Show of hands, who else loves the original novel Frankenstein, and yet somehow has never watched the 1931 movie with Boris Karloff.
I can’t be the only one, can I?

So, The Glass Scientists by Sage Cotugno is one of my absolute favourite Jekyll and Hyde stories and I would highly recommend it.
It has the same tone of lighthearted silliness mixed with genuine tragedy which I loved about the original novella
I gives Jekyll and Hyde both ample screentime so you get to see both of their perspectives, and get to know them both as people
It doesn't play the "Jekyll's pure good, Hyde's pure bad" card, which I appreciate
The character designs are great and Hyde's facial expressions are priceless!
It keeps in the queer narrative, which is a major part for many people reading the novella but I haven't seen other adaptations do it very well
It has a werewolf, and he's a very nice and sweet young man
And it's Webcomic, so it's free to read on the internet!
Just a little sketch of Henry Jekyll.
Sir Galahad from Arthurian Legend.
The red part of his outfit is a Gambeson, a type of padded fabric armour worn by itself or under metal plate armour. ^_^
(I'm also slightly proud of how weird that sword hilt design ended up.)
I've been working on a little personal project I set myself recently for fun and to add some sparkle to my illustration portfolio ✨ I'll be posting the rest of the art soon but for now here's a sneak peek!
Mr. Utterson the lawyer.
Mr Edward Hyde in modern clothing. Apparently my idea of modern is 1992.
(Sketch of Edward Hyde as I try to figure out how to draw his body hair)
I like how the pose turned out on this one, I think most of his face being hidden and his character being shown more in body language works well for Hyde
as a child being told "the moon controls the tides" with no additional explanation was like. oh okay. you want me to believe in magic? you're talking about magic right now? okay. fine
♥ Details ♥
These commissions are for a fully custom bespoke digital painting.
Please note I only accept payments through PayPal Me. I accept payment in instalments but an upfront payment of at least half the full price is required. Payments are non-refundable once I've started work on the commission.
Once purchased, contact me in a private message on here with pictures and/or any other information you'd like me to include. Because of the way I draw each commission entirely from scratch, reference photos don't need to be high resolution or in the right pose, and I can draw people in different clothing than in the photo, as well as fantasy elements such as elf ears, mermaid tails, and wings can be added! If you don't have a reference photo don't worry, I can also draw entirely from descriptions without photos! :)
The commissioned painting would have a simplistic background but can include props (teacup, broomstick, etc)
I would show you the work in progress at different stages so you can see if there are any changes you'd like made :)
I will send you the finished painting as high res digital files in both png and jpeg formats. If you require the painting to be a specific size and/or dimensions please let me know at the beginning of the commission so I can sort that out
Watermark is only on the example paintings, the painting you receive will not have a watermark on it, but will still have my signature.
The painting will usually take around two to three weeks from start to finish, though complex paintings or paintings with several people may take longer, so if you're buying it as a gift make sure you order with enough time :)
I will NOT accept commissions that include: Mature themes. Excessive Violence or Cruelty. Fetish. Politics.
Artist retains the right to turn down any commissions.
Purchased portrait is for non commercial use only.
If you have any further questions, feel free to message me Thank you for stopping by ♥
