I wanted to post some more of my non-comics work. Here’s a print I did based on the film Re-Animator. I was already a fan of the film when I got to draw the official comic book adaptation for it back in the day. When I heard that the two stars of the film (Jeffrey Combs and Bruce Abbott) were coming to a local convention I thought the time was right to revisit the property and you can see the results here. I was really happy with how this turned out. Herbert West, the central character of the film,  is most prominent with a ready syringe of his re-animating “re-agent.” The other main characters of the film surround him in a nightmarish montage in green: Dan Cain, Megan Halsey, Dr. Carl Hill and the much-suffering Dean Halsey. Oh, and Rufus. The cat. Also much-suffering.

I gave both actors a copy when I met them and got them to both sign my personal copy which now hangs on my wall. If only Barbara Crampton had been there so I could  have gotten her signature, too!

An 11×17 print of this piece (without the URL watermark) is available at my Etsy store.

Almost October… https://blog.christopherjonesart.com/almost-october/ https://blog.christopherjonesart.com/almost-october/#respond Tue, 27 Sep 2011 04:10:07 +0000 http://blog.christopherjonesart.com/?p=285 I love October. My birthday is in October, and I like to consider the whole month a lead-up to Halloween, my favorite holiday. I even love the weather. If only it weren’t tainted by the knowledge that winter is coming…
