Artist's Comments

I recently found out that Daniel Emilfork died a few months ago, last October. Sad, really . . .

Even though he wasn't all that well-known outside of non-English speaking Europe, Mr. Emilfork had a distinctive face and accent that made him an ideal typecast for villians. Seriously, there is no mistaking this guy. He was (and is) genuinely creepy and terrifying. I bloody love him.

Cite Des Enfants Perdus (City of Lost Children) is one of my very favourite films, so I've painted him as he appears in the role of Krank, a mad scientist who is incapable of dreaming and thus steals children in hopes of extracting their dreams for himself.

. . . Eugh, that dream-helmet = NO. I am not a tech artistist -_-

Anyway, RIP Monsieur Emilfork. We miss you. I do, at any rate -_-

The character, Krank belongs to messrs. Marc Caro et Jean-Pierre Jeunet.
Daniel Emilfork belongs to himself. Or did. I really do not know O_O

Oh man, he died? That is so sad. City of Lost Children has got to be one of the creepier, warpier movies I've ever seen and I love it for it. He was such a tragic villian, but really twisted at the same time. You really caught his character in not only the movie, but him as a person. Great work as always.

Comments. Are they so hard to do?
:iconswu:
Wow, that is absolutely amazing. I LOVE his expression and the contrasting black and white. I wasn't familiar with Mr. Emilfork but I think this is brilliant.
