SOFTCOVER016 is a softcover book product for presenting design concepts to clients, publishers or presentations. This PSD Mockup simulates a softcover book on a flat surface at a 45° position — the book represents a thickness of approximately 300 pages. The final render presents the manual laying on a flat surface with a downward angle of 45° looking directly at the book (which itself is rotated to 45°).

SOFTCOVER015 is a generic softcover paperback manual product mockup. This PSD Mockup renders a softcover product on a solid surface with a 30° rotation — the mockup simulates a thickness that represents a typical 300-page book. The end result presents your artwork as a manual facing directly forward with a downward angle of 45°.

SOFTCOVER014 is a typical softcover software or how-to manual. This PSD Mockup renders your 2D artwork as a softcover manual laying on a flat surface with a thickness representative of 300 pages. The final render is facing the softcover directly from above looking down at 30°.

SOFTCOVER013 is an open book mockup laying on a flat surface. This PSD Mockup template is rendered face on looking down on the softcover from a 45°. This eBook represents a physical counterpart with approximately 300 pages.

SOFTCOVER012 is a 300-page mockup of a common softcover handbook manual. This PSD Mockup template is rendered flat on a hard surface with a 30° angle, the final softcover shot looks down at your mockup from a 45°.
