"...if you don't know what that means," said the blog "click the tag where it says "Eat Me" in small friendly letters at the bottom of this post. You will be delighted to find it tells you everything you need to know."
I really like that Ian Miller cover illustration of Total Chess, it was first thing that sprang to my mind when I read about god chess on Vornheim sourcebook and some time ago I did blog post "12 things to nick out of Vornheim" using it.
I have to see it some day. Could use that pic, propably as some important person because important people wear big hats (for example amirals, sultans, popes)
Several pics from Jan Svankmajer's Alice. Excellent film! Here's hoping you incorporate the stuffed White Rabbit that's constantly restuffing himself with sawdust.
For some reason the illustration by Tennial that always creeped me out was the one where Alice is growing. Holding a key? maybe Something about the stretched out neck and the expression on her face was disturbing.
Okay, don't know wether or not a cat will actually eat a bat,but I do know from personal experience that a female cat that has recently given birth will kill the fuck out of any bat it sees(wonder if they think/see a bird of prey when doing so).
I second the request for a stuffed rabit. That movie was pure gold. I was wading through your excellent 'image notebook' till i got to Mandy. BEST PIC EVER. Cough, cough, anyway, nice work so far with all your choices :)
Do cats eat bats? Do bats eat cats?

DeleteThey both produce a few notes, all very flat, and are almost never turned the wrong way front.
ReplyDeleteCool visual inspirations. Good luck with the project!
ReplyDeleteVery cool. Is the one of the goat vomiting on (eating?) the legless body by you?
ReplyDeleteNope, the third from the bottom is mine, but the goat's by the incredible Justin Bartlett http://www.vberkvlt.com/pages/selected_pieces
DeleteThanks for the link, can't get enough evil goatmen!
DeleteDoes anyone know where the Victorian (?) photograph (the one with the cat-person) is from? What it depicts?
ReplyDeleteSadie Frost walking down the steps into the crypt with the baby in her arms - still gives me the creeps.
ReplyDelete"Oh Jonathan, come to me my love..."

DeleteIf you haven't seen Atom Egoyan's "Where the Truth Lies", there's an interesting dream/sex scene with Alice and Jefferson Airplane's "White Rabbit"...
ReplyDeleteOh man, I had THE biggest crush on Lucy from that film!
