For many years we've enjoyed the wonderful covers of Famous Monsters of Filmland, many of which were rendered by the brilliant Basil Gogos.
Enjoy this gallery of his work, compliments of All Sci-Fi.

The charcoal renderings below are phenomenal. Having worked in graphite myself, I have a special appreciation for the perfect use of lights and darks in these great pieces!

In addition to his artwork depicting monsters and horror characters, Basil did quite a few covers for "men's magazines". Nice work, eh?
