Client Spotlight: Elodie Hart / Sara Madderson
I’ve had the absolute pleasure of collaborating with Elodie Hart @elodiehartsaramadderson on custom character designs for Rafe (Unfurl), and Marlowe and Brendan (Duplicity). Hart, a Top 25 Amazon U.S. spicy romance author, brought readers the wildly popular Alchemy series and its equally seductive spinoff, Seraph. Her interconnected, high-heat stories are rich with emotion, unforgettable characters, and irresistible chemistry.
Alongside the character designs, I also created scenes and animations inspired by the books, bringing to life both the polished glamour of their world and the darker, more intimate moments that make these stories so compelling.
Here’s a peek at what we’ve made together! π₯πβ¨

Character Design Spotlight: Jane β¨
I had such a fun time designing Jane for author Hillary Anna (@hillaryanna_author), and I’m happy to share a peek into the creative process!
Jane might be a supporting character in Hillary’s upcoming book, but she’s definitely not a wallflower. From her bold lilac hair to her quiet, confident presence—and yes, her epic lightning bolt dress—Jane is unforgettable.
Hillary had a clear vision for Jane, and it was a joy bringing her to life and styling her in Hillary’s signature dreamy, dark fantasy aesthetic.
Huge thanks to Hillary for trusting me with another one of her incredible characters! It’s always such a blast working with you! π«Άπ
And if you’re curious about how the custom design process works or what it’s like to collaborate on a character, feel free to ask. I love sharing behind-the-scenes!

Meet Rafe Charlton — the effortlessly magnetic businessman and priest roleplayer from Unfurl, the first installment in Elodie Hart’s (@elodiehartsaramadderson) dangerously addictive Alchemy series.
I had the absolute pleasure of collaborating with Elodie to bring Rafe to life. From the beginning, she had a crystal-clear vision: a character with the smoldering charm of David Gandy and Theo James, but with a presence that’s entirely his own.
We explored multiple prompt iterations and design rounds to fine-tune every detail—his suit, his gaze, his priest persona. In the end, we created a visual embodiment of Rafe that feels true to the world of Alchemy and the glamorous allure behind it.
Huge thanks to Elodie Hart for such a fun collaboration, and for trusting me to visualize one of her unforgettable characters. ππ₯°π

Meet Creed Santoro—The Powerful Corporate Titan of the Santoro Mafia! π₯
I had the absolute pleasure of designing Creed Santoro for spicy romance author Lora Nox (@loranoxauthor)! As the rockstar businessman of his brothers and the headliner of Creed: Santoro Mafia Book 1, Creed needed to exude “alpha-male” appeal and effortless charm. π
Lora had a clear vision—Creed needed to resemble the cover model but with one key book-accurate detail: his striking, icy blue eyes. Eye color plays a huge role in recognizability, so I had to do some experimenting to get the perfect balance.
From fine-tuning his features to making sure his presence felt just right, this was such a fun collaboration with Lora! If you love spicy mafia romance, make sure to add Creed: Santoro Mafia Book 1 to your TBR.
πAnd follow @loranoxauthor—there are more dangerously gorgeous Santoro brothers coming soon! ππ₯

Working with author Hillary Anna ( @HillaryAnna_author ) has been a joy and an honor! I’m so grateful for her trust and for this incredible testimonial. Her words capture our collaborative journey in bringing her characters to life. Thank you, Hillary, for such a beautiful and heartfelt review! β€οΈππ₯°
β¬οΈ Check out what she has to say about our collaboration:
“Lucy (80 Mode) is such a talented, kind hearted, genuine content creator. I will be upfront in stating I wasn’t keen on the idea of using AI for my book art, but after speaking at length with Lucy who answered all my questions (still continues to) in detail, I decided I would rather have something tailored to my work vs. a Pinterest board of celebrity faces.
Lucy has been completely transparent with her use of AI, going as far as breaking down her process in creating each character, with the controversy surrounding AI her honesty is invaluable. With that said working with Lucy has been a literal dream come true.
She takes the time to talk and listen to you, there is never a moment in which you feel the creator is overstepping the writer, she truly cares about bringing your vision to life exactly how you see it. If she doesn’t succeed she won’t stop until you’re satisfied.
It has been such a joy working back and forth to create my words into something visual. To see my characters come to life has been nothing short of inspirational and to see Lucy’s excitement nothing less than motivational. If you are an aspiring author looking for a more personal vision board or an established author looking for someone authentic in their work I highly recommend Lucy.“
