the Zombie pinball back glass is clearly a monster mash:) love those when done well
back outside is clearly inspired from alice and all that entails, apocalypse now, from boone, dia de muerta, very nice, art nouveau in boundary, partially, but a pastel textured centerpiece
For the yatagarasu, almost like a goth reply to arriety nice
