As the project draws to a close, we here at The Monster Charity Project wish to express our thanks to everyone who helped and supported the project, from those of you who generously donated stuff to help us to those who worked with us to support our cause.
A few special thank yous are in order though. Firstly to the SVFX department at Bolton University for generously creating and donating the original Frankenstein busts. Another to all the artists for donating their amazing skills, time and effort to create 28 unique, beautiful and truly incredible Frankenstein busts. Another to the crew working hard running things behind the scenes to make sure it all went smoothly.
Without everyone involved in this project we would not have been able to do it.
Another to all the celebrities that endorsed the busts. And lastly a special thank you to the organisers of Horror Con UK, Carlisle Comic Con, Birmingham and Liverpool Horror Cons and Showmasters for giving us space to showcase the busts at their conventions. Was great being able to travel the country attending different conventions showing fans the fantastic work the artists had done.
And for those of you who were lucky enough to win a bust in the online auction we hope you enjoy them and love them as much as we all do 😊

As disappointed as we are that we have to say goodbye to Frank, we are happy and excited to make a start on our next project. Head over to The Protocol Droid Project for news and regular updates on it.

We are an art based charity project that works to bring movie fans something different for a good cause.
Working closely with some of the best special effects artists in the U.K, Ireland and Sweden, 28 one of a kind Frankenstein busts have been created in order to raise money for the charity 'Make A Wish UK'. The original busts were generously made and donated by the SVFX department at Bolton University, the molds used were then destroyed making sure these couldn't be replicated, making them truly one of a kind. They were then given to the artists to get creative with, and have been transformed into incredible pieces of art!
We unveiled the busts to you all at Horror Con UK in Sheffield and have been lucky enough to have toured the UK displaying them at several other conventions throughout 2017.
Each amazing bust has been endorsed by a celebrity and will come with a signed certificate. Some of the endorsements include John Carpenter, Teri McMinn, Ann Mahoney, Lou Ferrigno, Dave Prowse, Sid Haig, John Dugan, Cassandra Peterson, Nicolas Vince, Ami James and many more!
They are now being auctioned off on ebay to the highest bidders world wide with all proceeds going to Make A Wish UK. One was auctioned off recently at Birmingham Horror Con and another was raffled off at the same event. The online auction for the remaining 26 busts will finish Monday 13th November 2017.
You can bid on the busts here-
