Here are some of my miniature designs from my Amazon storybook release..."SEASTAR 5 INVADERS FROM THE ABYSS" ....
These images show a "LEMURIAN BLUE VIMANA SCOUT SUBCRAFT" from the Tyrannian Undersea Empire....this features in the first book of the series release of my undersea adventure storybooks...
This first book "Strange Encounter" has been created using a process photography system called "supermation retroart images", which consists of model animation techniques used to create still picture images for an animation style presentation in book formats .
The model miniature 1/6 scale , around four feet in length , made of fibreglass moulding material contains a full lighting system and these images feature it on a six foot square model landscape set at my studio in Lancashire .
Hope you enjoy these latest images from my studio .

ReplyDeleteLovely retro-influences miniatures work! SFZ
ReplyDeleteWow. That looks full-size. Excellent work.
ReplyDeleteYou mean, I can't drive one home today?
ReplyDeleteLovely sub work and scenery Richard. Proper prop creation like in the Anderson era.
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone for your comments....appreciate the comparison with the Great Gerry Anderson Era of model works....the Blue Vimana craft at around four feet in length is certainly a nice miniature to see in pictures and up close.....it took around a week to construct , including its lighting system...the model could carry two crew - size wise action man dolls could be fitted in tandem in the cockpit really well....the hatch cover can be closed as well . This particular model gets into a fight sequence with an Imperial Battle Cruiser of the Lemurian undersea Empire in my third book in the sci-fi saga series which has just been published on Amazon Kindle as a download....the third part of the story with this particular battle sequence comes out in January 2024....will post some images in due course nearer the time on this site .....SEASTAR 5 THE COMIC version of my sci-fi story is currently coming together and will be published hopefully before the end of the year as a soft back book style release....Richard Dixon TPD STUDIOS UK .
