Grinner Reference


Grinner Costume Reference

Some Grinner costume reference courtesy of Boris Karloff and some other black and white dudes:

Grinner Concept

Here is a Grinner in the Profondo Rosso style of painting with a kind of skinny suit.  I'll have a look for wardrobe references and if anyone has any suggestions for something different get 'em posted!

'Profondo Rosso'

I was watching the mad mad film which is 'Profondo Rosso' last night and thought this scene was good inspiration for the use of frames which hold mirrors and paintings and how the two can be confused.

The story is that the guy witnessed a murder and thought he saw was something of importance in a painting which later disappeared.  It turns out that what he saw was a mirror with the reflection of the murderer stood against a painting.  Sorry I should have called 'spoiler alert' by now - hah.

Also I quite like the faces as Grinner inspiration - although they ain't doing much grinning.
