JB, seeing your tweaking of the strato-jet image put me in the mind of this, one of my favorite of your renderings of it in the last panel. Just a gorgeous take-off shot. Was this too in the pre-modeling days?

Was it ever!To expand: when I started using models I promised myself it would be strictly for maintaining scale, details and proportions. I wouldn't model anything I couldn't simply draw. With the exception of some special effects in NEW VISIONS, so far I've been able to stick to this.

JB: With the wingtips visible. (Am I certifiable to be doing all this for a book that doesn't really exist??)

I know precisely what you mean. I co-created a card game in 1995. It was nationally distributed and made some good money, but my involvement ended in 1996 when I got fired from the studio producing it... and the game guttered out within a year.
Fast forward to 2017: I got emailed from a guy who loves the game, made a website for it, and wanted to interview me. Since then, we've become friends and I've written probably as much material to expand and improve the game as I did when I originally co-designed the thing. It will probably not go anywhere, except to gamers who like the card game, but it's been very satisfying.
