Monster No. 28: “Escort”

I was watching a History Channel show about the sinking of the Bismarck (WWII German battleship) which gave me the idea for the smokestacks.

The actual monster started off as a monkey with a tail. I have no idea how it grew wings.

“Escort” is a bit more perspective heavy than my other pieces; it’s inspired by Art Deco era art which focused on the grandeur of the machines and other accomplishments of man.
