Weekend Wayback: GHOSTBUSTERS 2, 1989


This week is the thirteenth installment of Weekend Wayback, where I gaze back into the archives, trying to keep an eye on where I was, in appreciation of where I am, and where I could go.

Well, I missed last week's Weekend Wayback due to work obligations, and really haven't posted here since. Hopefully blog posts will turn around in the next few weeks, and you'll see s'more artwork more frequently.

Today being Halloween, I search for something appropriate to the day - and this is it.

While it isn't dated, I know I was pretty into drawing the Ghostbusters right around the time the second film came out, which was 1989, so I'm guessing this is from then.

A little bit of everything in this pic, from Ghostbusters HQ on the left (water damaged, sadly), the logo, the slime in the sewers, the portrait of Vigo, the Ecto-1, Winston Zeddemore, Ray Stantz, Egon Spengler, Peter Venkman, and Slimer (and the Statue of Liberty in the distance).

Big fan of the Ghostbusters back then. Even went as a Ghostbuster one Halloween, with my mom stitching a homemade Ghostbusters 2 patch on a shirt from a thrift store, and me going out and buying a toy proton pack.

Just got back from taking the kids out Trick o' Treating. You should do the same - don't forget your inner child on a day like today. They want candy too.
