A Little Love for Master Doodler Roy Krenkel 0

[ThothAmon]

Roy Krenkel apparently didn’t like deadlines but man could he draw.  Maybe it’s because Frazetta art was out of sight when I began collecting but I’ve been into Krenkel for a long time.  I’ll share some from those I’ve acquired over the years.  Hope others share as well.

Well past doodle.

The only Krenkel art that I own is printed inside some old books, but man his stuff is wonderful.

Bought plenty of it from you. 

Probably this little gem.

I am also a big fan of Krenkel's artwork, and his collaborations with Williamson and Frazetta are nothing short of amazing as are the works that you have presented here, ThothAmon.

I bought this work many years ago from a comic dealer at SDCC.

I have often looked at this splash and can't help thinking what Williamson ruined by adding his artwork.

Krenkel brought it to Williamson and said that he needed Al to add a flying snake to complete the piece.

Anyone see this nice pencil that sold on eBay.  Pretty high closing price for Krenkel but not nearly what it should be worth.

Few I’ve acquired over the last while.

To clarify my meaning. Krenkel’ s art was covered by Williamson’s panel and word balloons. I’d love to have seen the full rendering, especially because there is so little Krenkel comic art. No slight on Williamson or this particular panel.

Here is one of my Krenkel preliminary sketches. I think this one was for  ERB's At the Earth's Core. Roy did so many drawings for nearly every project that there are variations of all kinds in many cases. I always love looking at his work and the new book is just great-but all of his books are great in my opinion-I never tire of looking at his stuff.

Respect.  The Xu Shu to Frazetta's Zhuge Liang (a reference for Three Kingdoms lovers).

 Some really great Krenkel pieces in your collection! Congratulations.
