Description

I have been fascinated with the legend of Sasquatch since I went running out of the theatre while watching 'The Legend of Boggy Creek' when it premiered in 1972. And, I haven't been the same since.

I asked Vincent to create his take on Ralph McQuarrie's iconic movie poster for Boggy Creek, and this is the result. As always, Vincent had to out-do himself by adding skulls from the Growler's swamp diet - snapping turtle, crow, Armadillo,.... The hair and fingers are real zingers, too.

Approx 12" tall

Bronze

This is a heavy duty sculpt. Fits with the sepia toned poster image.

Amra the Lion ran from a cinema??? Must have been a bit of a shock though to a young barbarian.

You would think being born on a battlefield would have steeled me a bit better...perhaps it was a reminder of birth; all that hair and screaming....
