I used to love water transfers when I was a nipper.
It was great fun transfering them onto stuff like my arm and my school books!
Here's a neat vintage set I saw on the Bay this year.
I particularly like the tracked moon vehicle just above JFK.
It reminds me of several things at once: the Project SWORD Snow Train and Beetle and the Zero-X MEV.
Those blister cockpits do it for me though. More well-known blisters like these featured on Dan Dare's Anastasia.
But the most similar vehicle I can think of is the Grippity Gravity Transport complete with split windscreen windows.
Here's a very similar vehicle on this old Japanese jigsaw puzzle too.
Does anyone know any more about these split windscreen space vehicles?
Not much to add, but I wonder if those transfers were re-using images form stamps, possibly including Russian ones?
ReplyDeleteYep, see what you mean Andy. Despite JFK being on one I can see how some of the machinery might be of Soviet origin. I wonder of their were space-age comics in the USSR like a russian TV21?
