One of my favorite stock artists submitted some stock recently and hinted that he would love to see a "Jack the Ripper" type image done with one of his excellent stock images. I was up for it and I liked the idea so much that I have a sequel to this image already in the works.

Jack was no dull boy....Jack was a sick sick man credited with being the first serial killer thanks to being the first murderer made known to the general public via newspapers. His identity is still a mystery .....we still hold on to his mystery and keep looking for answers which is why he is one of the most studied serial killers of all time. He has become in some ways like a character in a story....a romantic figure, but there was nothing romantic in the grisly murders he committed, the prejudice he harbored for his victims or the fear he caused Londoners.

This is image is supposed to depict Jack prior to his very first noted murder on Bucks Row in East London. I know it's not perfect, but I had fun putting it together and working on it....and thanks to Caustic for setting me on the path and I hope he likes what I came up with even though it wasn't exactly what he had pictured.
