ultraman hayata...

These images are amazing. There of a character from japanese television in the 60's called Ultraman. The combination of text, illustration and photos is something that I would like to explore in my work.




I particularly like the cut-through section showing what lies within Ultraman's body/vehicle etc.
And the general look and feel of the paper that these are printed on is quite unique. very fibrous. looks like old comics etc. i am also very interested in japanese cinema and animation.
so perhaps it would be good to take my photography in that direction. Especially when i'm in need for a theme or concept.
