Gad, I can’t even remember…I’ve had other freelance sculpting and illustration jobs, but nothing that turned into anything significant. I have the wrong temperament to do work for other people. I did sandpaintings for years, which probably doesn’t count…production work.
I had a comic strip which was published in our local newspaper for a very short time. I thought I wanted to be a “strip” cartoonist until I did that! Oy vey,Though I still dream about finishing my graphic novel.
John and I started selling the Alberti Design prints when I was right out of college.( I really need to post pics of that old line of prints somewhere, I don’t think there is a complete collection online anywhere.There are still a few well hidden prints in our online store http://www.windstoneeditions.com/artprintspg.htm) That was our full time job, and a few years after that we found ourselves with Windstone.
That was a very kind question , thank you!Was anyone able to spot the little ghost in Ghostbusters I was talking about? It is only on the screen for a split second!
Aagh! Yet another reason for me to love that movie? Please, I’m missing the thread . . . where is the ghost?

Those movie creature people keep one humble.. wow. I am not in that league!
John, John’s dad Nick and I did do some small creature stuff on the first “Ghostbusters” movie. There was no cg in them-there days, everything was real latex creatures that were puppeteered, or stop motion. John and nick built the mechanism that raised and stretched the graceful “librarian ghost” into a scary ghoul.I pupeteered her a tiny bit,and I sculpted a little ghost’s face! It is visible on screen for about a nano second. It is the grinning bat-winged one that flys out of the storm drain after the ghosts get released from the ghostbuster’s ghost holding tank. John and Nick got credits!
I got a plastic gorilla skull out of the deal.
Now you gotta rent the movie.I haven’t been able to find the spot 😳 Around 1:09:20 there is a ghost that comes out of the underground subway, and then a mist that comes out of the storm drain and goes into a taxi. Are either of those possibly the scene?

Male Hearth....one day🤞Dream on.Lokie, Scott and I watched it over and over…I did not see a face or ghost in the mist. Neither did he. The only one we saw was the one from the subway too… :scratch:
Melody, is that the one you are talking aobut, or do I need to keep watching it over and over in slow motion? 😮Here’s a screencap of the ghost from the subway, if that helps at all.
Ghostbusters is one of my favorite movies! 😀
That is SO COOL! Thanks for the info, Lokie and Ladycat! 🙂 Now should I confess that the librarian ghost was one of my favorite parts of the movie, even though she scared me half to death? The first three times I saw the film, I couldn’t watch the part where she went all freaky. 😳

Yeah, the aqua colored ghost that comes out of the subway is it. On the big screen, in a theater, it actually has a face you can see, but it is just a blur on video! (or maybe I just remember the film clip I watched of it while they were filming it there) At least the Librarian ghost was on the screen for a while!

Oh wow, cool 🙂 That ghost was there for a lot longer than a nano second 😀
