its official poster just screams post-apoc 80s. artist: gary pullin

less well known was that the artist ahem, borrowed, pretty damned blatantly from angus mckee's cover art (1976). with a budget this low, i guess you get what you pay for.

@vga256 Good grief, they really did just copy that cover point by point.
@ThreeOhFour 😆that's working under a deadline
@vga256 Or when you hand in 7 original sketches and then they go “Look just make it exactly like this other thing I like, please” :’D
