    Count Frightenstein

    Happy Halloween.

    The season has inspired me to create not one but two new characters this month.

    Let's start with this guy, growing up in the outskirts of Toronto meant i got to see an awful lot of Hilarious House of Frightenstein. If Vincent Price wasn't enough, Billy Van was a comedic genius and his many characters made an impact on me.



    None more than the count, so I hired sculptor Joe Hope and he nailed it. Head paints by yours truly. I still need to figure out his medallian but other wise, I'm thrilled.





    Thanks for looking! Happy Halloween!

            Nice one man! Can we expect a limited run of this guy in the future, so my Igor won't be alone?

                  Beautiful work. Really takes me back to my childhood!
                  Hope the medallion works out: The following are the clearest screen grabs I could fine; maybe they can be adapted, sized, printed off and cut out for your Count :-)
