Vehicles by Jeff Coatney

During a business trip to Hong Kong, I began to marvel at the myriad purpose-built vehicles the Vendors in Kowloon use to get around. I imagined this tea-serving moped as part of a series of small stores and kiosks.

The Columbia tragedy prompted this concept of an Apollo-type capsule, stowable in the Shuttle's cargo bay or attached to the Space Station, that becomes a crew "lifeboat" in the event they cannot return the Orbiter to Earth.

A twenty-first century Charioteer.

Vertical Take-Off and Landing, or VTOL aircraft used in an urban air-assault role could increase the flexibility of combat units to place troops in areas that helicopters cannot go, like between buildings, under bridges, etc.

This is an All-Terrain planetary Explorer concept that I translated into a toy design.

This Astronaut lifeboat concept is more personal, more portable and can be stowed in larger quantities in a confined space because it folds into the size of a steamer trunk.

This junkyard jalopy had to look like it would work as a fan-powered go-cart.

Just another crazy Bolshevik X-Plane spotted at a secret Siberian base.
