This is such a cool idea! Now I'm imagining a pop up book based on Victor's research notes with anatomical drawings and scribbled ravings in the margins!
Guys heres my attempt at a pop up book

This is one of my favorite paintings I've done.
These are Huldra or Hulderfolk from Scandinavian folklore. Hulderfolk are seductive forest spirits and their name translates loosely to "hidden" or "secret". They're said to look like normal women with the only difference being the hole in their back that resembles a hollowed tree and the long cow-like tail which they hide under their skirts. If you encounter a Huldra and treat her with respect, she will be very helpful (sharing the best fishing spots or tending to your charcoal kiln), but mistreat her and the punishment will be severe (being beaten to death with her tail or taken into the mountains never to be seen again).
Goddamnit Victor, just because your a genius in science doesn’t mean your a genius in other aspects of life!
Thought I’d post another drawing of the creature now that I’ve finished Frankenstein! Hope you enjoy it! (I made the bird tiny for scale to show how big he is)
I said I was gonna do it… and I did.
Thank you @marquisedemasque and everyone who got me to 25 reblogs!
Okay so I just thought of an idea for a TV show based on Frankenstein where it follows the creature on his journey as he learns about the world, but it focuses on his appearance, specifically his body parts.
Like each episode would be about a different body part that Victor used to make him and it cuts between present day with the creature and the past with the person that body part originally belonged to. The episode goes on to show what that person's life was like, how they acted, and eventually how they died.
For example: the creature's hands belonged to a poor, but talented painter and the episode focuses on the creature using his hands (building shelter, making fire, drawing in the dirt with a stick, etc).
Or the creature's face/head belonged to a beautiful male prostitute and the episode shows the similarities/contrast with how he was treated and how the creature is treated.
A quick comic about OPLA Chopper🦌 And maybe a little Zosan😏
Once more for those in the back.
I changed it a little, don't know if it's for better or worse but it is what it is
Like, here's how I think a conversation with these two would go:
Ok so hot take, but I don't like the phrase "Modern Prometheus" when describing Victor Frankenstein. Because unlike Victor, Prometheus actually cared about his creations (humanity) and sought to protect them (gave them fire). And when he was found out by Zeus, he took responsibility for his actions, but didn't apologize for doing what he thought was right. Sure Victor created life, but he abandoned it for looking at him funny.
