THE WAR OF THE WORLDS

What if Michael J. Dowswell illustrated H.G.Well's War of the Worlds? I do love War of the Worlds, I don't think my wife does but anyway...my dad and I always loved this story, it is quite dark though. They say its the first alien invasion story, I don't know if that is true or not, but yeah...alien invasion stories have always been interesting to me...I spose its just mens fascination with war and the history of war.

REDDIT

Reddit is a fascinating and bizarre place...not for the faint hearted...you will also require 1. A ton of patience if you want to be a video poster on there 2. you will also have to be quite thick skinned...they are going to say some pretty unpleasant and honest things about your video.

BLINK OF AN EYE | Crashing Star Wars Ships #03





I don't want to start off on a downer with this...because this is fun stuff...it's a lot of fun crashing these models. Its very unpredictable what will happen, for example, you might have noticed at seventeen seconds in there is a fly that I didn't even know was there, and looks like it may have died. Here's the thing, the set in this video is quite old now, I've done a lot more work on it and we are looking at a far more detailed look that you will see in upcoming videos. Its going to be very special and I thank you for taking the time to have a look at it.

Crashing Star Wars Ships #02





It's starting to look a lot better, I was beginning to wonder if it ever would...but, I'm happy with how I got the sky and land to match.

I don't know what the guys will think about this...they have not said anything yet. Its not really in keeping with the style of their show...but I enjoyed making it and maybe it will just become a bit of fan art for them. I have skills in art....I am competent...I know what I'm doing and it feels good to be good at something. I was away from all things art for two years being (a lot of the time) incompetent in a job that brought cash in.
