If you find yourself in the central Virginia area this month, drop in to The Bridge Art Gallery in Charlottesville, VA to check out my monster exhibit. This exhibit consists of items from my personal collection (life-size figures, movie posters, vintage & newer masks) as well as items created specifically for the exhibit from contributing regional artists. More info on specific events occurring throughout the month listed in the link below:

I see you got your photo issues fixed.
Love the Creature statue! Who sculpted that one?
Sure did. Thanks, Mike. One of the few items that I am unsure on who the artist is. I've seen plenty of resin life-size Creatures out there, but this one is latex and foam-filled with a pvc pipe skeleton. I purchased from a fellow collector that didn't have any information on him, either. The paint work on him is exceptional. If anyone out there has any insight as to his history, I'm all ears. Thanks again!

I wonder why they made it out of latex? That stuff rots, while fiberglass lasts forever. Maybe it was once a suit? Is it all one piece?
Great pix
I wish my own collection room at home looked like this!
