For some reason the old post doesn't work anymore (is this a sign of this Word Press Forum being unreliable?) so I am creating this new one.

Small booster. Used for testing the design.

Two stage booster. Hopefully we can get to LEO with something like this.

Here is the heavy lift booster that may take us to the moon.
These are all based on a modular booster (liquid or solid) that can be produced easily and cheaply. I have designed these boosters at 70cm outside diameter.
Here are the Google SketchUP files so that you can work with this if you want.

I will take a look at all of these videos in about a week when I get back to somewhere with a decent internet connection (I'm house sitting for family at the moment somewhere fairly remote, where the internet is slow). I've had a look at one for now – what software are you using to create these videos?

I'm using Google SketchUp. It isn't really made for making mechanical drawings, but it is easy to use and I can quickly make 3D modles to show my ideas.

Ah, now I feel stupid because the answer was in your original post.
I only ask because I was thinking it would be really awesome if the Wiki articles on the command and service modules had nice CGI images of what they'll look like on them, and I noticed whatever you were using seemed capable of churning things out really fast!
I'm sure eventually a proper artist will come along to make proper pictures, but anything would be nice for now.

Well, I'm back in my natural habitat now so I should be able to churn out some fairly generic modles. I don't think SketchUp allows you to render an image so it would just have to be a screenshot (maybe I can turn off the axes).

To be honest, just about anything would be fine for now. We can always replace images with better ones as our ideas solidify and more experienced graphics people come along.
