The Elvis Trio

Hi all,


This piece of blue suede Cadillac-induced horror is a concept illustration I did for a story called Straight to Hell, written by one Mr. Gary Raisor.  Please allow me the pleasure of introducing you to the gentlemen of this tale:

Starting off to the left is Reverend Sonny, wearing a fashionably designed Vegas-style Elvis jumpsuit with matching cane, oxygen tank and single-pump shotgun...

Pulling up the rear is Cadillac Elvis,  hanging tall and composed of bits and pieces of Caddy's gone by...

And shortest, but not least, is the finest of all Elvis imitating dwarves who goes by the title of Vernon.

And there we have it.  The whole gang.  Hope you all enjoyed our time together and perhaps one day we'll cross paths again, down the corridors of the Heartbreak Hotel.

- D
