I did not create this monster, Mandus came from “Amensia: A Machine for Pigs”, but I was inspired by his story to make this picture of him. A quick summary of the story:
Oswald Mandus was an idealist, a humanitarian, and father. He only wanted to make a better world for humanity and his twin boys. But when he was given a glimpse of what would happen in the next century, how his boys would die horrible deaths in World War I and the terrible atrocities humanity would commit against itself again and again, he lost his mind and came to believe that the only way to save humanity was to sacrifice it. He started by sacrificing his two boys and got to work on the rest of the humanity. He eventually built a machine that would turn the people he sacrificed into crazed half pig half person monstrosities who would then go and bring back more people to sacrifice to his machine. Fortunately, he was stopped by himself on the 31st of December 1899.
This whole project was just a ton of FUN. Fake hearts, fake blood, and fancy suits - what could go wrong?
