Nice Work update! Plus: Covered Re-Run: Gotta Love the Ploog!

and..as if that weren’t enough–more for your viewing pleasure:
Friday Frankenstein (on Wednesday!) Ploog! Frankenstein! Yeah!
So..I admit it. I’ve done a lot of Ploog!(How many times do you hear that in rehab?) There will be at least one more of these, so I hope you like Mike Ploog–and Monster of Frankenstein as much as I do.
And of all the Ploogs I’ve done, this and the one that kicked off this month-long blogging bonanza, were my favorites to do. This one in particular because of the drama of the sea, the boat in flames, and that elliptical space of Ploog’s that I mentioned in the last one. That space is really apparent in this image–and it works wonderfully with the rollicking, burning boat being tossed upon the ocean waves.
Oh-and the beautiful girl tied to the mast didn’t hurt.





Cool beans! I just picked up Twomorrows Modern Masters book featuring Mike Ploog. It has a couple cool cover re-creations (in pencil) by Ploog himself.
