Frazetta Velma

Description

The other day a friend named LondonJohnIII hit me with a question; if I was to do Velma Dinkley as done by another artist, who would it be? I thought about it, and told him, "Frank Frazetta, as I've done several of those lately." I needed a more dramatic fantasy pose for her than we usually see on the show. My other friend, Kaspired, jumped in as well and made this really great Vaughn Bode version, and he put some work into it www.deviantart.com/art/Yined-a… .

     I just wanted to say something about Frank Frazetta. I pulled my books out for this project, and for years I've taken for granted how amazing this artist is. If you're not familiar with him, you need to be. Whether it's oil paint, pencil sketch, pastel or pen and ink, the guy really mastered it all. And while you're at it, you need to check out Vaughn Bode if you never have. This is just play time for me; I'm nowhere near the quality of these guys. My thanks again to LondonJohnIII for inspiring this idea, and thanks again for Kaspired jumping in with it.

Here was the original sketch gulliver63.tumblr.com/image/12…

Velma Dinkley is the property of Hanna-Barbera.

I love this 'Jungle Velma'/'Savage Land' Velma concept to bits; spectacular work, Gulliver63.
