Adventures in Chat GPT - A Marx Tom Corbett Odyssey

The original photos for this Marx Tom Corbett space car were taken way back in 2009 - a year before I started the blog. In 2012 I took the original .JPEG, cut out the background using Photoshop, and converted the image to a .PNG file. Then, again using Photoshop, the car was transplanted into an ordinary parking lot and that's where it stayed all these years. But I got an itch to see what Chat GPT could do with the image and I entered this edit command: "place this Tom Corbett futuristic car in a futuristic space city". That car now looks at home - Sweeeet!

The fourth pose in Set #83204 / #93204 is the radioman. FOV never made these with the long whip antenna the real gear most likely would have sported. A detail like that would have easily been broken, so if you want it to look a bit more realistic, you'll have to add your own.

The third of five figures in Set #83204 / #93204. I still haven't figured out what that 'package' on the front of their helmets was: cigarettes? first aid kit? Don't know.
