Author copies mockup: your box of books has arrived
An opened box of your author copies on the floor, one lifted out, the parcel label in your words. For the day the proofs land.
Free to start. No signup to try. Nothing stamped on your exports.

What the author copies does
The box of author copies is the moment a book becomes real, and the picture readers love to see: the flaps open, the covers in rows, one copy standing up at the back.
In DudeCovers the box is built in 3D and every copy in it is your book, at its real trim and thickness. Pick a shipping box with its flaps open, a mailer with the lid lifted, or a wooden crate, on floorboards, a pale floor or a rug.
The parcel label is yours to write: a heading, who it's for and a line at the bottom. Walk the camera round the box with a drag, or come in close on the cover.
