Frankenbruary continues. Day 6 - Karloff and legendary make-up artist Jack Pierce. You rarely see a picture with Pierce smiling. He’s always so INTENSE. 😠 Love the heavy duty hair dryer. #Frankenbruary #JackPierce #BorisKarloff #Frankenstein #UniversalMonsters

Lon Chaney: The Wolf Man (1941) #HandDrawn 12 Days

#UniversalMonsters has such a rich cast of characters, I could spend years drawing one #film series.

The lapse dissolve transformation took #JackPierce around 21 hours to create.

Boris Karloff was drawn over 13 days in pencil by hand.

There was a progression of make up with #JackPierce on #Frankenstein, judging by the scars, this is from #BrideofFrankenstein The costume weighed 48lb the make up took 4 hours

Boris Karloff #Imhotep #HandDrawn in #Pencil over 14 days

"He went for a little walk."

By drawing #BorisKarloff as #TheMummy you really get to know how incredible #JackPierce was.
This took him 8 hours a day to apply for 12 seconds on film.

Everyone is talking about the monster, but can we talk about how awesome Jack Pierce looks?

Absolute fashion model!

The new #PencilArt of #Kharis. This is the #LonChaney version, not Tom Tyler's Kharis in The Mummy's Hand. Always liked this shot in the film.
There's going to be a 3D aspect to the original.

Today we celebrate the birthday of Jack Pierce, born today in 1889. Pierce was a Hollywood make-up artist best remembered for creating the iconic makeup worn by Boris Karloff in Frankenstein, along with various other classic monster make-ups for Universal Studios. #JackPierce

Legendary makeup artist #JackPierce transforms #BorisKarloff into Imhotep for 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘔𝘶𝘮𝘮𝘺 (Universal Pictures, 1932)

Interesting reading on Pierce’s career and legacy (including some great photos) from 𝘈𝘮𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘊𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘮𝘢𝘵𝘰𝘨𝘳𝘢𝘱𝘩𝘦𝘳’s Frank Taylor (1985):

It also had one glaring mistake in it. #LonChaney (Sr) didn't design and apply the makeup from The Man Who Laughs. #JackPierce did. Guys! get it right!
