Frank Frazetta Stein Mug

First, a huge and \m/ HEAVY \m/ thanks to Alex Flores of Sinistre Division for granting me the opportunity to make his stein mug a post for Channel 13.

Now, onwards to the bloody and ravage battle that lays ahead.

Frank Frazetta, a name in the world of art and comics that is renowned for his unique artwork. From the comics he drew, to the movie posters that dared add the dark element of his twisted sense of imagery, and his many commissioned art pieces that live on today and influenced many others.

Today we take a look at what is arguably the most Metal stein mug this side of a victorious battlefield of slain warriors and goblins.

Introducing the Frank Frazetta Stein Mug.

When Alex showed me this cup of unholy magnitude of awesomeness, I was left baffled by how something like this can exist in the mortal realm known as man.

Mind you, Alex hasn't utilized the container for consumption purposes, and it seems he chose the right path as drinking out of this will probably kill you regardless if your drinking cyanide laced mead, or just plain old orange juice.

One of the few cups that can not only give my trusted official Channel 13 Chalice a run for its money, but overtake it by leaps and bounds of axes being hurled at it. A major cliff note about this mug is that very few beverages are worthy of basking in its internal space.

The details is a given, since it is a homage to one of the art worlds most Metal painters, and this cup is fit for the Gods in Valhalla/The Underworld/Metal/any other place that is robust with ash and blood.

The handle was not spared the Frazetta treatment. Looks like it belongs on a sword or axe, and a big one at that.

If I was to say what would be the most defining feature of this mug, it is the DETAILS6DETAILS6DETAILS6DEATILS! From the Bird of Prey with its majestic wings spread out...

...to the pile of skulls encircling the bottom part of the cup...

...and to the "Frazetta" signature emblazoned on the cup, this truly is a Metalheads cup of nectar consumption.

Even the thumb-lifter was not spared the forge of rapture.

Upon lifting the helmet, I beg thee to consume my brain for the eternal knowledge known as damnation.

One thing I need to say is the horns and its pickelhaube spike can be utilized as weapons to kill somebody, in case an argument over which beer is best gets too violent and an equalizer is within (or in this metaphoric example, already) in hands reach.

I may have no brains, but that's only due to the knowledge I seek to fulfill my intellect.

Final Verdict: A mug capable of handling only the best and most deadly liquids from the pits of hell to the halls of Valhalla, and able to be utilized to kill of those who dare bring a inferior beverage to an argument is definitely a champion in the world of Heavy Metal \m/
