Andy Warhol Camouflage

[zenrat]

I'd forgotten about these until I stumbled across them while goggling camo schemes.
In his later years Andy Warhol produced a number of camouflage based works.  Here are some examples.


I can see some of these painted onto aircraft in my future...

yes yes yes yes !!!! 

note that he is using the classical US army pattern from Viet-Nam era

his colors transform its perception quite stunningly indeed

AFAIK he never really tried a pure red-yellow-blue (with just black and white) version though, which, to my personal taste, is ultimate

You can see some of those as soft furnishing covers from a 60's/70's living room. Had a girlfriend who would have got quite excited over those

Oh yeah, grew up with damask patterned burnt orange flock wallpaper in the dining room. The PTSD is kicking in, shudder.....

I'm thinking that the easiest way to do those patterns would be to print them on decal paper and apply them that way.

What do you see now?

This pattern is called "Rights of Children" and was produced by an Italian fashion house.

In one of his Sci Fi books (possibly "against a dark background" - It's the Non-Culture one with the Lazy Gun anyway) Iain M Banks describes Mercenaries wearing brightly hued camo gear and driving a large assault hovercraft.  In my mind's eye I picture this as an armed SRN4 painted in Warhol camo.
