Stylish pop art inspired by the original Thunderbirds episodes from 1965 & 66

Ubergeek engineer Brains and the Tracy brothers may be all-American but Britishness is elegantly represented from Creighton-Ward Manor and FAB 1, the pink Rolls-Royce, thanks to London Agent Lady Penelope, along with her loyal and ’umorous butler Aloysius Parker.

Even though the original series ended in 1966, since then repeated airings have helped each generation to discover Thunderbirds and come to love the daring missions of International Rescue.

It’s a cherished part of all our childhoods and rightly so. With ingenious filming techniques, great characters, and thrilling adventures, Thunderbirds was innovative at the time and still charms to this day.

An official collaboration with ITV Studios Global Entertainment, Art & Hue had the pleasure of delving into the archives to uncover original photographs of Thunderbirds, which were given the stylish pop art treatment featuring Art & Hue’s signature halftone style (halftone is an age-old technique that uses dots to make up the printed image, similar to newspapers or comic books).
