Aliens

Larry Knox was commissioned to produce a cover for a reprint of HG Wells's War of the Worlds, on the cheap. So he headed to a Chinatown fish-market, bought some squid, and faked it! Link

Its pretty cool how you can fake so much for the camera, and still have it look so good. Reminds me of SFX for 50's sci-fi movies. While he had the squid fresh, he actually posed it as a 50's alien, complete with oversized brain!

Its great to have my creative mind and juices flowing again, especially after the dark storm of late last year... it's really amazing what a change in scenery can do for a person :)
