Project Review: The Phantom 2040: PART XXX

This probe sampled dirt for the "Ghostwood" plant and it's unique properties.


The Phantom had lots of little gadgets including a small coin sized lite.


A small video-phone[ 1994 future!]

A "smart" shotgun shell that would follow you with a mini jet engine in it!


A tablet and stylus for a nurse scene in the series.

Phantom 2040-PART XXX
Prop Design Sketches

Client: Hearst Animation Productions.
Art Director: Myself.
Project Date Spring 1993.

In this 30th post on the Phantom 2040 TV Animation series I worked on in the early 90's , here I have posted the sketches for a few of the hand held props I did for the various shows.

It is always interesting to look at "future" designs after the fact to see how we looked at the future of design, and what actually happened. These were designed in 1994-6 and 15 years later to review the designs is fascinating as technology with hand held phones has gone so far.

Cheers, THOM
