Description
Phantom of the Opera sketch duuuump!!!
Loads and loads of sketches; some that have been floating around for a while and others based on the suggestions that were sent to me in response to the journal post (thank you everyone!)
I’m more or less going to let the drawings speak for themselves, as, well, you know… there are so many! Also, yes, I included the previously posted colour version of Erik and have changed his eyes yet again. Urgh, I don’t know… I personally put a lot of emphasis on a character’s eyes, they say so much about a personality, and Erik’s have been such a challenge to work out because the description of them varies in the book (and I’m a traditionalist, which means that I wish to stay true to the original). I think I’m done now though. So long as he continues to stare fixedly with a glowering look, I’m happy.
Yeah, I’ve just realised that I seem to have a thing for drawing Erik just standing around. Boooo! He should be stalking between props or punjabbing a scene-shifter or something. Ha ha ha!

You know, I really enjoy the diversity of concepts for The Phantom. Some do him as flesh in blood, like in the 2004 movie and musical, and hen others do it as that of the old, original one where he appears more as a skeleton or corpse/vampire-like being. (Of course, those are just what I think the old one looks like anyways.) Ever so, I really love your style of drawings and I love this!

That is very great thing. Besides, corpse-phantom looks so much more out-there and mysterious.

Just like how I envisioned the original Erik! Not just at of his faces being a little messed up, but everything about him deformed and almost skeletal. Nice job and I like your enterpretation of the other characters as well. Great job!

Ahhh, but Erik is one of those characters that always look good, no matter what he's doing.
A little nuts maybe, but so am I... :}

I love the illustration from his visit to the Persian at the end of the book. ;A;

Ha ha, he is supposed to be a little 'Red Death' figure, but everyone viewed him as being Mexican. This amuses me greatly!
