Quicksand!

[MattMcK.]

A scene from the finale of 1944s House of Frankenstein. The Monster drags the wounded Dr. Neiman into a darkened swamp as enraged villagers (what other kind are there?) burn the brush and trees behind them... Neiman warns him of the danger, gasping, "No, not that way! Quicksand! Quicksand!" Alas, it's too late for the befuddled creature, and they sink into the muck...

Two big 1/4 scale busts by Jeff Yagher, cast by Paul Gill at Gillman Productions. Airbrush & brush with Scalecolor acrylics, inks, and their new 'drop and paint' airbrush paint line. I tried the osl using inks to represent moonlight and the glow of fire behind them. It's actually a little more blue in person, so not a total success, but learning with each project.
