I Am Not An Animal! I Am A Human Being! I...am...a Man! - The Boogeyman 1978 - 06-03-2011
I got this from my good buddy Matt, and it is just incredible. Joe Riley was such an amazing artist & we lost him much too soon. R.I.P. Joe.
This copy was painted and haired by Conor McCullagh of Nightmares Etc. The paint job and hand punched hair are both top notch.
I have always been fascinated & intrigued by the story of Joseph Merrick. He was an amazing man that was born with this horrible deformity. He showed that a man should be judged by his actions, and not his appearance. He was great. R.I.P. Joseph Merrick.
This piece is truly amazing and I feel lucky to own it. Thanks a ton, Matt.
Enjoy!

Amazing score Donnie!
I own one these also and it's never leaving my collection.
Like you I have a huge amount of respect for John Merrick. I love the movie also, even if it did make me cry at the end.
Congrats buddy!

The overall paintwork is fantastic, wouldn't expect any less from Conor. Something about the paint on the teeth though, really bug me.
