This week I finally have the incredible creature designer/sculptor/illustrator David Meng on the show! We discuss how he got into the film industry, his artistic childhood, why we love monsters, spending 7 1/2 years in New Zealand at WETA, working with Guillermo del Toro on Pacific Rim, The Shape of Water and Crimson Peak, his high hopes for his new Patreon (https://www.patreon.com/mengmonsters) and lots more! A great conversation with a super talented monster man!
Also, a quick art life update.
