Awww Thank you Skysoul! Yes, I'm still around although I haven't been painting for a while. I promise I'll get back to it soon as I can get some free time.

AWWW MAN!! Ploog was the concept artist for Bakshi's Wizards! I KNEW I recognized that name. That fairy Elinore shot a nerdy little pre-teen (me) straight into puberty and all the way out the other side! Thanks for the trip down mammary... errr... memory lane!

THEY KILLED FRITZ!!!!. Love the movie (have it on video) & Bakshi, especially the movie he did with Frank Frazetta,"Fire & Ice". The 1st time I saw Wizards was in 1978,a hard movie to get a hold of here in Australia. I've tried to order it in from the U.S., but they keep telling me it's deleted!

The only problem I had with Wizards and several other Bakshi movies was the stupid Roto-scoping thing he did with old movie footage in place of real animation. I'm sure it was a lot cheaper but you get what you pay for lol.

Other than THEY KILLED FRITZ, the best line of the movie was Oh, one more thing. I'm glad you changed your last name, you son of a bitch!

The other line (as well as that one from Avatar to his brother) I liked was when the 2 soldiers are wondering what to do with the prisoners(pow's), & try to find those wacky priests,"Why do we need religeon?", the other guy says "I don't know, I guess you need God on your side, stupi!".
I totally agree with the cheap animation, he did the same thing with his animated version of Lord of the Rings!

I remember it well. I so looked forward to that movie and was so disappointed when it came out. 90 minute or so movie, and he tried to take the story at least halfway through The Two towers. It's no wonder he never did the second half. I much preferred the Rankin/Bass tv follow up anyway, so at least some good came out of it.

For myself (who was 10 at the time..), I could'nt agree more. The 1st part of the movie was great, until they left Rivendell. As you said, where was the rest of the story?. My father read it to us as kids, & when thet previewed the movie in New Zealand, we were so excited. In the end, much more content reading the book again!

Man, I'd love to visit New Zealand someday (speaking of LotR movies). I'd so love to see some of the locations where they filmed the GOOD version of LotR!

The great thing about NZ Bro is that it does'nt take long to get around. For eg where they filmed Hobbiton is just outside of Wellington(NZ CAPITAL), & where they filmed the Rohan & Helms Deep scenes, is only about 3 hours sth in the South Island. Not like here in Australia, everything is bloody miles away!

Sorry it took me so long to respond lol. I crashed hard right after my last post last night and then I got up and got busy with the sculpting of the rest of Hellboy. I'd say I'm about 3/4 of the way through the sculpting process, and then the painting and comp work in PS should go pretty quick. THEN I have to go back and fix all the stuff I messed up/forgot to do lol.

Anyway, as I said I'd love to see New Zealand and Australia both one day. I know the scenery is probably quite a bit different than it appears in the movies (no giant tree cities, no Helm's Deep etc) but I love that kind of scenery anyway.

Been used in alot of flicks of late, very vast for a country that looks so small. The best thing I ever saw was in Queenstown(sth island), where a massive glacier meets head on with a rain forest!.
Hope you get everything sorted out, & watch out for those crashes,lol. Don't know how many times I've done that!
BTW, Love the new ID!

I'm sure I've heard of Mike before but I can't place him. Had a hectic day so I haven't had time to google him yet but I will in a bit. And yeah, isn't Wrightson's work intense? I collected about 20 prints by him back in my teens and wish to god I could find them again. Internet copies just don't do him justice. Especially the intricate detailing on his Frankenstein work. Those are just the most amazing ink drawings I've ever seen. I spent hours just studying each one and always finding something new.

He used to do Werewolf by Night from 74-78 I think. That's where I got my concept from![link]
