Hellboy Storyboard Artist Simeon Wilkins Talks

Ostrich Ink has up a cool interview with Hellboy storyboard artist Simeon Wilkins. Here’s a few snippets…

I went in and met the other storyboard artist and a new concept artist, Paul Prischman and Jeff Rebner. They put us in a room to read the script. Now, I’m kind of a slow reader, especially with scripts – too much imagining and not enough reading. But this time it paid off. The other boarder finished before me and was able to choose his office first. Meaning he took the private nook and I was to share an office with two other guys, concept designer Ty Ellingson and the man himself – Hellboy creator Mike Mignola. It was super freaky, to talk to these guys whose comics I have read and admired for years. I got lunch, and del Toro assigned me a scene. Gave me some thumbnails to work with and off I went to pencil. It was nerve racking to have to draw a character with its creator right next to you.
