More New Stuff!

As i mentioned in the blog about Shane's artwork we're doing some pieces for Dick Klemensen's LSOH mag-a tribute to Hammer's CURSE OF FRANKENSTEIN.

The 1st scan here is of some of the various "1st thoughts" i jotted down while thinking about the subject-in this case the aforementioned COF film,a pic of actor Shane Briant and something on director Peter Sasdy's work.

i eventually dropped the Sasdy piece (which i was gonna do as a montage-see last scan in this entry) as overkill (there will be so much art in the ish by other cool artists,my 4 were perhaps too much already ;o)





I'm sure after seeing part of the sketches i did on Sasdy's COUNTESS DRACULA some of you may be disappointed tho-lol

Well the next series of pix are the two major steps of each of the final four i chose to do.

First we have Baron Frankenstein preparing to restore life to the creature he made...







Then a pic of actor Shane Briant as a young medical fan of the infamous Baron from FRANKENSTEIN AND THE MONSTER FROM HELL...








Here is a portrait of the late Hazel Court as Elizabeth, fiancee to the Baron from COF...








Then the Baron has a close encounter with his newborn creature that nearly cuts his monster making career short...







Lastly is the Sasdy montage i spoke of- i got as far as the pencils before i decided to shelve it for another day- the subjects were TASTE THE BLOOD OF DRACULA, HAND OF THE RIPPER, COUNTESS DRACULA and DOOMWATCH...



Until next we chat...That's All, Vokes!
