Another stills set for Renault. This whole set was built in perspective with the background station being entirely painted on the cyclorama by Steve Mitchel in just three days.

Here a snow scene, again mostly painted by the artist Howard Weaver. The foreground foot prints were built in polystyrene and covered with salt.

My passion has always been enjoying racing any kind of sailboat. Years ago I was competing for the Olympic team but work took over. Now, my dream would be to race in a sleek 40 footer, but the Laser will just have to do for now.

The brief here was to build a rain forest in a Battersea studio for Rover cars. All the top branches were hung in first, with the big plants dressed in underneath. A scenic gauze is used to create light rays through the trees.
