Software: Photoshop
Well, this challenge perhaps is my opportunity to honour my favourite actor. So I give it a try. As ‘Jack Dante’ int he movie ‘Deathmachine’
he inspired me to this illustration. Some of his other aliases I mentioned on the poster’s credits. So don’t mess with Brad Dourif!
This is my entry for the B-movie contest, in this case for ‘famine’. I also got some ideas for the other ones:
death - title: RIP
famine - title: KFC
pestilence - title: CR5
war - title: SOS (or POW)
Whatever you think ‘KFC’ might me called, be it ‘Kentucky Fried Chicks’, ‘Kill Feast Cadaver’, ‘Kill Flesh Cult’, ‘Kiss FXXX Carnivore’ or
whatsoever. It’s up to you. To be more precise: The scene of ‘Jack Dante’ and a rubber chicken inspired me to this fast food illustration
(AND I AM A VEGETARIAN FOR ELEVEN YEARS NOW).
Well, this is based on several photographies of Brad Dourif (my initial drawing).
There are only a few actors like him, who are that characteristical. Another one would be Christopher Walken by example, my second
favourite actor. And recently I must admit, Robert Carlyle also got some nice attitude (not only for having acted as ‘Hitler’ or zombie). And
to finish this quartet the last one is Billy Drago. I’d love to see a film with all of them together.
The glass with the brain will be called ‘abnormal’, the hand-thing just ‘thing’.
My hommage to some old movies and series (Mel Brook’s - ‘Frankenstein Junior’ and ‘The Addams Family’).
This would be my soundtrack for this one:
John 5 - Feisty Cadavers
Scott Joplin - The Entertainer
Rob Zombie - What
INXS - Devil Inside
Moonspell - I’ll See You In My Dreams
M.A.N. - Blood Vanish
Slipknot - Spit It Out
Live Of Agony - River Runs Red
Nirvana - Heart Shaped Box
The Fields Of The Nephilim - Last Exit For The Lost
Danzig - Belly Of The Beast
Blue Oyster Cult - Don’t Fear The Reaper
Volbeat - The Human Instrument
:Wumpscut: - Soylent Green
Rammstein - Weisses Fleisch
Louis Armstrong - Wonderful World
Metallica - The Four Horsemen … of course … this would be the song for all four ideas, connecting them, War, Famine, Pestilence, Death
By the way, ‘PocketSatan’ would be a good merchandising article, I guess.
Inspired by ‘Buddy Satan’ of the movie ‘Dogma’ and ‘Polly Pocket’ 
Based on a drawing of mine everything has been constructed and painted within Photoshop without any photomanipulation or
repainting, though photos have been used as reference (especially those of the actor).
Original size: about 70cm x 100cm at 150dpi. Opened as a psd-file about 2.5 GB (yeah, working with many a layer).
Happy Cadaver!
