    my last set of Universal Monster posters

    i've posted the earier ones from this "series" before, so i thought i'd show off the last set i'll be doing of my retro-new universal movie monsters posters.

    i was never totally happy with my original Dracula one, so i redid Bela and now it looks like this:


    ...there was always one classic monster missing from my series, and it was the Hunchback:


    ...and i decided to end the series the way the monsters did, by metting bud and lou!:



    a "fan" of mine online who writes stuff for dvds apparently sent some links of my work to a company that puts out old sci-fi and horror and serial DVDs, since they commission new dvd sleeve art, so maybe someday i'll get to stuff like this "for real"!

        Fantastic as always Rob! Since Bud & Lou were my first intro to the Universal Monsters, I like that one best too!

        These would really pop off the racks as DVD covers. Universal are you listening?

          The posters all look great. But just as a matter of personal preference I wouldn't use the older Abbott and Costello era Bela for the Dracula poster.
          You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

            Absolutely amazing Rob, but you know I'm a big fan of your work. A&C is cool, but Hunchback is my favorite from the 2 new ones. A real shame tho you won't be doing these anymore

              MONSTERS!!!!

              Those are nifty! Weathered up and matted a bit they'd look a lot like posters from the era, too.

                  looks great ..you need to print them off and sell them on ebay. they are considered " original" artworks so you could sell them very easy as a set. What illustration programs do you use ?

                    unfortunately i can't sell them because i am using the images of Lugosi Dracula, Karloff Frankenstein, etc, owned by Universal. yeah, there are lots of bootleg stuff like that on ebay, but one time i put similar items up and within 24 HOURS ebay shut my auctions down due to complaints from some legal people, so i dont need that kind of trouble.

                    i use photoshop to put them all together, but its not filters or anything--i "draw" it all out digitally.

                    thanks everybody!
