The Silver Surfer one is very akin to the Metropolis poster.
great images, thanks for sharing
Are these available for sale anywhere. They’re freaking awesome!
I’m pretty sure he’s taken old art deco posters and re-imagined them with superheroes. I’ve seen most of the original images, but I couldn’t tell you EXACTLY what they wre from. For example, that first Iron Man reminds me of a ship… maybe Titanic, maybe some other ship, I have no idea but I’ve seen it before.
brilliant pics, thanks for sharing, good combination between super hero world and the art, well done!
I love the clean lines and subtle curves of art deco! There are art deco influences in my metal art. You can check it out at http://www.etsy.com/shop/jtbmetaldesigns .
