Well known B movie poster artist Dennis Willman is drawing and coloring the web series, Dennis Willman’s art style brings a believable look to the characters this plus the added aspect of the women lending their likenesses adds to the realism of the heroes and villains in “A Life Behind The Mask”.

Dennis Willman has worked on a host of movie projects and worked with many of today’s top scream queens including April Burril, Bianca Barnett, Elske McCain, Scarlet Salem, and many more.

Rachel Grubb portrays “Jolly” She is the clown that enjoys the fact that she can scare you and your kids at parties and the circus, Jolly also has a twisted sense of humor and while she is criminal she has a odd sense of justice.

Dennis Willman Art Notes:
The character of Jolly is, of course, a play on Harley Quinn and the Joker. Instead of symmetrical patterns I went with offset loops and odd shapes to create the jester motif.

The horns are indeed a nod to Harley Quinn, but their design is a nod to Tim Curry’s portrayal of The Lord of Darkness.

The photo reference of Rachel was a very intense, semi-evil shot that reminded me of how Tim Curry can express death on wheels with a smile.

Rachel can emote like he does, so her face make-up was made to resemble the make-up Curry wore as Pennywise in “IT.” Her fishnet stockings are from a template that I created a few years back that can be distorted and warped to match the shape of the legs (I think I created it for a Ginger-Stein illustration…).
The trick is “mucking up” the template to match the pencil work and the painting of the composition. The balloons are another nod to Pennywise, and I hope the character comes off as fun and unique, yet scary in her own right.

Comic Book/Web Comic, and Rachel Grubb fans will enjoy the latest installment of Rachel Grubb portrayal of “Jolly”; fans are also able to buy Rachel Grubb’s prints that feature the actress as her character that features art work by Dennis Willman.
