"1. masque refers to the party, not an archaic spelling of mask,"
While masks weren't always worn the Masque dated to an earlier festive occasion where friends of a nobleman would show up unexpectedly at his home wearing masks and shower him with gifts.
It was a sort of surprise party.
No telling how often these crowds of revellers were mistaken for gangs of bandits and the noblemen set their guards and hounds on them.

The Masque of the Red Death indicates the party was supposedly in honor of the plague that the revellers thought themselves to be safe from behind high walls. Sort of thumbing their noses at death itself.

Thanks! As I like to say, I have strange ideas about "fun".

Been awhile since I've colored anything just for fun.  Tom Sutton's 1967 art really inspired me.  The 2nd page was really tough, because I don't think I've ever seen that much detail in any of his stuff like that.  As you've seen, I'm posting them as I get each page done, and as I'm typing this, I've still got 1-1/2 more to go.

Come to think of it, the 1st page I recall coloring like that (although it was from a much smaller scan, and in Corel Draw), was a Sutton VAMPIRELLA page.  I did that mainly for contrast because my Mom had gotten ahold of the story originally in a MEXICAN reprint, which had some of the WORST coloring I've ever seen!  The art was designed for B&W, but I thought it would be cool to see what it could look like with "proper" coloring.  ;D

Ahh, here we go...

"THE MASQUE OF THE RED DEATH"

For ETHICAL reasons, I have SURGICALLY REMOVED the "host" from this story

and replaced him with one of MY OWN characters,
adding new text & credits to match.
