ProfessionalWhy did you make this work:
There are illustrations to the book about the longest railway in the world - Transsiberian railway - and cities along it. It is more than 9000 km and 7 timezones! There are a lot of cities - small and huge, with scyscrapers and small wood houses, with millions of people and with thousands. Near Vladivostok live tigers and there are a ocean - and in Slyudyanka people ice skying on the Baykal lake!
How was the illustration used: in a children book
How did you make this work: The idea of the book was mine - and I found an author for it. There was a big research - we were looking for people in all this cities who could tell us about there hometowns. I used mix technique: first draw the contour by hand and then finished it and colored in Photoshop.
