Nightbreed

I've always been a huge fan of Clive Barker as well as the wonderful artwork by legendary artist Ralph Mcquarrie. I was wondering if anyone has ever seen the 1990 movie Nightbreed and attempted to make a prop of the murals portraying the Nightbreed's history? According to Clive Barker, Ralph essentially portrayed, "...the history of the Breed in symbolic form, painted on an enormous mural. So he's not just the artist, he's actually now the chronicler of the Breed's history, springing as they do from the same seed as we naturals - the naturals being the people who like the Sun and the Breed being the people who rather prefer the Moon."

Just wondering if anyone had some hi-def screenshots of some of the other murals that appeared in the chambers hidden in the necropolis below the cemetery known as Median.Would love to recreate these murals myself. These are the only ones I can find. :confused

Re: Nightbreed artwork?

One of my favorite movies and a huge Clive Barker fan. Still bummed there is no decent R2 DVD release over here in the Netherlands.

Hope to aquire a Decker mask in the future and am currently working on a prop from that movie myself. Should be done soon.​
