Here are a couple more images on how the book is made. A lot of green screen work.

Sorry another quick concept idea for my next book. Sketchup and photoshop. (public domain octopus.)

Very nice

You have a great imagination, Stuart!
-
You may have to go full time, I hope this makes you heaps of dosh. Bloomin' good luck to you.

Thanks for the nice comments! It has been difficult getting noticed in the book world but it is fun to try!
Here is another quick speed painting concept. I use my computer mouse and Gimp, I really need to buy a graphics tablet!
Thanks again!

These look great. A graphic tablet would open up a whole new dimension for you, the cheapest tablet is worth ten mice for this type of work. I have a spare wacom bamboo if you live in the uk.

I once considered the possibility of someday thinking about moving to the UK. Does that count?

Steve, if Stuart doesn't want it I will certainly post it to you

Actually, with the work that Stuart is doing he could probably put it to really good use.
I appreciate the thought, tho
(if you ever have any extra cash you want to get rid of, keep me in mind
)

Thanks for the nice comments and the offer Tadema! I think my wife has a bamboo tablet laying around, I will have to "borrow" it and give it a try!
Couple more quick concepts and then off to practice.
A woody, and a tugboat zeppelin. (tugboat from warehouse.)

Great stuff! Glad to see you continuing this project and series.

Thanks Bryan! I now have a tablet and photoshop! Now I have to practice...
Here is one of my last (maybe) mouse/gimp sketches.

Hi Stuart,
I bought the book and read / viewed on my iPad. I was fascinated with your use of SketchUp for the artwork, well done. I have also posted a 5 star review.

Wow! Thank you so much!
I'm working on the next book and trying to improve the stories and the adventures.
Thanks again, I really appreciate it!

You're welcome Stuart. I'm looking forward to reading the story to my grandson for Christmas. Keep us posted of the development of the next book. I imagine there will be great interest in the graphics here.
-
Thanks again Mike, for the nice comments! I hope your grandson likes it.
I sometimes start with sketchup and kerkythea to get the models right and then photoshop some mood on them.
Others like the golden bridge use a bridge I designed (not gold!) and I try to improve it...
Thanks!
