The time frame is too close together, I think, for that ship to really be a knockoff of the BG.<br /><br />The presentation of the Egyptian/Arabic one actually makes it look like the top window of a pinball machine, complete with two 'score windows' in red.<br /><br />On the one above that, where the two humans are emerging from a flower, it almost suggests that this is a French sf/art film.<br /><br />On the French poster, the girl seems to be evoking the image of Barbarella as well as Flash Gordon, Buck Rogers, and Commander Cody--she looks like she should be wearing a jet pack.<br /><br />The other one with the comet streak/fireball is a great use of color and design, and the text doesn't stand out as a distraction. <br /><br />These are great!<br /><br />Gordon LongPDXWizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10884427889989897626noreply@blogger.com
