Hammer Wrap

Torn from the tomb to terrify the world, half bone, half bandage - MUMMIES!

I'd never drawn a mummy before, but I've popped that cherry 3 times... kinda glorified zombies with better table manners.

...and the glossy pouting glam among the dust and blood, the amazonic Valerie Leon.

Splendid films, splendid mag - Dick Klemensen's Little Shoppe of Horrors #24, on sale now.

  2. A fun ish to work on-i love drawing mummies as they're all organic and rotting and gritty-no revelation of inner psychological workings there,eh?

    ...;o)
