Lydell End 2050 sketches

So, I’ve failed in getting my arse in gear over this, but have come up with some  ideas which Ru and I sketched out the other day.

This is Ru’s cubist masterpiece:

Very Braquian I thought.

Mine should be considered more of a technical illustration, coming up with a plan of attack sort of thing. Okay, so I’ll admit, hers is better than mine:

The idea behind it is, if you have friends or family staying over, you flick a switch and another storey sort of concertinas it’s way out of the roof space.

It was partly inspired by a cartoon I saw years ago, probably by Tex Avery, that described life in the future. One of the gadgets was an instant house that came the size of a matchbox, to which you just added water and pop!

Update: The cartoons were by Tex Avery and they were a series of shorts he did called “…of Tomorrow”.

Updated update: actually try here and you don’t even have to add water.
