It had been decided to run a sports-simulation feature in May's issue for some time, so a topic for the cover wasn't in question, but Oliver's problem was how to portray the subject without using the trite picture-montage method. In the event, he turned the idea on its head, creating this startling montaged footballer, his body entirely made up of recognisable sporting equipment, booting a spaceship towards the onlooker. Perhaps what's most remarkable is that the picture was painted in only three to four hours while Oliver fitted in his new commitment to ZZAP!. |
