Find a matching mockup

Choose the best mockup option

Use PSD to place your design quickly, 3D for flexible angles, or request a custom mockup for an exact magazine match.

Professional PSD mockups

Layered PSD files let you apply your artwork with Smart Objects while preserving realistic highlights, shadows, reflections, and page curvature.

Best when: You need quick cover or page previews and your magazine format is close to an existing mockup.

Interactive 3D magazine mockups

Built for flexibility, 3D mockups let you rotate the magazine, adjust camera angles and lighting, and create multiple product views from one setup.

Best when: You want to explore different angles, close-up details, compare material finishes, and find the right lighting for your magazine.

Custom magazine mockups

Create an exact magazine mockup around your product, with managed production, expert quality control, and commercial-ready final files.

Best when: Your magazine is too specific for a stock mockup, or you need an exact format, finish, binding, or presentation.
