This is fantastic!
This is pritty much how I pictured Herbert West when I read Lovecrafts short story, and yes, lovecraft DID describe him as being slender, blonde haired, blue-eyed, with youthful, delicate features.
I love the way you've drawn his cold hard eyes, and his palid emotionless features, and the way in which the dead bodies from his experiments are piled beneath his feet, as if he is some kind of vengeful god.
A very powerful and chilling image, thankyou for sharing it with us.

Thank you so much for the time you have reserved to comment so generously on my work.
Yes the descriptiveness of the character is dominant throughout the series of chapters... I presume he wanted to make sure that readers would not miss out on the basics if they had not read the previous issue.
None the less as I read through it this was pretty much the image that I developed in my head in regards to the descriptions.
This is the only image that I actually needed reference images in making the bodies laying ontop of each other. The original piece is almost 2 meters high so the reanimator appears about life size. İn standing in front of it you do not directly see the bodies but more sense their existence.
Thank you SO much for your kind words!

I like how the sterile atmosphere coincides with the Doctor himself and then gives way to what at first glance appears to be an outpouring of lust, closer, and you realize they're all either dead or in agony.
Off to library I go, haven't read this story yet...
