Thank you for letting us see him at the Monsterpalooza, Mr. Hill. I wished the "Museum" where he was displayed wasn't so dark so I could see more
of the excelent work you did on him. I heard that Sara Karloff started crying when she saw him.
Unfortunately I didn't get a chance to meet you and get a couple of autographs for my model kits you sculpted. Hopefully they'll have another next year. Michael |

That is excellent. It's exactly the hues I picture for him in the original film

Mr. Hill, I think your work here transcends traditional sculpture into the realm of something yet higher (in much the
manner as, in the film, Henry Frankenstein crossed a boundary in science), Your meticulous silicone casting (and subtle colorings of same) of your already
fantastic head-and-torso sculpt just yields a jaw-dropping effect! It's so real, it's positively surreal! I'm sure that if this sculpture were to
be somehow ported back into time and greet Jack Pierce some morning in 1931, he would recognize it in a heartbeat and, what's more, pat himself on the back
for having had one of his finest days ever!

Looks exactly like the realistic Duane Hanson technique, though he used real, living persons to make his vinyl & fiberglass casts. I saw his works here in
NYC years ago, and at even one inch distance from them there was a 100% probability that they were real flesh & blood ... maybe a HOUSE OF WAX
under the resin?

Sirs...
I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your kind comments. To be appreciated in this way makes every 16 hour day of inhaling toxic chemicals worth every moment. Mike |

This looks so real!! Are you selling a kit of this? I want one in my house. Just kidding but that would be conversation piece for sure.

That's a great work of art, technically and conceptually. I saw it at Monsterpalooza, and in natural light it looks even more "real".

ABSOLUTELY ASTOUNDING! It looks so real! Maybe it is real and we are all fake! Gives
one pause, doesn't it?
Congratulations on another Mega-Masterpiece, Mike! |
