I Was Working in the Lab Late One Night...

I was a bit late delivering this commission, so I decided to do a bit extra for the client. The brief asked for an A4 pic of Frankenstein (that *is* his name!) with maybe something a bit World War II-y thrown in. The only way I could make that work well is to come up with a mini-narrative, which meant going up a size as well (11x17).

Pencils!


Inks!

And it looks pretty nice, I think. Hand-lettering FTW!

Wow.
That's a beautiful page, Dan - The inking is AWESOME, the composition works perfectly and the monster looks so ominous

Best,
J.

To quote Gary Glitter: Didn't know I wanted to see you draw Frankenstein's Monster versus Nazis until I did.

Fantastic Dan please tell me there's more.

Dan McDaid said...

Man, I wish there was!

Just to let you know Gary's seen it now and he thinks it's great! Thanks again for doing it.

To also quote Gary Glitter, "mmmm kids."

But on another note, that's some funking lovely stuff there sir.

I vote we get a McDaid Indiana Jones comic tout suite!

I really like seeing your pencils ( and how much you leave to draw in ink). This reminds me of an old Marvel horror mag strip - it's bloody wonderful!
