Sad to hear of the passing of Visual Maestro & Concept Designer SYD MEAD. I want to leave in the future he envisioned in his art...
A toast to Syd Mead, legendary futurist and, as far as I can recall, only westerner to do official design work for Gundam. He was even tapped to design for the 1980s live-action film that never came to be.
Rest in peace. You helped shape the look of the future for so many.
Syd Mead was a visionary and one of our main inspirations.
Rest in peace.
Without Syd Mead, no Daft Punks helmets.
He's not too happy about those either:
"Not only is the Daft Punk version poorly proportioned but the ornament is a badly executed variation of Greco-Roman motif. I don't really care at this point."

RIP SYD MEAD
FUTURIST. TITAN. GENIUS.
THE MOST ICONIC DESIGNER OF OUR TIME.
THE MAN WHO DREAMED THE LAND OF TOMORROW.
The legendary Syd Mead passed away today. What a force of inspiration and creativity. His designs and aesthetics are so unique, designing and inspiring so much of what we love today.
R.I.P. Syd Mead. No one has inspired or impacted me career wise more than you and all your work throughout the years. Thank you for everything. Check the link for more Syd inspiration. #sydmead #inspiration #scifiart #artshare #gundam #future #scifi #rip
