OCTOBER MONSTER SKETCH A DAY #20

To commemorate my favorite month (October) and my favorite holiday (Halloween), I'm doing a monster sketch per day.

As scary as clowns were already, Stephen King wrote the book "IT" and made matters worse. Then Tim Curry played IT in the famous TV movie, and pants across the world were simultaneously pooped.

OCTOBER MONSTER SKETCH A DAY #19


To commemorate my favorite month (October) and my favorite holiday (Halloween), I'm doing a monster sketch per day.

I wanted to do a less conventional monster this time, so I chose the Killer Rabbit of Caerbannog, from "Monty Python and the Holy Grail". Never before has blood and gore been so hilarious and adorable.

OCTOBER MONSTER SKETCH A DAY #18

To commemorate my favorite month (October) and my favorite holiday (Halloween), I'm doing a monster sketch per day.

There's no shortage of cool monsters to choose from in Tolkien's mythology, but Gollum is easily my favorite. The gag I drew here was an easy choice. I know I'd bash a few Orc's heads in over a good bag of onion rings.

OCTOBER MONSTER SKETCH A DAY #17

To commemorate my favorite month (October) and my favorite holiday (Halloween), I'm doing a monster sketch per day.

This time I've chosen to draw Jason Voorhees, my favorite horror movie slasher from the "Friday the 13th" series. If Jason looks a bit chunky, it's because I based my design of him on the Shropshire Slasher from the 1956 Looney Tunes cartoon, "Deduce, You Say!", starring Daffy Duck as the dim detective, Dorlock Homes.

OCTOBER MONSTER SKETCH A DAY #16

To commemorate my favorite month (October) and my favorite holiday (Halloween), I'm doing a monster sketch per day.

Today's sketch is of the Russian witch, the Baba Yaga--the scariest witch this side of Margaret Hamilton. Baba Yaga's mythology is filled with the most inspiring iconography--she lives in a house with chicken feet surrounded by an iron spiked fence topped with human skulls (with always one spike left open for YOU), and at night she flies around in a giant mortar and steers it with a pestle.
