Out of stock.
The famously dark, hypnotic stare of "Karloff
the Uncanny" as Ardeth Bey is captured in remarkably lifelike form in
this life-size sculpture, the first life-size bust in a series of
Classic Monsters 1:1 scale busts.
The gaunt visage of screen legend
Boris Karloff almost appears to take breath again as sculpted by artist
Mike Hill.
This Ardeth Bey bust features a felt flocked fez, complete
with tassel, and expertly tailored clothing with front tie closure.
The
bust is mounted on a colorful base sculpted by the Gore Group, recalling
the spirit of the original movie poster.
Created in "living color" from
the original black and white film, the movie make-up techniques, colors
and products used in the 1932 make-up design by Jack Pierce and Karloff
were all thoroughly researched and taken into careful consideration in
the sculpt, paint scheme and texturing of Ardeth Bey's leathery,
parchment-like skin, to achieve the highest level of authenticity.
