I know you said it is for a children book... and with fantasy everything is possible... but have you e.g. thought of it if should work in reallife...

e.g. how to keep the hot air in the balloon when it travel throu the vacuum of the universe...

I don't know if is would look stupid but how about some thing of almost invincible/transparent protection shield around it?

regards

Thanks Mike! Hows your CGTalk challenge going? Have you had time to start modeling yet? I loved your concept.

here is another update- map stand added, sand bags and Landing gear thingy too. took me while to figure out how to adjust the Nurbs tessalation... me am not too bright. I should have just looked in the manual.... but nnnnoooo... I had to try all the options. duh.
