If one has watched any Guillermo Del Toro interview, you can sense the filmmaker’s brain is working a mile a minute, teeming with creativity, a quality clearly transferring over to his feature films. To assist him with this process he has turned to leather bound notebooks where he jots down the sketches of these fantasy worlds and creatures.
While he nearly lost it in a cab a few years back (resulting in a $900 tip upon its return), we’ve now got a batch of the art available to view online. Ranging from his work on the Blade and Hellboy franchises, as well as his acclaimed Pan’s Labyrinth, and all the way up to this summer’s Pacific Rim and his stalled adaptation of H.P. Lovecraft‘s At the Mountains of Madness, check out the gallery below thanks to Film.com.
Which of the sketches are your favorite?
