Dracula

For me, Bela Lugosi is the definitive Dracula. I went off on my own design for the background-- wanting something to reflect Dracula's essence. Dracula is dark and cold, so I opted for a black marble wall. Interesting element about his expression-- if you cover the shadowed, left half of his face, his expression is one of fear. Cover the lighted, right half, and his expression is one of anger. Together they create that ominous leer only Lugosi could deliver.

very cool effect you created with the light and dark halves of his face.The marble in the background looks like mist or smoke around him either way its very cool

That is very cool! The way you did two different expressions in one portrait. I have never seen that, I am very impressed
