THE NEVERENDING STORY - Awesome Poster Art

I was recently talking to a friend about the classic 1984 Wolfgang Peterson-directed film The NeverEnding Story. It might just be the first movie I cried in because it was so damn sad. Remember when Artex died in the Swamp of Saddness. How many kids were scarred for life because of that scene? I still get choked up watching that scene! As sad as that scene was it was still a great movie adventure, and one of my favorite movies growing up. 

Above you'll find an awesome piece of art by Mark Englertpaying tribute to the film called The Ancient One. I remember the feeling I had while watching this scene as a kid. Even though it was simply just a conversation, it was incredibly intense! 

The artist is also working on a couple other of illustrations featuring Bastian and The Childlike Empress. He revealed a couple of teases for those below. I don't know about you, but The Childlike Empress was the first movie crush I ever had when I was a kid. 

Thanks to Collider for the heads up!

Just for the hell of it, here's that scene.
