Original “Evil Ed” style movie poster painting for Fright Night (1985).

Created for the Orlando Horror Movie Poster Art Show this past October 2012, I am ready to sell this sucker (no pun intended) to a good horror home for the holidays. Go to my Etsy shop to purchase this one of a kind piece.

Painted in acrylic on stretched 18” x 24” canvas, gessoed and coated with a clear gel medium. Comes ready to hang peeeple!!! Ho ho hooo!

Colin Farrell is…yummy.

And the new Jerry Dandridge in Fright Night 2011.

He is one of the best things about the remake.

Sexy shark vampire.

Wacom into Photoshop.

This ends Fright Night week here at IBTrav Illos.

Charley Brewster, unfortunate neighbor to a vampire.

The art homages to Fright Night (1985) continue with this illustration of Charley Brewster (William Ragsdale) going batshit crazy trying to arm himself for a vampire attack from neighbor Jerry Dandridge.

Traditional media meets digital: Prismacolor marker on Bristol vellum with colored pencil, scanned into Photoshop and touched up via Wacom.

The one and ONLY Peter Vincent (Roddy McDowall) from 1985’s Fright Night.

Accept no substitutes people. I’ve seen the new Fright Night and that Dr Who dude is no Roddy McDowall.

After many months of being inspired by other artists and designers like Phantom City Creative and Justin Erickson, I decided to take a stab at making movie posters.

Here’s my first entry for one of my fave films: the original Child’s Play.

Done straight in Photoshop, this is a departure from my usual style but I think it fits the poster well.
