Using Maya 2013, Keyshot 4, and Photoshop, I tried to ::faithfully:: recreate one of my favorite illustrations from the book: Scary Stories 3 More Tales to Chill Your Bones. For those of you unfamiliar with these books, they were illustrated by the immensely talented Stephen Gammell with a style so unsettling it was difficult to turn the pages. Here we have one of my favorite illustrations of a ghost who likes to give the raspberry.



For reference, check out the original horrific illustration below:
