I make movies. I watch movies. I love movies.
Pinned
Where do I even begin? Guillermo del Toro @realgdt.bsky.social has created an absolute masterpiece. I only wish I’d had the chance to experience it on the big screen. The story of Frankenstein has been told countless times, but never like this.
FRANKENSTEIN is on NETFLIX but- still in many theatres- please consult your local listings and choose your watch/rewatch preference!

Happy Anniversary to #TheBrideOfFrankenstein! I wanted to do something special for her, and the opportunity to combine it with some #FrankensteinGDT fan art was irresistible. So here is #MiaGoth as #ElizabethHarlander, as well a spooky take. @realgdt.bsky.social

The Frozen Horse’s Tale~ concept designs for @realgdt.bsky.social amazing FRANKENSTEIN! In 2022 I started work with Guillermo on keyframes and concepts before production started, including the battlefield frozen horse. Later during production I designed it to be built life size as a prop for filming

I had so much fun writing this piece on culture as a Frankenstein creature itself.

This was a wonderful challenge in both colours and lighting! I'm overall pretty happy with how it turned out. The frame is being made right now so I'll upload a better quality photo of that and the painting once it's complete

Along with the coffins I worked on the design for the family grave and its sculpted details, the shape of the gravestone would also hint to Victors water tower lab in silhouette with the “sphinx” feet motif too.

It was lovely to see homage to the Hunterian Museum’s Evelyn Tables in @realgdt.bsky.social Frankenstein. These four tables were made in Padua, taking arteries, veins and nerves dissected in Padua’s famous anatomical theatre, pasting them to boards and varnishing them to protect and preserve
