October 25, 2004 - ReelArt Studios is releasing THE BLACK FOREST Heroes Bust this November for all fans of classic horror adventure. This hefty resin bust stands over 9 inches tall and weighs in at over 3.5 pounds and features a paint scheme following the black and white wash look of Neil Voke's distinctive cinematic styled artwork. Other features include a sword cast in white metal and non scuff pads on the base. The bust is limited and numbered to an edition of 1500 pieces.

THE BLACK FOREST is an acclaimed graphic novel now in its second printing from the creative team of writers Todd Livingston and Robert Tinnell and artist Neil Vokes... The team claims that this will be an ongoing project over the years to come. We can expect to see our heroes Jack Shannon, the dashing young aviator; Archie Caldwell, the intrepid stage magician; and the Frankenstein Monster as early as 2005.

Sculptor Shawn Nagle has proved once again why he is ranked at the top of his field by tranferring Vokes' artistic vision into a three dimensional reality. Vokes was quoted as saying, "Hey, you're making my year with these bad boys!" ReelArt Studios owner, Michael Hudson says, "It has been a blast working with this mad genius of a creative team. Go out and buy a copy of their new book, THE WICKED WEST today. You won't be sorry. These guys can turn a horror yarn like nobody going today!"
