CURTIS COUNTERCOMMANDMENT

Another Curtis cover.

Not sure what they've used to get that cover image. You?

  1. Its hard to say from the image, as its pretty low-res. But I would say its a painting.

  2. Probably painted from life using a combination of small model or some pieces of machinery and a background image of something reflected in a concave lens.

    3. I've added a better picture. The contraption looks like a gauge of some sort maybe?

  4. Looks like a small plaster model mountain, next to a Rolex watch body with a clear plastic hemisphere on top and sand sprinkled round the bottom, in front of a painting of a 'swirl' to me.
    Mish.

    1. I think your'e getting somewhere with that Mish. Curtis often used Action Man/ GI Joe in their covers so it makes sense that they'd grab a few items and photograph them as well.
