Trev,

I'll show you what I used to create the backround...

The image below is a screen grab from Mission 3 of the game. (Although I'm on Chapter 5, it's still only mission 3 of the game). I cut out the cargo cannisters and then added the nebula image behind them. I then added a starfield behind that. I used the Colour Balance tool to alter the nebula colour to a more bluish tone and set the layer opacity to about 40% so that you could see the stars through it.

I then added a new layer set to "Screen" and just airbrushed the sun into the image to emulate the original. Finally I added the Falcon, which is one of many images taken of my son's Falcon, that lives in their...(eherm, our), playroom...

Ok, for those of you who never visit the web-comic forum, SHAME ON YOU!!!

If you like Star Wars art, then the image below is just a snippet of one page out of around 30 that will be featuring in the next exciting chapter of X-Wing Alliance...It should be ready by the end of the month, if not sooner...

Here are a couple of images I am particularly pleased with, it's for part 2 of Imperial Horizon, written by Phatty and illustrated by me...
The one with the two Ewoks is a composite using a Ralph Mcquarrie painting. Who needs to build dioramas when you've got Photoshop!!!




And here are some photos that went towards creating the latest chapter...

Hell YES!  I swear, you had a direct line inside my mind, because those are exactly what I had envisioned!  Great works, and I can't wait to see the next chapter all set to go!

I really liked that top photo and the lighting effect is just spectacular. I also like how the writing is integrated around the images, that is a nice effect. You have enough dark edges for me to be able to read. I also like the fact that both the writing and the images are so integrated meaning that both build on eachother and don't overpower one another if that makes any sense.
