WANTED! More Readers Like... WILLIAM PUGMIRE!

Hey all,
I picked up the new issue of Scary Monsters last night, (Click the cover to order it from Creepy Classics) (Unfortunately I'm not in the new issue, I was supposed to do portrait of Zacherley, but I just plain ran out of time and missed the DEADline...) and while reading the letters section I found this from William Pugmire in Seattle WA.

"I appreciated Tom Triman's superb article on FRANKENSTEIN. Most of the photos were familiar, but I had a shock when I turned to page 97— I thought at first that Robert Scott's outstanding illustration was a photograph! It is magnificent, and I wish that you had reproduced it in color as your back cover. I'm going to hunt for Mr. Scott's website, where hopefully I can see the painting in color. Please let him do a cover at some future date!"

William, Thanks for your feedback; at first I was sure that my Mom must have written in! I hope you found your way here.
Unfortunately due to a slight color blindness I tend tend to do all of my work in Glorious Black and White, but, since you requested it I took the time to colorize the portrait. I hope you enjoy it!

Take care,

Rob



And be sure to stop by tomorrow for a brand new portrait!

I've finally found you! I'm very computer clueless, so it takes me a while. Your art is magnificent and I am anxious to view more of it here at your blog. I'm not too devoted top the online world, as I'm a full-time Cthulhu Mythos writer and always have a new book deadline to meet. Mostly I check in at Facebook, and I do a lot of weird horror vlogs on my YouTube channel. Cheers!
