Rockets and Mad Doctors

Here's the final version of one of my illustrations for "Trapped in the Tower of the Brain Thieves": the first of my illustrated, interactive stories at Thrilling Tales of the Downright Unusual.

Nat and Gwen are approaching the Tower of Doctor Rognvald in Nat's Auburn racer. The Tower is a Precariously Situated Research and Development Installation, Second Class, Type C - which I think is obvious from its picture. Type C installations are always found in dangerous locations but they're not licensed for defensive (or offensive) machinery. Doctor Rognvald is a cheater.

But that's not clear yet, of course, so our heroes feel pretty comfortable about landing their rocket at what they think is a safe distance.

This version of the illustration is based on the one at the web site, and in the book, but has been re-rendered and overpainted in a much higher resolution even than the book's version: 300 pixels to the inch, at 18 by 24 inches.

Retro Sci Fi Art Prints

These prints are printed with an archival quality photographic process on Fuji Crystal Archive paper. Like any prints, they shouldn't be exposed to direct sunlight: but unlike less expensive prints these are rated to last over 100 years without fading.

You can order a print in either glossy, matte, or lustre finish. This is mainly a matter of personal taste.

Because these prints are made for you by a separate vendor, you can't combine a prints order with any other merchandise, and the prints will ship separately from any other items.

Posters of these pictures are also available.
