One of Roy Ashton's early charcoal and ink sketches for the special effects make-up of the werewolf in the film 'The Curse of the Werewolf' (1961). This sketch illustrates his meticulous attention to detail as he takes the characteristics of the front paws of a wolf, which he had previously photographed, and overlays them onto a human hand.
